The terms positive logic and negative logic refer to two conventions that dictate the relationship between logical values and the physical voltages used to represent them. Although the core concepts ...

Today, we are surrounded by digital electronics. Devices that work with analog electronics are very rare. Computers, telephones, cameras, CD players, printers, radios, and TVs all operate with digital ...

In my view, some of the most mind-boggling logic puzzles are those that present statements, some of which are true and some false, with the objective being to figure out where the truth of the matter ...

All chip designers know that they must take special care to avoid metastability problems when they have multiple, asynchronous clock domains. In contrast, a design in which all clocks are synchronous ...

The twentieth-century philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein once wrote that: “Logic takes care of itself; all we have to do is to look and see how it does it.” These words bring out the crux of the problem ...

The chip industry is progressing rapidly toward 3D-ICs, but a simpler step has been shown to provide gains equivalent to a whole node advancement — extracting distributed memories and placing them on ...
