I’m from Norway, but I live in Bangkok, Thailand. Before I started VHDLwhiz, I worked as an FPGA engineer in the defense industry. I earned my master’s degree in informatics at the University of Oslo.

How to create a concurrent statement in VHDL
A concurrent statement in VHDL is a signal assignment within the architecture, but outside of a normal process construct. The concurrent statement is also referred to as a concurrent assignment or concurrent process. When you create a concurrent statement, you are actually creating a process with certain, clearly defined characteristics. Concurrent statements are always equivalent…
How to use constants and Generic Map in VHDL
Creating modules is a great way to reuse code, but often you need the same module with smaller variations throughout your design. This is what generics and the generic map are for. It allows you to make certain parts of the module configurable at compile-time. Constants are used when we want to avoid typing the…
How to create a ring buffer FIFO in VHDL
Circular buffers are popular constructs for creating queues in sequential programming languages, but they can also be implemented in hardware. In this article, we will create a ring buffer in VHDL to implement a FIFO in block RAM. There are many design decisions you will have to make when implementing a FIFO. What kind of…
How to use a procedure in a process in VHDL
It is possible to drive external signals from a procedure. As long as the signal is within the scope of the procedure, it can be accessed for reading or writing, even if it isn’t listed in the parameter list. Procedures that are declared in the declarative region of the architecture, cannot drive any external signals….
How to create a PWM controller in VHDL
Pulse-width modulation (PWM) is an efficient way to control analog electronics from purely digital FPGA pins. Instead of attempting to regulate the analog voltage, PWM rapidly switches on and off the supply current at full power to the analog device. This method gives us precise control over the moving average of energy provided to the…
Formal verification in VHDL using PSL
When designing VHDL for safety-critical FPGA applications, it’s not enough to write testbenches at best-effort. You have to present proof that the module works as intended and without undesirable side-effects. Formal verification techniques can help you map a requirement to a test, proving that your VHDL module conforms to the specification. It’s an instrumental tool…
Dear Jonas
Thanks for the content, thumbs up. please keep up the good work!
Best Regards
Thanks! That’s good to hear.
You are doing a very nice job. Top quality!
Thanks! I really appreciate your comment.
Hello Jonas

These tutorials are the best thing on the internet.
Thank you for creating them.
Thanks! That’s encouraging to hear. I will do my best to keep up the quality of my blog posts.
Thank you so much man you are awesome! i learnt vhdl in university but i forgot after all years. i started again working. You help me too much! i will continue to course after this beginner course. i am planning the begin beginner fast track ! please dont stop the teaching us . thank you so much! greetings from turkey 🙂
Hello, Utku. Thank you for the nice comment! I’m glad you found my blog to be helpful. I will keep the free and premium content coming your way.
Thank you for providing such great content on a subject that imo can be tricky to really understand. But you make it easy for everyone!
That’s great to hear! I will keep on creating tutorials and articles for you. ?
Dear Jonas,
I’m an electronic engineer from Morocco, currently studying for a masters degree in microelectronics and sensors in France.
You helped me a lot to remember some of the vhdl basics and get more further into it.
I worked on an academic project using basys3 and vivado for a vga controller.
Thank you very much for this great content, keep up the good work.
I’m glad you like the quiz. It’s a good way to refresh your knowledge. 🙂
Excellent learning tool
Thanks! By the way, I also use quizzes in the VHDLwhiz membership.
Great tutorials! Short and sweet!
I’ll be sure to go onto the FPGA and VHDL Fast-Track after completing the basic tutorials..
Thanks, Dale! Also, check out the VHDLwhiz Membership, which gives you multiple courses, resource items, and coding challenges and supports your success in FPGA design.
Nice quiz, only problem is sharing your score on facebook is not working.
Thanks for the feedback. I’ve created a task on this. I’ll see if I can fix it when I have the time.
