Okay, now we’re beginning to feel a bit like [Alice]. This tutorial shows you how to simulate VHDL code. This code is intended to run on an FPGA and includes a software-only version of the AVR 8-bit ...
A new technical paper titled “Customizing a Large Language Model for VHDL Design of High-Performance Microprocessors” was published by researchers at IBM. “The use of Large Language Models (LLMs) in ...
Last time, in the third installment of VHDL we discussed logic gates and Adders. Let’s move on to some basic VHDL structure. All HDL languages bridge what for many feels like a strange brew of ...
The data objects in VHDL and Verilog form expression operands. Knowing the operand differences between the two HDLs helps you write more efficient chip-design code. Expressions consist of operators ...
An earlier Idea For Design (“Hardware-Based LED Blinking Control Eliminates Software Overhead,” Sept. 27, 2007, p. 52) described a very interesting way to offload the software overhead required for a ...
The 8255A Programmable Peripheral Interface (PPI) implements a general-purpose I/O interface to connect peripheral equipment to a microcomputer system bus. The core’s functional configuration is ...
IP design-houses are hard-pressed by their customers to provide SystemC models of their portfolio IPs, despite already existing VHDL views. VHDL IPs can be translated to SystemC, ensuring correctness, ...
Many of today's large, complex designs can contain thousands of lines of Verilog or VHDL code. Quite often, teams of engineers—with some members possibly situated in disparate locations worldwide—will ...
