In this paper, we focus on the synthesis aspects of processes with an incomplete sensitivity list. In general, processes with a sensitivity list are used to describe combinational logic and clocked logic. The sensitivity list is called 'complete' when all signals which are read from within that process are in the sensitivity list, otherwise it has an 'incomplete' sensitivity list. Most, if not all, synthesis tools require that the processes used to describe combinational logic should have a 'complete' sensitivity list, while for synchronous logic only the reset, if any, and clock signals should be in the sensitivity list. Beside these two applications of processes with sensitivity lists, there is a vague support for other incomplete sensitivity lists, sometimes resulting in latches in the circuit and sometimes resulting in logic that does not have the proper behaviour. This paper focuses on the synthesis aspects of processes with an incomplete sensitivity list, and presents a method to synthesise a subset of these processes. Also, the problem of synthesising processes with an incomplete sensitivity list is discussed.","PeriodicalId":212876,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings VHDL International Users' Forum.

Hadlich","doi":"10.1109/VIUF.1997.623938","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/VIUF.1997.623938","url":null,"abstract":"VHDL is a text-based hardware description language but, traditionally, graphical representation was used for describing the structure and the architecture of hardware. Even today, the leading tools offer some graphical design entry and thus a graphical representation of its models. In general, these representations are not compatible to each other and, when transferring the VHDL model from one toolset to another, the graphical representation is lost. Also, when introducing an audience to a new hardware concept, the graphical representation helps for an easy understanding of the presented concepts. A solution to this situation would be to define a standard graphical representation for VHDL constructs. The graphical representation could be restricted to a standard representation of structural constructs. The graphical representation of behavioral constructs could be made open to the tool vendors. This definition does not require a change of VHDL in itself. A similar approach was taken to the formal description languages SDL and MSC, which have, besides their textual representation, a graphical representation. The author has had good experiences with SDL, which is a formal description technique. The language is powerful, has a growing acceptance and is well suited for hardware/software codesign. Based on this experience, the proposal for a graphical representation of VHDL is presented in this paper. The paper starts with a short introduction to SDL, followed by a demonstration of how graphic constructs could increase the acceptance of VHDL.","PeriodicalId":212876,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings VHDL International Users' Forum.

A systems engineer is required to examine and reconcile many information sources when making high-level design decisions. Although VHDL is an excellent digital system description language, it lacks the flexibility to address all systems-level issues. Digital system behavior and structure are effectively handled, but other facets are not. VSPEC represents one attempt to model other facets in the VHDL framework. It adds functional requirement and performance constraint modeling to the VHDL-based design process. This paper first describes VSPEC and its interaction with VHDL. It argues that VSPEC is an excellent first step towards a systems-level description language. However, other facets are needed to model complete systems. A language structure for representing these facets is proposed and a potential source for a semantic definition is identified.","PeriodicalId":212876,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings VHDL International Users' Forum.

The developed circuit performs the following main functions: UTOPIA/PB interface conversion for both the physical and ATM sides, and ATM cell header processing. The circuit is intended to be used in an ATM switching system and has been designed using a 0.5 /spl mu/m CMOS sea-of-gates library (3.3 V).

Sustainment of this equipment in the field is a major cost driver in the O&S (Operation & Support) cost equation due to the same problem. The development of F/sup 3/I (Form-Fit-Function-Interface) printed circuit assembly (PCA) level replacements for obsolete digital electronics provides the opportunity to solve both of these problems at minimum cost. The Wright Laboratories sponsored VDELE (VHDL Design Environment for Legacy Electronics) project has developed innovative methodologies for the development of F/sup 3/I clones for PCAs that have become obsolete due to DMS problems. The VDELE process extracts VHDL model and test information from the customer digital database and then applies commercially available tools to refine and validate the model in a virtual development environment. The refined VHDL simulation model is then provided to a qualified supplier in the form of a technology independent executable specification for synthesis into a clone PCA replacement. We present a brief description of the VDELE process and the application of the VDELE methodologies to the development of an FPGA (field programmable gate array) based prototype for an F-16 PCA seriously impacted by the DMS problem.","PeriodicalId":212876,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings VHDL International Users' Forum.

The simulation development team at IBM-Rochester has designed a durable simulation environment providing a highly abstract test-case language and an adaptable model interface. The environment consists of three types of models: the hardware being verified (concurrent VHDL), behavior models (sequential VHDL) and the simulation control manager (sequential VHDL). Initially, the entire environment was run on an event-simulation engine, but capacity limitations obviated the need to consider use of cycle simulation. However, the cycle-simulation engine in use at Rochester had no inherent support for sequential VHDL. The resulting solution required the development of a hybrid simulation environment which combined the best of both types of simulation engines. The architecture, implementation, benefits and limitations of this hybrid environment are the subject of this paper.","PeriodicalId":212876,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings VHDL International Users' Forum.
