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 ...

This course will introduce students to practical design methodologies for developing applications for FPGAs and ASICs. You will learn the fundamentals for FPGA and ASIC design through software coding ...

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, ...

HDL Coder generates target independent, synthesizable Verilog and VHDL code from MATLAB functions, Simulink models, and Stateflow charts. The generated HDL code is bit-true and cycle-accurate to ...

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 ...

This course will give you the foundation for using Hardware Description Languages, specifically VHDL and Verilog for Logic Design. You will learn the history of both VHDL and Verilog and how to use ...

Most of the algorithms implemented in FPGAs used to be fixed-point. Floating-point operations are useful for computations involving large dynamic range, but they require significantly more resources ...
