About this title

Synopsis

The VHSIC Hardware Design Language for a hardware designer has become what C Language is to the software designer. This work introduces the main concepts of the language, presents the VHDL language from structural to behavioural, and discusses modelling and the design of a large example.

From the Author

Contents: Design methodology, VHDL langauge, VHDL in use
The first three chapters are on general concepts of hardware description languages and design with these languages. Top-down design methodology is presented in Chapter 3. Chapter 4 is on timing, sequential and concurrent simulation, and event scheduling. Chapters 5 through 9 present the complete VHDL language. Real hardware examples are used for the demonstration of VHDL language constructs. The last 3 chapters (10 - 12) show various ways that VHDL can be used in real design and modeling environments. Chapter 10 shows discrete design based on VHDL, and Chapter 11 shows board level component based design. Together, these chapters show a complete CPU system with memory, bus arbitration, cache, DMA and a serial interface. The last Chapter is on modeling issues in VHDL. An appendix covers a synthesizable VHDL subset, which is a good starting point for using commercial synthesis tools. Correction: This edition does not include Verilog examples.
