[Bob Alexander] is in the process of designing a homebrew discrete TTL CPU, and wanted a way to enter schematics for digital simulations via a Verilog RTL flow. Since KiCAD is pretty good at handling ...

Many years ago, when I was a young man and the Boston Red Sox had just lost the 1986 world series, controversy stalked the land of hardward development. A new technology called Register Transfer ...

Never in my wildest dreams did I think that the Verilog hardware description language (HDL) would spawn an industry and be a fixture of electronics design for more than 15 years. HDLs were a ...

US reverse engineering experts ChipWorks have developed a browser that rebuilds parts of any chip into schematics and VHDL or Verilog from an analysis of the different layers of the device. ChipWorks ...

A key part of any analogue design flow is having models of the components for simulation. Traditional Spice models of basic components such as transistors and capacitors written in C or C++ are ...

The guys over at hackshed have been busy. [Carl] is making programmable logic design easy with an 8 part CPLD tutorial. (March 2018: Link dead. Try the Wayback Machine.) Programmable logic devices are ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. This article discusses techniques used to achieve this transition, including proxy SystemVerilog interface task calls ...

This paper describes the design & verification methodology used on a recent large mixed signal System on a Chip (SoCs) which contained radio frequency (RF), analog, mixed-signal and digital blocks on ...

This paper describes the history of the Verilog hardware description language (HDL), including its influential predecessors and successors. Since its creation in 1984 and first sale in 1985, Verilog ...
