Modern digital design is hierarchical

• We've discussed already

  • Use transistors as switches
  • Use switches to make logic elements
  • Use logic elements to make latches

• Some others we will see

  • Use truth tables or Boolean algebra to represent combinational logic
  • Use state diagrams to represent sequential logic
  • Use hardware description languages (HDLs) to describe systems
