3. Digital System Design Principles
Digital system design encompasses the creation and optimization of systems that process digital signals, relying on principles such as logic gates and circuit design. The process includes defining requirements, architectural design, component selection, verification, and synthesis. Key design techniques like pipelining and fault tolerance enhance system performance and reliability.

What we have learnt
- The digital system design process involves multiple stages, including requirement analysis and testing.
- Key principles such as modularity, abstraction, and reliability play a vital role in system design.
- Techniques like pipelining, parallelism, and error correction are essential for enhancing system performance.
Key Concepts
- -- Abstraction
- The process of simplifying complex designs into manageable components at high and low levels.
- -- Modularity
- Designing systems in independent modules that can be reused and tested separately.
- -- Reliability and Fault Tolerance
- The ability of a system to continue functioning correctly even in the presence of faults.
- -- Pipelining
- A technique to improve throughput by executing different stages of a process simultaneously.
- -- Finite State Machine (FSM)
- A model of computation representing a system's states and transitions based on inputs.
