[sci.electronics] Seeking PLD Design Examples...

dbp@Data-IO.COM (Dave Pellerin) (08/19/89)

    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).
