This booklet is meant to be a operating reference for digital de­ signers who're drawn to writing VHDL versions. A handbook/cookbook technique is taken, with many whole examples used to demonstrate the fea­ tures of the VHDL language and to supply perception into how specific sessions of units might be modelled in VHDL. it's attainable to take advantage of those types at once or to evolve them to related issues of minimum attempt. This ebook isn't really meant to be an entire reference guide for the VHDL language. it really is attainable to start writing VHDL types with little historical past in VHDL by means of copying examples from the publication and adapting them to specific difficulties. a few publicity to the VHDL language sooner than utilizing this ebook is usually recommended. The reader is believed to have an effective layout history, ideally with a few simulation adventure. For the reader who's drawn to getting an entire review of the VHDL language, the subsequent guides are prompt studying: • An creation to VHDL: Description and layout [LIP89] • IEEE usual VHDL Language Reference handbook [IEEE87] • Chip-Level Behavioral Modelling [ARMS88] • Multi-Level Simulation of VLSI structures [COEL87] different references of curiosity are [USG88], [DOD88] and [CLSI87] Use of the publication If the reader understands VHDL, the types defined in chapters three via 7 will be utilized on to layout problems.

Sample text

The primary difference between nand gates from different technologies and manufacturers is the propagation delay. It is possible using the techniques described in this section to write a single nand model which can accurately simulate everyone of these many versions of the nand gate without requiring source code changes to the model. In this case, the model library developer has leveraged his VHDL investment by several hundred fold, a substantial savings. A model which can be utilized in a wide range of applications without modification is commonly referred to as a generic model (although related, this should not be confused with the term, generic parameter which is a specific VHDL concept).

13: RSFF Test Bench result of this multi-level capability, VHDL has considerably more flexibility and power than most other hardware description languages. For the vast majority of hardware designers, this flexibility and power is not required, and in fact can result in the creation of models that have severe compatibility problems when mixed during simulation [COELB88]. An analogy exists to VHDL in the area of programming languages. With a language such as C or Pascal, unless the use of these languages is restricted according to a strict methodology, a team of programmers will have severe difficulties during integration of a large programming effort.

An analogy exists to VHDL in the area of programming languages. With a language such as C or Pascal, unless the use of these languages is restricted according to a strict methodology, a team of programmers will have severe difficulties during integration of a large programming effort. As a result, one of the key characteristics of an effective software engineering effort is the introduction of practices including: • Code Sharing; Effective use of Libraries • Standardized Code Formats • Proper Documentation of Code • Effective Modularization of Code • Standardization of Coding Techniques including handling of errors and messages These good engineering practices are well accepted in the software area, but are not as well understood or adopted in the hardware modelling area.
