About the book

The book introduces the practical application of programmable logic circuits, contains a description of the basic functional features of the CoolRunner II family, specifies the use of free software tools, includes the introduction to the VHDL language and examples of project implementation. It is addressed to a wide range of hobbyists involved in the application of logic and digital circuits.

A fragment of the book

"All presented projects are implemented in VHDL language. The common opinion about this language suggests that it is a very complex and difficult to learn design tool. The VHDL language is very universal, it allows the implementation of very complex and complex digital systems. These features must be reflected in the language specification, and indeed, getting to know its full potential requires a lot of effort. For practical implementation, even quite complex projects, in the VHDL language, it is sufficient to master a subset of it. The task of this book is to help in this area. The author is convinced that after reading it will disappear many myths accumulated around the language of VHDL. "
