Sách Logic Design Quick Start Handbook

Navigating This Book
This book was written for both the professional engineer who has never
designed using programmable logic devices and for the new engineer embark-
ing on an exciting career in electronics design.
To accommodate these two audiences, we offer the following navigation
section, to help you decide in advance which sections would be most useful.
CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
Chapter 1 is an overview of how and where PLDs are used. It gives a brief
history of programmable logic devices and goes on to describe the different
ways of designing with PLDs.
CHAPTER 2: XILINX SOLUTIONS
Chapter 2 describes the products and services offered by Xilinx to ensure
that your PLD designs enable a time-to-market advantage, design flexibility,
and system future-proofing. The Xilinx portfolio includes CPLD and FPGA
devices, design software, design services and support, and IP cores.
CHAPTER 3: WEBPACK ISE DESIGN SOFTWARE
Xilinx WebPACK ISE design software offers a complete design suite based
on the Xilinx Foundation ISE series software. Chapter 3 describes how to
install the software and what each module does.
CHAPTER 4: WEBPACK ISE DESIGN ENTRY
Chapter 4 is a step-by-step approach to your first design. The following
pages are intended to demonstrate the basic PLD design entry implementa-
tion process.

CHAPTER 5: IMPLEMENTING CPLDS
Chapter 5 discusses the synthesis and implementation process for CPLDs.
The design targets a CoolRunner™-II CPLD.
CHAPTER 6: IMPLEMENTING FPGAS
Chapter 6 takes the VHDL or schematic design through to a working physi-
cal device. The design is the same design as described in previous chapters,
but instead targets a Spartan™-3 FPGA.
CHAPTER 7: DESIGN REFERENCE BANK
Chapter 7, the final chapter, contains a useful list of design examples and
applications that will give you a jump start into your future programmable
logic designs. This section also offers pointers on where to look for and
download code and search for IP cores from the Xilinx website.
