Considered and industry classis, VHDL:Modular Design and Synthesis of Cores and Systems has been fully updated to cover methodologies of modern design and the latest uses of VHDL for digital system design. You'll learn how to utilize VHDL to create specific constructs for specific hardware parts, focusing on VHDL's new libraries and packages.
The cutting-edge resource explores the design of RT level components, the application of these components in a core-based, and the development of a complete processor design with its hardware and software as a core in a system-on-a-chip(SOC). Filled with over 150 illustrations, VHDL:Modular Design and Synthesis of Cores and Systems features:
An entire toolkit for register-transfer level digital system design
Testbench development techniques
New to this edition: Coverage of the latest uses of VHDL for digital system design, design of IP cores, interactive and self-checking testbench development, and VHDL's new libraries and packages
