This course is a more in depth coverage of current logic design and verification methodologies using a modern hardware description language (HDL). Topics include coding for different levels of abstraction; implementation of arithmetic circuits and finite state machines, hierarchical designs, reusable component design, data and control path, best coding practices, design constraints and verification. The laboratories are designed to illustrate concepts, reinforce analysis and design skills, and develop instrumentation techniques associated with the lecture topics.

This project-based course is the culmination of the curriculum capstone experience for the computer engineering technology major. This course will be focused around a project that includes product ideation, project/resource management techniques, and best practices; system level specification, modeling, partition, and design; team collaboration and communication; best documentation practices; industry level coding practices; hardware and software co-design methodologies; design reuse and intellectual property creation; design verification and validation; and design sign-off.
