History of VHDL
• VHDL was developed by the VHSIC (Very High Speed Integrated Circuit) Program in the late 1970s and early 1980s
œ The VHSIC program was funded by the U.S. Department of Defense
œ Existing tools were inadequate for complex hardware designs
• The evolution of VHDL has included the following milestones:
œ In 1981, VHDL was first proposed as a hardware description language
œ In 1986, VHDL was proposed as an IEEE standard
œ In 1987, the first VHDL standard (IEEE-1076-1987) was adopted
œ In 1993, a revised VHDL standard (IEEE-1076-1993) was adopted
œ In 2002, the current VHDL standard (IEEE-1076-2002) was adopted
• VHDL is now used extensively by industry and academia for the purpose of simulating and synthesizing digital circuit designs
