B.1 PRODUCTIVITY TOOLS BUNDLED WITH THIS TEXT
Five important productivity tools are available on the CD-ROM bundled with this text for
use in combinational logic, synchronous and asynchronous machine design and analysis:
1. EXL-Sim2002 logic simulator
2. BOOZER logic minimizer
3. ESPRESSO II logic minimizer
4. ADAM CAD software
5. A-OPS CAD software
Complete instructions are included for the use of each of these software tools. All but
EXL-Sim2002 require the use of a text editor.
EXL-Sim2002 is an outstanding gate-level, interactive, schematic-capture and simulation
program that can be used at either the beginning ...
