This is a course on the design of large digital systems. Digital systems lie at the heart of almost any electronic system including consumer devices, cell-phones, signal processing systems, computers, biomedical devices, etc. This course will provide the opportunity to design real digital systems containing significant amounts of hardware and software.

Most of the course will be focused on a design project, where you will have the opportunity to design a real system using state-of-the-art tools and technology.
