Network-on-Chip (NoC) is an advance design method of communication network into System-on-Chip (SoC). It provides solution to the problems of traditional bus-based SoC. It is widely considered that ...

When the topic of design languages comes up, most industry veterans think back to the "language wars" of the late 1980s and early 1990s. Back then, VHDL and Verilog vied for dominance, with numerous ...

An earlier Idea For Design (Hardware-Based LED Blinking Control Eliminates Software Overhead) described a very interesting way to offload the software overhead required for a microcontroller to drive ...

Simulations and prototyping have been a very important part of the electronics industry since a very long time. In recent years, FPGA’s have become increasingly important and have found their way into ...

For the past several years, I have had the privilege to chair the IEEE 1076 VHDL working group. In March, we handed off the revisions to the VHDL LRM to our technical editor to finalize the document ...
