Cell Phones are to be turned off during class. Lecture Topics Schedule (Tentative): Review of Logic Design and Intro. To VHDL, Notes (3 weeks) RTL/ Data Path and Control Level of Design and VHDL, Notes (3 weeks) Instruction Set Principles and MIPS, Chapter 1 and Appendix B Topics (2 weeks ) CPU Design, Notes and Appendix A Topics (3 weeks) Memory System Design Appendix C Topics (2 weeks ) I/O and Current Architectures Notes (1 week) Laboratory Topics Schedule: Lab will begin in the second week. This is the first offering of this co-located course. The laboratory component is structured as an open lab. Laboratory assistants will be in the laboratory, Rm EN1-257, at specified times (EEL 4768C lab sections times ) to assist in the coding and the interpretation of results. The laboratory exercises will be presented in class and performance will be evaluated by completion and reporting. Laboratory topics will also be included in homework, quizzes and exams. There will be five assignments on the following topics:VHDL - Introductory Examples (6 weeks). VHDL - Simple Microcomputer (SM) Design Project. (3 weeks). VHDL - Extension of the Simple Microcomputer (3 weeks)
