What This Note Covers

This overview maps the Chinese computer systems fundamentals note, covering information representation, Boolean algebra, combinational logic, arithmetic units, sequential logic, ISA, and RISC-V.

Study Outline

  • System Perspective: How physical signals, logic gates, RTL components, ISA, assembly, linking, and loading connect into a computer system.
  • Information Representation: Binary encoding, integers, floating-point numbers, characters, and data interpretation.
  • Boolean Algebra and Logic: Logic gates, Boolean identities, circuit parameters, and digital abstraction.
  • Combinational Logic and Verilog: Functional blocks, HDL descriptions, and design flow.
  • Arithmetic Units and ALU: Addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, shifting, and floating-point arithmetic.
  • Sequential Logic: Latches, flip-flops, registers, counters, finite-state machines, and timing.
  • ISA and RISC-V: Instruction formats, registers, calling conventions, ELF files, linking, loading, and program execution.

Preserved Notation Examples
