Common Mistakes in VHDL

1 hour session (All Time Zones)
Presenter: Doug Perry

VHDL Guru

Webinar Overview:

Learning any new programming language will undoubtedly be influenced by your existing design experience, and although that knowledge is largely very useful it can also work against you... For example, when you come to learn VHDL, the parallel nature of the hardware design language might trip you up if you've been using a language that has a sequential nature, such as Java, C or C++.

In this webinar VHDL guru, Doug Perry, (author of "VHDL: Programming by Example") explores some of the common mistakes designers make when starting out with VHDL and provides useful tips and resources for getting on track. Practical examples will be provided using Aldec Riviera-PRO™ in the online simulation environment EDA Playground.

Content Summary:

  • VHDL Statements
  • Process Statements
  • Signal Assignments
  • Delta Delays
  • The Simulation Cycle
  • Variables
  • Incomplete Assignments
  • Unexpected Latches
  • Drivers
  • Types
