VHDL: Basics to Programming is a methodological guide to VHDL and its applications. The book is written to teach fundamentals of VHDL to students at the beginner's level, but advanced users will also benefit from the complex embedded-system designs, included with simulation and synthesis. Presented in simple, easy-to-understand language, it proceeds gradually from HDLs to VHDL and its applications in the real world. Several examples are given for commonly used digital circuits. A few selected case studies have also been provided that can serve as minor projects for undergraduate and postgraduate students.
