Digital Electronics and Logic Design: Sharma, Dr. Sanjay Kumar
Programmable Logic and HDL Briefing While Sharma’s core focus is on logic principles, modern design workflows increasingly use hardware description languages (HDLs) like VHDL and Verilog. The book introduces the concept of programmable logic and how HDL-based design maps logical descriptions to silicon, highlighting simulation, synthesis, and verification steps that ensure correct hardware behavior before fabrication.
Combinational Logic Circuits Combinational circuits produce outputs that depend only on current inputs. Fundamental building blocks include encoders, decoders, multiplexers, demultiplexers, adders, subtractors, and comparators. The book presents design procedures: specification, truth-table derivation, simplification, and implementation with gates or programmable logic. Practical examples—such as designing binary adders using full- and half-adder modules—illustrate modular design and scalability.
