Reviews

[Duy Tô]

This book is an excellent comprehensive guide to VHDL and digital design HDL concepts.

[Shai Huld Up]

For a programmable logic designer using VHDL, this book is a must have. If nothing more as a reference, this book is exhaustive in covering VHDL, even to its finest points.

[John Mladenik]

Many of the examples will not compile. They simulate but are not synthesizable. I prefer a book that uses real world example that can be used in the real world not code that can only simulate.
