VHDL
Modelling of a Bit Slice Arithmetic Logic Unit |
The
electronics industry experienced an explosion in the demand for personal computers
, cellular telephones, and high speed data communication devices; vendors built
products with increasingly greater functionality, higher performance, lower cost,
lower power consumption, and smaller dimensions. The bottleneck for some vendors
appeared to be the ability of designers to deal with the increasing complexity
of designs.This situation fostered the need for widespread adoption of modern
methodologies in design and test. Both
high-density programmable logic devices ( PLD's ) and VHDL,became
key elements in these ethodologies.VHDL
is the acronym for VHSIC Hardware Design Language (
VHSIC is an acronym for Very High Speed Integrated Circuits ). As
the name implies it is a hardware description language unlike other
languages like C, C++, etc, which are all pure software languages.
It is a hardware description tool essentially used to model a
digital system. The digital system can be anything ranging from asimple
gate device to large complex devices. Whatever
be the device, it can be modeled at various levels of abstraction,
ranging from the algorithm level to the gate level. It contains
elements that can be used to describe the behavior or structure of
a digital system; that is, the functionality of the device can
be explicitly modeled.
