VHDL Training

VHDL training is an essential course for taking a jumpstart in VLSI design domain. VHDL stands for VHSIC Hardware Description Language where VHSIC can be further expanded to Very High Speed Integrated Circuit. VHDL is widely used in electronic design automation.

This comprehensive course commences by introducing VLSI (Very Large Scale Integration). Advance digital design concepts are delivered to build the foundation for understanding VHDL language. The course explains the use of VHDL language in logic design and its code structure. Participants gain the understanding and building skills of VHDL constructs that can be synthesized into programmable logic device hardware. The learning curve encompasses ModelSIM and Xilinx.

Upon the completion of training, you will be proficient in the following skillset:

• Understanding the concept of VLSI
• Learn the basic building blocks for advanced digital design
• Learn about VHDL and different design levels
• Distinguish coding between primitive, data flow, behavioral and structural programming
• Explore state machine and machine designing
• Manage designs using ModelSIM and Xilinx
• Process of synthesis of VHDL

Target audience

• Final year engineering and IT graduate students
• Professionals switching to VLSI design domain
