Books in the Systems on Silicon series

Suitable for early adopters of the language version, for tool implementers, and for those just curious about where VHDL is headed, this title provides an introduction to the features of the IEEE standard for the VHDL hardware description language.

Rosetta permits designers to specify requirements and constraints independent of their low level implementation and to integrate the designs of domains as distinct as digital and analog electronics, and the mechanical, optical, fluidic and thermal subsystems with which they interact. This book provides an introduction to the language.

Takes a pragmatic, example based approach to unraveling the mysteries of AOP. This book helps to learn how to: use AOP to organize your code in a way that makes it easy to deal with the things you really care about in your verification environments.

Demonstrates how to create and use simulation models for verifying ASIC and FPGA designs and board-level designs that use off-the-shelf digital components. This book illustrates how ASICs and FPGAs can be verified in the larger context of a board or a system.

A guide to VHDL for digital system modeling. It aims to show how VHDL modeling fits into a design flow, starting from high-level design and proceeding through detailed design and verification, synthesis, FPGA place and route, and final timing verification.

Addresses the features of VHDL-2008. This book presents a structured guide to the modeling facilities offered by VHDL. It shows how VHDL functions to help design digital systems. It also includes case studies and source code used to develop testbenches and case study examples.
