This VHDL language course is particularly aimed at students in Professional Licenses and Research, Masters and engineering students. The use of an advanced VHDL language (Hardware Description language, such as VHDL or Verilog) in the modeling and design of digital integrated circuits is now indispensable. This edition of this course presents the brand new VHDL-2008 standard, available today on
... [Show full abstract] most simulation and synthesis tools. Supplements, complete programs and exercises corrected. To discover all the possibilities offered by the VHDL language, the reader is invited to follow examples that lead him to realize applications easy to implement in a programmable circuit. The tests and pitfalls to avoid are also presented in this process of developing a new digital component. Ridha Ghayoula, Ph.d, Eng Ridha Ghayoula received the Dipl. Eng. in Electrical Engineering in
