Bibliography

Google hits a lot on old university course materials. Some good, some crappy. Almost nothing on GitHub... Good resources are very scarce.

Introduction tutorials:

• http://esd.cs.ucr.edu/labs/tutorial/ many examples
• http://userweb.eng.gla.ac.uk/scott.roy/DCD3/
• http://www.seas.upenn.edu/~ese171/vhdl/vhdl_primer.html

Language references:

• http://vhdl.renerta.com/mobile/index.html
• http://www.csee.umbc.edu/portal/help/VHDL/summary.html. Very good.

Examples:

• https://github.com/marceloboeira/vhdl-examples a few simple examples, but no test benches?
• https://github.com/silverjam/VHDL medium complexity examples, with test benches
• http://www.csee.umbc.edu/portal/help/VHDL/samples/samples.html not many, but good examples, including a square root calculator
• https://github.com/ucb-bar/plsi, specially https://github.com/ucb-bar/plsi/tree/master/src/addons/synthesis

University courses:
