I am involved in the writing of a new book on programmable logic
devices and related technology, and am looking for some good
design examples to include in the book. The examples I am seeking
could be expressed using any PLD design language or format, as
long as they are clear and easy to understand without detailed
knowledge about the system in which the programmed PLDs are used.
Of particular interest are designs that utilize multiple devices,
or implement unusual (non-glue logic) circuits such as state
machines, funny counters, ALU functions, or other fun stuff.
I am also interested in designs that use some of the more complex
devices, such as the Altera, Cypress, EXEL, or Xilinx devices.
Hobbyist-level designs are welcomed (I have noticed some fun
postings on car gadgets, for example) if they can help to
demonstrate a useful design or implementation idea.
If you have something interesting to share, please email me a
brief description of the design and the methods and design tools
used to create it. Please don't post, as I rarely have time to
read this stuff.
Selected designs will, of course, get due credit in the book,
and a free copy when it is published. Please do not send me
designs that are proprietary unless you will be able to provide
a release from the design's owner (I can provide the appropriate
release form, if needed).
