         Objective of Subject
  Students will have the understanding and experience 
  of CAD/EDA techniques in combinational circuit 
  design.
  Students will be aware of state-of-the-art techniques 
  in the realization of digital designs - specifically the 
  use of Rapid Prototyping Techniques.
  Students will learn modern EDA (Electronic Design 
  Automation) approaches and fundamentals of 
  building tools
