The Student''s Guide to VHDLis a condensed edition ofThe Designer''s Guide to VHDL,the most widely used textbook on VHDL for digital system modeling.The Student''s Guideis targeted as a supplemental reference book for computer organization and digital design courses.
Since publication of the first edition ofThe Student''s Guide,the IEEE VHDL and related standards have been revised. TheDesigner''s Guidehas been revised to reflect the changes, so it is appropriate thatThe Student''s Guidealso be revised.
In The Student''s Guide to VHDL, 2nd Edition,we have included a design case study illustrating an FPGA-based design flow. The aim is 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. Inclusion of the case study helps to better serve the educational market. Currently, most college courses do not formally address the details of design flow. Students may be given informal guidance on how to proceed with lab projects. In many cases, it is left to students to work it out for themselves. The case study inThe Student''s Guideprovides a reference design flow that can be adapted to a variety of lab projects.
