Get Knowledge of Operators in VHDL with Examples

VHDL has wide range of Operators, which can be grouped into following

• Logical Operators
• Relational Operators
• Shift Operators.
• Miscellaneous Operators

Get Knowledge of Delay Types in VHDL

In VHDL, delays are specified only in signal assignment not in variable assignment. Delays are not synthesizable. There are two types of delay in VHDL Language.

1. Transport Delay
2. Inertial Delay

• Transport Delay : It is the delay model just delay the signal or change the value of the signal by the time specified in the after clause. It is the characteristic of the hardware elements that exhibits infinite frequency response. Any pulse is transmitted no matter how small it is.

Design BCD to 7-Segment Decoder using VHDL Code

Given below VHDL code will convert 4 bit BCD into equivalent seven segment number. It will accept 4 bit input and generate seven bit output. One seven segment can show zero to nine digit, so there is 4 bit input. Code is written for Common Cathode seven segment LED.So, LEDs will glow when the input is high. Find out Verilog Code here.
