Finite State Machine Datapath Design, Optimization, and Implementation

Más información sobre el libro

The book delves into the intricacies of designing and optimizing finite state machine (FSM) and datapath implementations, focusing on performance challenges like clock skew and the benefits of pipelining. It covers essential concepts such as latency and throughput, using dataflow graphs and scheduling tables to illustrate resource trade-offs in digital signal processing. Additionally, it addresses design considerations for various memory types in ASICs and FPGAs, providing practical examples in Verilog code and block diagrams, suitable for those familiar with digital design techniques.
