Cíle studia:

The module is mostly targeted for practically oriented bachelor students, who would like to get acquainted with the current digital circuit design. The focus is on synchronous design policies, essentials of the VHDL language, and implementation technologies FPGA and ASIC. In the labs, students will get practical experience in the design of digital circuits using EDA tools for FPGAs and demonstrate their knowledge in a module project. A short visit in a professional design center is also envisaged.
