Logic Design Laboratory

This lab mainly deals with realization of different digital circuits on the IC trainer board, the building blocks of the digital circuits i.e. gates are manufactured into 14 or 16 pin IC packages, which are useful in implementing the design. The set of experiments for this lab, can be classified into experiments related to combinational circuits and experiments related to sequential circuits.

Combinational circuits are the circuits whose output depends only on present state input, some of the examples are half/full adder, half/full subtractor, parallel adder, magnitude comparator, binary to gray convertor vise versa, multiplexer, Demultiplexer, encoder and decoder circuits. Whereas, in sequential circuits, the present state output depends on present input as well as past output.

HDL Lab

VHDL is a hardware description language suitable for describing digital circuits at the algorithmic, register transfer, and gate levels. It enables event-driven simulation and provides concepts for describing circuit hierarchy, concurrency, and time in addition to features known from programming languages. The course teaches the most important language constructs and their proper usage for hardware description. Verilog is another hardware description language which is also used to implement logic design on the hardware.

By describing the design in a high-level (=easy to understand) language, we can simulate our design before we manufacture it. This allows us to catch design errors, i.e., that the design does not work as we thought it would.

By letting a tool convert the high-level description into hardware (assuming that we can mathematically prove that the tool works correctly – which is impossible today), we can then guarantee that what we have simulated is actually what we get.

The course emphasizes challenges in digital system design in the presence of new changing technologies. Design principles to be covered include the use of hardware description languages (VHDL), simulation, controller synthesis, technology mapping, hardware prototyping, design for testability, and design for reliability.

ModelSim simulator is used for the simulation of programs. Xilinx ISE platforms are used for circuit design and synthesis and to configure the target device.
