Vhdl Guidance for Safe and Certifiable Fpga Design

چکیده
Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are becoming increasingly popular for use within high integrity and safety critical systems. One commonly used coding language for their configuration is the VHSIC Hardware Description Language (VHDL). Whilst VHDL is used for hardware description, it is developed in a similar way to traditional software, and many safety critical software certification standards require the use of coding subsets and style guidance in order to ensure known language vulnerabilities are avoided. At present there is no recognized, public domain guidance for VHDL. This paper draws together many different sources to provide a starting discussion for a VHDL subset.

متن کاملAn Efficient LUT Design on FPGA for Memory-Based Multiplication
An efficient Lookup Table (LUT) design for memory-based multiplier is proposed. This multiplier can be preferred in DSP computation where one of the inputs, which is filter coefficient to the multiplier, is fixed. In this design, all possible product terms of input multiplicand with the fixed coefficient are stored directly in memory. In contrast to an earlier proposition Odd Multiple Storage ...
