Examples
For example, most constructs that explicitly deal with timing such as wait for 10 ns; are not synthesizable despite being valid for simulation.
More ambitious customers, including integrated device manufacturers (IDM) and foundry operators, choose to acquire the processor IP in synthesizable RTL ( Verilog ) form.
These changes should improve quality of synthesizable VHDL code, make testbenches more flexible, and allow wider use of VHDL for system-level descriptions.
While different synthesis tools have different capabilities, there exists a common synthesizable subset of VHDL that defines what language constructs and idioms map into common hardware for many synthesis tools.
With the synthesizable RTL, the customer has the ability to perform architectural level optimisations and extensions.
