scope:

In this volume drawn from the VLSI Handbook, the focus is on logic design and compound semiconductor digital integrated circuit technology. Expert discussions cover topics ranging from the basics of logic expressions and switching theory to sophisticated programmable logic devices and the design of GaAs MESFET and HEMT logic circuits. Logic Design emphasizes the key concepts, models, and equations that enable design engineers to analyze, design, and predict the behavior of large-scale systems. Highlights include a comparison of different design approaches, over 250 illustrations, and a multitude of detailed logic design examples.
