Korea Univ Ultimate Goal 4 Understand How Your Computer Works Really! Research on How to Improve the Performance of Computer! &

Korea Univ Objectives Chapter 1 ~ Chapter 5 (Digital Design)  Principles of digital design Number systems Combinational logic Sequential logic Digital building blocks  Adder, Subtractor, Multiplier, Divider  Memory  Verilog HDL (Hardware Description Language) Cover the same topics with language 5

Korea Univ Objectives (Cont.) Chapter 6 ~ Chapter 8 (Computer Architecture) covers how to build a CPU with the basic elements 6 Core 2 Duo processor 291 million transistors (65nm technology) Basic elements

Korea Univ A Computer System (till 2008) 7 CPU North Bridge South Bridge Main Memory (DDR2) FSB (Front-Side Bus) DMI (Direct Media I/F) Hard disk USB PCIe card Peripheral devices Graphics card But, don’t forget the big picture!

Korea Univ Present, Near Future and More… 8 CPU North Bridge South Bridge Main Memory (DDR2) FSB (Front-Side Bus) DMI (Direct Media I/F) CPU North Bridge South Bridge Main Memory (DDR3) Quickpath (Intel) or Hypertransport (AMD) DMI (Direct Media I/F) Core 2 Duo – based Systems Core i7– based Systems Keep in mind that CPU and computer systems are evolving at a fast pace

Korea Univ Another View Chapter 1 ~ Chapter 5 9 C, C++, Java, C# … int main() { int a, b, c; a = 3; b = 9; c = a + b; return c; } Chapter 6 ~ Chapter 8

Korea Univ Expectations You will have a lot of fun throughout this program After successfully completing this program, you should be able to design  Any digital logic in vending machine, digital watches, microwave, your dishwasher, your HD TV etc  Computer systems including CPU. Isn’t it cool? 10
