Experiences with VHDL and FPGAs
Publication Type:
Journal article
Venue:
Journal of Systems Architecture
Abstract
In order to remain competitive, a company needs to reduce its product development time, and consequently the development time for prototyping has to be reduced as well. One way to decrease the development time of a product is to synthesize the design description automatically to FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Arrays). This article describes the experience of implementing a real-time kernel in hardware using VHDL for behavioral and data flow (RTL) description, simulation, synthesis to gate level, back-annotation and programming FPGAs for a prototype.
