Most of today's electronic products are based around programmable integrated circuits. Therefore today's electronic engineering degree courses have to provide both teaching and practical experience of programmable technologies as an essential thread within the core subject area of digital electronics. This demand pull is matched by the push which programmability gives in terms of benefits to teaching. The benefits can only be realised in full if a variety of practical issues, ranging from device handling to software support, are acknowledged, understood, and dealt with.

Abstract

Most of today's electronic products are based around programmable integrated circuits. Therefore today's electronic engineering degree courses have to provide both teaching and practical experience of programmable technologies as an essential thread within the core subject area of digital electronics. This demand pull is matched by the push which programmability gives in terms of benefits to teaching. The benefits can only be realised in full if a variety of practical issues, ranging from device handling to software support, are acknowledged, understood, and dealt with.
