We recommend the book below for a basic introduction to Verilog: Samir Palnitkar, Verilog HDL, Pearson Education (2nd edition)L1: 6.111 Spring 2008 4Introductory Digital Systems Laboratory6.111 Goals and Prerequisite6.111 Goals and Prerequisite Design and Implement Complex Digital Systems Fundamentals of logic design : combinational and sequential blocks System integration with multiple components (memories, discrete components, FPGAs, etc.) Use a Hardware Design Language (Verilog) for digital design Interfacing issues with analog components (ADC, DAC, sensors, etc.) Understand different design metrics: component/gate count and implementation area, switching speed, energy dissipation and power Understand different design methodologies and mapping strategies(discrete logic, FPGAs vs. custom integrated circuits) Design for test Demonstrate a large scale digital or mixed-signal system Prerequisite Prior digital design experience is NOT Required 6.004 is not a prerequisite! Take 6.004 before 6.111 or Take 6.004 after 6.111 or Take both in the same term Must have basic background in circuit theory Some basic material might be a review for those who have taken 6.004L1: 6.111 Spring 2008 5Introductory Digital Systems LaboratoryOverview of LabsOverview of Labs Lab 1: Basics of Digital Logic (Discrete Devices) Learn about lab equipment in the Digital Lab (38-600): oscilloscopes and logic analyzers Experiment with logic gates, flip-flops, device characterization Introduction to Verilog Lab 2: Simple FSM (Traffic Light / Car Alarm Controller) Design and implement simple Finite State Machines (FSM) Use Verilog to program an FPGA Report and its revision will be evaluated for CI-M Lab 3: Simple FSM (Memory Tester) Learn how to use an SRAM and testing techniques Lab 4: Complex FSM (Pong Game) Design a system with multiple FSMs (Major/Minor FSM) Video interfaceL1: 6.111 Spring 2008 6Introductory Digital Systems LaboratoryFinal ProjectFinal Project Done in groups of two or three Open ended You and the staff negotiate a project proposal Must emphasize digital concepts, but inclusion of analog interfaces (e.g., data converters, sensors or motors) common and often desirable Proposal Conference Design Review(s) Design presentation in class (% of the final grade for the in-class presentation) Top projects will be considered for design awards Staff will provide help with project definition and scope, design, debugging, and testing It is extremely difficult for a student to receive an A without completing the final project.L1: 6.111 Spring 2008 7Introductory Digital Systems LaboratoryGrading and CollaborationGrading and Collaboration Grading Policy Approximate breakdown:z Quiz 10%z 3 Problem Sets 3%z 4 Lab exercises Lab 1 9% Lab 2 10% Lab 3 8% Lab 4 11%z Writing (Lab 2 revision- part of CIM requirement) 10%z Participation (lecture, recitation, project presentations) 3%z Final Project 36% We impose late penalties Labs are penalized 20% per day Final Project MUST be done on time Collaboration Discuss labs with anyone (staff, former students, other students, etc.)z Then do them individuallyz Do not copy anything, including computer files, from anyone else Collaboration (with your partners) on the project is desirablez Project reports should be joint with individual authors specified for each sectionz Copy anything you want (with attribution) for your project reportL1: 6.111 Spring 2008 8Introductory Digital Systems LaboratoryThe First ComputerThe First Computer The first digital systems were mechanical and used base-10 representation.
