In this paper the new concepts of Verilog Hardware Description language is included in VLSI Design. end devices and affordable for the high end. Modern Keywords: Programmable Logic Array, FPGA, Verilog. HDL (hardware design language) environments are very powerful for creating and verifying a design. There I. INTRODUCTION is plenty of documentation available for using different vendor’s FPGA design tools and exploiting features of Very-large-scale integration (VLSI) is the process of different FPGAs. creating integrated circuits by combining thousands of Even with modern tools, the fundamentals of transistor-based circuits into a single chip. digital design still remain intact and must be Implementation is based on FPGA design flow with understood. If the fundamentals are ignored, there is a Xilinx tools which will help you to design complex good chance that your design will not work consistently digital systems using HDL and also to get experience of and will probably exhibit intermittent modes of processor and controller implementations on FPGAs.
