This textbook teaches students techniques for the design of advanced digital systems using Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs). The authors focus on communication between FPGAs and peripheral devices (such as EEPROM, analog-to-digital converters, sensors, digital-to-analog converters, displays etc.) and in particular state machines and timed state machines for the implementation of serial communication protocols, such as UART, SPI, I²C, and display protocols, such as VGA, HDMI. VHDL is used as the programming language and all topics are covered in a structured, step-by-step...

This textbook provides a straightforward, clear explanation of probability and random variables for communications engineering students. The author focuses on the most essential subjects of probability and random variables, eliminating unnecessary details of this difficult subject. After an introduction to the topic, the author covers the essentials of experiments, sample spaces, events, and probability laws, while investigating how they relate to communications engineering work. He goes on to discuss total probability theorems, after which he covers discrete random variables and...

This book provides comprehensive detail about modern C programming, including the standards C99, C11, C17, C23, reflecting recent updates. The book features a number of targeted examples, atomic data types, and threads. After covering the standards of C, the author explains data types, operators, loops, conditional statements, functions, pointers, and more. The book is intended primarily for electrical and hardware engineers looking to use or update their knowledge of modern C programming.
