We have also developed a variety of other lab exercises and tutorials, but links are not included because those materials include substantial information about products not produced by Cadence Design Systems, Inc. Contact Mark C. Johnson (mcjohnso@purdue.edu) for more information. Topics include analog simulation, VHDL simulation, and an ASIC design flow from VHDL to layout and timing verification.
