RTL Hardware Design Using VHDL: Coding for Efficiency, Portability, and Scalability (IEEE Press)

Chu, Pong P. 2006

The skills and guidance needed to master RTL hardware design This book teaches readers how to systematically design efficient, portable, and scalable Register Transfer Level (RTL) digital circuits using the VHDL hardware description language and synthesis software. Focusing on the module-level design, which is composed of functional units, routing circuit, and storage, the book illustrates the relationship between the VHDL constructs and the underlying hardware components, and shows how to...


Synthesis of Arithmetic Circuits: FPGA, ASIC and Embedded Systems

Deschamps, Jean-Pierre, Bioul, Gery J.A., Sutter 2006

A new approach to the study of arithmetic circuits In Synthesis of Arithmetic Circuits: FPGA, ASIC and Embedded Systems, the authors take a novel approach of presenting methods and examples for the synthesis of arithmetic circuits that better reflects the needs of today's computer system designers and engineers. Unlike other publications that limit discussion to arithmetic units for general-purpose computers, this text features a practical focus on embedded systems. Following an introductory...


A Practical Guide for SystemVerilog Assertions

Vijayaraghavan, Srikanth, Ramanathan, Meyyappan 2005

SystemVerilog language consists of three categories of features -- Design, Assertions and Testbench.  Assertions add a whole new dimension to the ASIC verification process.   Engineers are used to writing testbenches in verilog that help verify their design.  Verilog is a procedural language and is very limited in capabilities to handle the complex ASICs built today.  SystemVerilog assertions (SVA) is a declarative language.  The temporal nature of the language provides excellent...


A Verilog Hdl Primer

Bhasker, J. 2005

- Written for new users. - Explains the language through simple examples. - Explains the syntax of language using commonly-used design terminology. - Explains the behavioral style, the dataflow style, and structural style in detail. - Concepts of delay and timing are clearly explained. - Testbench writing is made easier by providing a number of examples. - Many hardware modeling examples have also been provided to make this an excellent reference.

Also includes exercises for...

Rapid System Prototyping with FPGAs: Accelerating the Design Process (Embedded Technology)

Cofer, R. C., Harding, Benjamin F. 2005

The push to move products to market as quickly and cheaply as possible is fiercer than ever, and accordingly, engineers are always looking for new ways to provide their companies with the edge over the competition. Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs), which are faster, denser, and more cost-effective than traditional programmable logic devices (PLDs), are quickly becoming one of the most widespread tools that embedded engineers can utilize in order to gain that needed edge. FPGAs are...


Practical FPGA Programming In C (Prentice Hall Modern Semiconductor Design Series)

David Pellerin, Scott Thibault 2005

During the past few years of tech sector economic decline,which has touched the EDA/semiconductor industries, two companies have had consistent double digit growth. They are Xilinx and Altera. Their business is FPGA design. Advances in FPGA technologies have made FPGA design a low cost alternative to very expensive unreconfigurable ASIC design.


Digital System Design with VHDL (2nd Edition)

Zwolinski, Mark 2004

Since the publication of the first edition, a new version of the VHDL standard has been agreed and analogue extensions to the language have also been adopted. The second edition of Digital System Design with VHDL includes additions in two important areas; sections on writing testbenches have been added to relevant chapters, and the addition of a new chapter on VHDL-AMS and mixed-signal modeling. The unique approach will be appreciated by undergraduates in Electronic Engineering and Computer...


Advanced Digital Design With the Verilog Hdl

Ciletti, Michael D. 2004

For an advanced course in digital design for seniors and first-year graduate students in electrical engineering, computer engineering, and computer science. This book builds on the student's background from a first course in logic design and focuses on developing, verifying, and synthesizing designs of digital circuits. The Verilog language is introduced in an integrated, but selective manner, only as needed to support design examples (includes appendices for additional language details)....
