Structure of the Book The book is divided into two parts: Circuit Design and System Design The first part deals with everything that goes directly inside the main code, while the second deals with units that might be located in a library (for code sharing, reuse, and partitioning) In summary, in Part I we study the entire background and coding techniques of VHDL, which includes the following:  Code structure:... during such a project are summarized in figure 1.1 We start the design by writing the VHDL code, which is saved in a file with the extension TLFeBOOK 4 Chapter 1 VHDL entry (RTL level) Compilation Netlist (Gate level) Optimization Synthesis Optimized netlist (Gate level) Simulation Place & Route Physical device Simulation Figure 1.1 Summary of VHDL design flow .vhd and the same name as its ENTITY’s name The...

(Application Specific Integrated Circuits) Once the VHDL code has been written, it can be used either to implement the circuit in a programmable device (from Altera, Xilinx, Atmel, etc.) or can be submitted to a foundry for fabrication of an ASIC chip Currently, many complex commercial chips (microcontrollers, for example) are designed using such an approach A final note regarding VHDL is that, contrary to . with VHDL Volnei A.
