Creating EDIF from Verilog, then using VHDL wrapper

Started by Robin Bruce July 20, 2006
Hi group, here's a question:

Can I synthesise a component described in Verilog, obtain an EDIF, then
write a VHDL wrapper around it so as to integrate it into a greater
VHDL project.

yours in ignorance,

you should yes. most of the tools allow any mix of verilog-vhdl, but you can also use edif as interim format antti

Coming from a similar direction is one of our TechiTips here
http://www.enterpoint.co.uk/techitips/Previous_TechiTips/techitips_increment_synth.html.
It is a little bit old now but the module build up approach described
is still applicable to mixed language application.
