Clear presentation of the subject - though I may be biased

I was fortunate enough to use this text in an introductory course with Unger himself. I thought the book was easy to understand and presented a difficult subject clearly. However, I will admit that having the author of the book in the classroom may have made it easier for me to understand what was going on.

Excellent beginning book for Intermediate Digital Design

This books extensively makes use of state machines. The author describes advanced digital circuits such as look ahead adders. It also describes emerging digital techniques such as Scan-chaining and boundary scans. Numerous illustrative examples make the concept clear (e.g. a coin operated candy vending machine). An excellent book for would be logic designers.
