| Summary |
"CPU Design: Answers to Frequently Asked Questions describes the basic concepts and techniques used when building a microprocessor. This book is written primarily for undergraduate as well as graduate students and design engineers for use as a quick reference guide. Readers will be exposed to an effective processor design methodology. Some of the topics covered in the book include techniques to fix timing of a critical path, procedures to reduce power dissipation in a block, typical processor design flowcharts, concepts of caches, methods to fix mintime violations and noise violations, and concepts of flops and latches. In addition information such as various benchmarks used for CPU performance evaluations, tools used in processor design and concepts of Verilog and Verilog coding guidelines are all detailed. CPU Design is a handy, easily accessible resource for anyone involved in CPU design engineering."--BOOK JACKET |
