| Summary: | The VHSIC Hardware Description Language (VHDL) started out as a documentation tool for digital systems. Since its publication as an IEEE standard, VHDL has gained wide acceptance in industry as the only nonproprietary hardware description language. This acceptance is moving VHDL away from being simply a documentation tool and toward the design environment. The utility of VHDL as a design tool is explored through modelling the operation of the lnmos Transputer link and the analog effects of a transmission line. The features of VHDL are found adequate to describe the operation of the Transputer link and a lossless transmission line. Several limitations of standard VHDL are revealed which restrict VHDL's suitability as a design tool. These limitations include mathematical function shortfalls, digital data representation, and lack of validation. The current definition of the language does not, however, prevent the designer from incorporating these capabilities into his or her design environment. |
