This book is an introduction to digital design with a focus on using the hardware construction language Chisel. Chisel brings advances from software engineering, such as object-orientated and functional languages, into digital design. This book addresses hardware designers and software engineers. Hardware designers with knowledge of Verilog or VHDL can upgrade their productivity with a modern language for their next ASIC or FPGA design. Software engineers with knowledge of object-oriented and functional programming can leverage their knowledge to program hardware, for example, FPGA accelerators executing in the cloud. The approach of this book is to present small to medium-sized typical hardware components to explore digital design with Chisel. Chisel is unlike most languages in that it is embedded in another programming language, Scala. Fundamentally, Chisel is a library of classes and functions representing the primitives necessary to express synchronous, digital circuits. A Chisel design is really a Scala program that generates a circuit as it executes. To many, this may seem counterintuitive: “Why not just make Chisel a stand-alone language like VHDL or SystemVerilog?” My answer to this question is as follows: the software world has seen a substantial amount of innovation in design methodology in the past couple of decades. Rather than attempting to adapt these techniques to a new hardware language, we can simply use a modern programming language and gain those benefits for free.

More than two decades have passed since the first edition of Plasma Electronics was published. Today, we are entering an era that demands increasingly sophisticated control and design of plasma sources and related surface technologies for micro- and nano-electronic device fabrication. Plasma technology, based on surface interactions, continues to expand into emerging fields including biotechnology, medical science, and environmental applications. Plasma Electronics: Applications in Microelectronic Device Fabrication, Third Edition, explains the fundamental physics and numerical methods essential for advancing these technologies from laboratory research to manufacturing-scale modeling and design of plasma sources and processes. This comprehensive resource has established itself as the standard reference for scientists, engineers, and graduate students working with weakly ionized, non-equilibrium plasmas. The book begins with a brief history of elementary processes and collective properties in low-temperature plasma, providing readers with essential context for understanding current developments and future prospects. Beyond traditional plasma knowledge, the content is systematically organized to enable quantitative understanding of surface-reactive plasmas through collision physics in gases and on surfaces, stochastic Boltzmann equation applications, electron and ion kinetics fundamentals, computational physics methodologies and plasma source design and optimization.

The relentless pace of technological advancement, particularly in telecommunications, is reshaping how we connect and communicate. What once took a decade to standardize now evolves in just a few years, blurring generational divides and delivering seamless transitions to users. Against this backdrop, Considerations on Novel Network Edge Physical Node Architectures explores the complex paradigm of 6G mobile communications—anticipated to emerge around 2030—and casts a longer-term vision toward Future Networks (FNs). This book proposes new ways of conceiving the physical building blocks of Edge Intelligence (EI), where intelligence is embedded at the network’s edge. Central to this vision is the use of micro- and nanotechnologies (MEMS/NEMS) to create miniaturized sensors, actuators, and transducers (SATs) that serve as distributed intelligence units. These physical innovations are examined alongside non-physical enablers such as AI and Federated Learning (FL), illustrating how a holistic integration of technologies can enable practical, scalable applications.

Welcome to Circuit Analysis and Design. As the foundational course in the majority of electrical and computer engineering curricula, an electric circuits course should serve four vital objectives: (1) It should introduce the fundamental principles of circuit analysis and equip the student with the skills necessary to analyze any planar, linear circuit, including those driven by DC or AC sources, or by more complicated waveforms such as pulses and exponentials. (2) It should start the student on the journey of circuit design. (3) It should guide the student into the seemingly magical world of domain transformations—such as the Laplace and Fourier transforms, not only as circuit analysis tools, but also as mathematical languages that are “spoken” by many fields of science and engineering. (4) It should expand the student’s technical horizon by introducing him/her to some of the many allied fields of science and technology. The book contains 32 Technology Briefs, each providing an overview of a topic that every electrical and computer engineering professional should become familiar with. Electronic displays, data storage media, sensors and actuators, supercapacitors, and 3-D imaging are typical of the topics shared with the reader. Technology Briefs cover applications in circuits, medicine, the physical world, optics, signals and systems, and more.

What every programmer should know about processors. We will learn: - The principles of processors, the hardware component that makes the calculations in your computer; - How processor instructions work, plus a peek at the complexity behind the function abstraction; - Why compilers exist and how they broadly work; - How to make computers faster by using multi-threading, caching, complex instructions, and pipelines; - What the trade-offs are between processor performance and security. The processor is the most important component of your computer. After all, it is the component that computes—it calculates. The goal of the book: Make computer processors more approachable & intuitive. When processor security exploits like Spectre happen, you’ll have enough knowledge to understand a brief, intermediate-level explanation. I hope you feel encouraged by someone you’ve never met. The book series is my earnest attempt to help solve the problems and frustrations I faced, with a bit of fun & charm sprinkled throughout. This is the second volume in The Code Monster Manual series.
