Course Outcomes:

At the end of this course, students will be able to

1. Write Verilog programs in gate, dataflow (RTL), behavioral and switch modeling levels of Abstraction.

2. Design and verify the functionality of digital circuit/system using test benches.

3. Identify the suitable Abstraction level for a particular digital design

4. Write the programs more effectively using Verilog tasks, functions and directives.

5. Perform timing and delay Simulation and Interpret the various constructs in logic synthesis.
