curriculum as they work on the project, to go through all stages of the design cycle, and to acquire

skills in team work and creating common shared documents. Project tasks include specification,

VHDL modelling, simulation and synthesis, physical design, implementation and testing on FPGA

design boards. Project report has to explain circuit functionality, VHDL code, and result of

simulation, synthesis output and testing results.

METHOD OF ASSESSMENT: The assessment is based on collaborative project result, and

individual homework (80%) and final exam test (20%). Clear evaluation criteria were stated before
