This book assumes no previous knowledge of digital design. You start at the beginning learning about basic gates, logic equations, Boolean algebra, and Karnaugh maps. In over 75 examples we show you how to design digital circuits using VHDL and simulate and synthesize them using Xilinx's free development environment, Vivado. You can synthesize the designs to a Xilinx Artix-7 FPGA on either the BASYS(TM) system board that can be purchased from Digilent, Inc (www.digilentinc.com) or any of the Nexys boards. We have prepared 112 short video clips that cover all of the material in this book and they are available free on YouTube. To find these, go to www.youtube.com/user/LBEbooks/playlists and click on Digital Design VHDL. To synthesize your designs to a Xilinx FPGA you will need to download Vivado from Xilinx, Inc. (www.xilinx.com). All references to the BASYS board in this book apply to the BASYS3 board. All of the user constraints (.xdc) files for each board can be downloaded from http: //www.lbebooks.com/downloads.htm.
