VHDL

Using Raspberry Pi and Arduino to Experiment with Verilog, TCL, and VHDL

1. Set Up Your Development Environment

  • Raspberry Pi: Install a suitable operating system (e.g., Raspbian) and set up a code editor like VS Code.
  • Arduino: Install the Arduino IDE for writing and uploading sketches to the Arduino board.

2. Install Necessary Tools

  • Raspberry Pi: Install tools like GHDL (for VHDL), Icarus Verilog (for Verilog), and cocotb (for testing).
  • Arduino: Use the Arduino IDE for writing and uploading sketches.

3. Connect Raspberry Pi and Arduino

  • Use GPIO pins on the Raspberry Pi to connect to the Arduino. You can use a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) link for communication.

4. Write and Test Your Code

  • Verilog and VHDL: Write your HDL code using GHDL and Icarus Verilog on the Raspberry Pi. Use GTKWave for waveform analysis.
  • TCL: Use TCL scripts for automation and testing of your HDL code.
  • Arduino: Write sketches in the Arduino IDE and upload them to the Arduino board.

5. Simulate and Verify

  • Use GHDL and Icarus Verilog to simulate your HDL code on the Raspberry Pi.
  • Use cocotb to write and run testbenches for your HDL code.

Example Setup

Setting up GHDL on Raspberry Pi

sudo apt update
sudo apt install ghdl gtkwave
ghdl --version
