This course is about the automatic generation of digital circuits from high-level descriptions. Modern electronic systems are specified in Hardware Description Languages and are converted automatically into digital circuits. We will introduce the VHDL Hardware Description Language, and follow it up with a discussion of the basics of synthesis topics including High-level Synthesis, FSM Synthesis, Retiming, and Logic Synthesis.
