Abstract :
VHDL started to be standardized by the American government in February 1986 as a hardware description language for specifying military systems. Since then it has undergone two major revisions by the IEEE. This paper describes the use of VHDL in the design of a transputer Global Link Adapter (GLA) and the route taken to produce a final Xilinx FPGA using Viewlogic
