This directory contains The VHDL Cookbook First Edition (July 1990) (c) 1990, Peter J. Ashenden This is a set of notes I put together for my Computer Architecture class in 1990. Students had a project in which they had to model a microprocessor architecture of their choice. They used these notes to learn VHDL. The notes cover the VHDL-87 version of the language. Not all of the language is covered (about 95%). You may use this booklet for your own personal learning purposes. You may not use it for profit (eg, selling copies of it, using it in a course for which people pay, etc). If you want to make use of it beyond these conditions, contact me and we can come to some arrangement. Since publishing these notes, I have written a full textbook version called "The Designer's Guide to VHDL", published by Morgan Kaufmann Publishers, ISBN 1-55860-270-4. The new book covers VHDL-93 (with notes on backward compatibility to -87), and includes heaps of examples, four full case studies, exercises, etc. A Student Edition of the Designer's Guide to VHDL will be available early in 1998. For more info on both editions see my web page, http://www.cs.adelaide.edu.au/~petera. Files in this directory: VHDL-Cookbook.cpt.Hqx is a binhex'ed compactor archive. Get the file, copy it to your Mac, use binhex 4.0 to extract VHDL-Cookbook.cpt, then launch VHDL-Cookbook.cpt. It will self-extract, producing a set of Microsoft Word files. VHDL-Cookbook.ps.tar.Z is a compressed tar archive containing postscript files with the Apple Laser Prep kindly prepended by alind@eng.clemson.edu (Alex Lind). Get the archive using binary mode. The original postscript was generated from the Microsoft Word documents. VHDL-Cookbook-paginated.ps.tar.Z is a compressed tar archive containing the postscript files kindly processed by Mattias Hembruch <mghembru@ece.uwaterloo.ca> so that Ghostview can identify the individual pages and page numbers. VHDL-Cookbook.winword20.zip is a PC ZIP archive containing the book in Word for Windows format, kindly prepared by Jeff Marden <jmarden@world.std.com>. Get the archive using binary mode, then use your favourite unzipper to extract the files. VHDL-Cookbook.pdf is a PDF version kindly prepared by Tom Verhoeff <wstomv@win.tue.nl>. You can transfer it using binary mode ftp, then read it using the Adobe Acrobat Reader. dp32.tar.Z is a compressed tar archive of the source files for the DP-32 CPU decribed in the Cookbook.
