Project Guide

Guide for completing the term project required for SKEE2263 Sistem Digit course.

• • Read this first:

    • Guide to the Term Project (Perdana) or

    • Guide to the Term Project (SPACE) 

Basically, you must complete 6 tasks, at the end of each you'll achieve a milestone.

• • Milestone 1 : modular digital design with Quartus

• Milestone 2 : register-based counter, hex-to-7-segment converter & CPLD interfacing

• Guide to using USB Blaster with CPLD EPM240.

Milestones 1 is the same for everybody.

For the actual project, go through Milestones 2-6. 

Choose a project topic from the topics listed here. 

In simple terms, you will perform top-down design and bottom-up implementation. 

For the top-down design part, understand the overall circuit design which consists a datapath unit and a control unit. The datapath unit contains many modules. Break the design into smaller and smaller components until you reach a level suitable for schematic capture design entry.

Then, perform the bottom-up implementation task.

• • Milestone 3: implement the combinational components of the data path unit

  • Milestone 4: implement the sequential components of the datapath unit

  • Milestone 5: integrate all parts from milestone 3 and 4 to achieve a working datapath unit

  • Milestone 6: implement control unit. Merge the datapath unit with the control unit. Done.

The master document for the semester project is here.

A tutorial for implementing a serial adder is here. You can use it as a template for your final report.
