Badly Out of Date

The first half of this book does an excellent job of teaching the background information needed for digital design. Unfortunately, the CPU-specific sections that follow are badly out of date. The author spends altogether too much time describing the 8086 and its family of (ISA-bus-specific) support chips -- devices that are almost never used anymore. It needs to be revised to talk about current technology.

Great book

Makes understanding the subject simplistic. It tells you what you need to know and tries not to confuse you with all the other garbage some Digital Logic and Microprocessor Design books have in them. I also took a couple of courses with the author and I know that this guy has had a lot of experience with what he writes. He has written training material for certain companies in the industry. I recommended another book that he also wrote, "Preparing for an Outstanding Career in Computers," because he refers to this book in his courses and usually uses the examples from this book as a supplement to the class.

Fundamentals of Digital Logic and Microcomputer Design

The content of this is easy for user to understand, and there always an examply in the theory. The author also combine Verilog in this book, so the student can understand Digital Logic efficiently before they can start Verilog. This will help most student understand the content of both Digital Logic and Verilog.

Great

I haven't read this book, but from the reviews it seems that this book and the author are abnormal.

Great Info

I find the book "Fundamentals of digital logic and microcomputer design" very useful. I am a Cal Poly student, and took a few courses from Professor Rafiquzzaman. He is an excellent professor. It seems to me that the unproffesional comments by the other Cal Poly student are motivated. He probably took Professor Rafiquzzaman's class and received a bad grade. You should go through the book yourself and make your own judgements. The topics in the book are presented in a very simplified way. It's easy to understand. The CD included in the 5th edition is very handy. I am sure once you go through the book, you will know what I mean.
