I am a graduate student in the University. My research is digital circuit design.But as far as I can see, the digital design method,architecture and implementation are much more mature than analog design.So that's the reason why analog has more research space and more various research topics than digital.
Then what is the future way of research in digital design in the University? I am really confused.
 

first the question itself is not clear.
1. There are many mature digital EDA tools as compaired to analog, for example if we take a some vhdl compiler and spice compiler , it will be observed that the spice simulation of same design, will take a more time as cmprd to that of vhdl one. so while designing the VLSi or even deeper designs, going to spice level is extremely difficult....

2. future designscope for Digital design is removing the clock i.e. asynchronous circuits...though there are many clockless designs but there is no commercioal tool is avliable for such desieg,,so there is need of such tool
 

ok,I just want to know the future "hot" research topics in digital circuit design.
 

FPGA/CPLD,DSP.
But I think you should master basic and systerm knowledge first.then all advanced tech are easy.
 

me too think that the future is in FPGA,CPLD and SOC where yuo can mix analog and digital.

Click to expand...

Read the book about HDL design
choose language verilog or vhdl or other
start design with XESS
read more advanced book about HDL design & IP Design
