A Necessary Text

I am a senior systems engineer. This book has been instrumental in getting some of our new engineers quickly up to speed in Verilog so that they could begin doing design right away. This book doesn't try to solve every problem because it doesn't have to - instead it enables the reader to learn the cornerstones of design, teaching the user necessary skills and not simply cookbook repetitions. Synthesizable code is treated more fairly in this text than others. I was very pleased to add this to my library.

A good handbook to start to build your project

I helped a design engineer in my group to start a CRC RTL coding in our project by using the code from this book as a basis and found the book is very useful. There are three RTL coding techniques mentioned in this book: reliability, scalability and portability. I think they are important and not mentioned in the books I have read.I want to submit this comment but I could not get rid off the age which can only allow me to put max 12? please remove the age from the comment and you should modify this part from your web site.

Best Verilog Book I've seen

With many verilog books out there, this one has to be the best I've seen. It has real world modules, and explains what went into each module. This book is a MUST for any Beginner->Advanced ASIC designer. Highly recommended!!

An indispensable starting point

Tired of reinventing the wheel? Complete designs are provided for basic building blocks such as FIFOs, RAM controller, dual port RAM, State machines, etc. This book has proven an indispensable starting point.

A good library of models

I was looking for models for a dual-port RAM and a FIFO. I couldn't find any book that had examples of either one of them. This book does and in great detail. That was worth the price of the book for me.
