VHDL is one of the commonly used Hardware Description Languages (HDL) in digital circuit design. VHDL stands for VHSIC Hardware Description Language. In turn, VHSIC stands for Very-High-Speed Integrated Circuit. VHDL was initiated by the US Department of Defense around 1981. The c...
Hardware Design Language (HDL) The most important part of RTL design is the code that describes the behavior of the circuit. An HDL is a specification language that looks a lot like a programming language, with variables, function calls, logical statements like if-then-else and CASE, Boolean...
In the Quartus II handbook there is a chapter called something like "HDL coding guidelines". It probably does a better job explaining this under the section about multiplication. I try to avoid using the LPMs whenever possible since I often create IP for different FPGA...
Among the challenges of writing HDL is the requirement of being an expert in all of areas of the language. In addition, the VHDL language, which may be used with SystemVerilog components, has its own separate syntax. SystemVerilog and VHDL are both known as compiled languages. In other word...
Coding/decoding Scrambler/descrambler CRC The MAC layer acts as a finite state machine. Based on the status of the channel, the received signal frames, and the frames to be transmitted, the MAC determines what and when to transmit next. ...
A true fact regarding FPGA development is thatXilinx Vivado, one of the popular FPGA development tools, has been recognized as the industry’s leading design environment for programmable logic.[Source: Xilinx] Forget Shakespeare, the true language of power isn’t English, it’s HDL – the Hardw...
之前简单整理了一些关于Performance Modeling的介绍,于是想着再整理整理放在知乎,希望可以帮助大家对Modeling有个基础的扫盲。 初识Performance Modeling 传统Silicon生产设计制造流程 在传统的设计流程中,Architects直接提供设计文档给到RTL Design然后进行下一步的RTL Coding。对于一些简单的ASIC还好,但是对于复杂的类似于目前的...
So, although I'm still stuck in my ways and will continue to code in VHDL, I do see the advantage in learning SystemVerilog, and coding in whatever is appropriate for the particular task. Cheers, Dave Translate 0 Kudos Copy link Reply Altera_Forum Honored Contrib...
Pyjs (also known as Pyjamas) is a development platform for creating rich client-side applications that can in a web browser and as a standalone desktop application. Pyjs includes: a stand-alone Python-to-JavaScript compiler, an AJAX widget toolkit and a Widget Set API. MyHDL: design hardwa...
Coding for fun - the hard way. Trying to implement a Game Boy® compatible machine with Verilog. This project is an open source Game Boy® compatible console Verilog RTL implementation. System Architecture The main system architecture is designed as follows (outdated): ...
