This book provides in-depth coverage on the systematical development and synthesis of efficient, portable and scalable register-transfer-level (RT-level) digital circuits using the VHDL hardware description language. RT-level design uses intermediate-sized components, such as adders, comparators, multiplexers and registers, to construct a digital system. It is the level that is most suitable and effective for today’s synthesis software. RT-level design and VHDL are two somewhat independent subjects. VHDL code is simply one of the methods to describe a hardware design. The same design can also be described by a schematic or code in other HDLs. VHDL and synthesis software will not lead automatically to a better or worse design. However, they can shield designers from low-level details and allow them to explore and research better architectures.
