What you will learn

Practical FPGA and ASIC RTL design using VHDL

Why take this course?

Twelve lectures, starting from the basics of VHDL, including the entity, architecture, and process.  Explanations of the difference in sequential and concurrent VHDL.  Discussions of good synchronous design methodology.  Demonstrations on how to use the Altera Modelsim and Xilinx Vivado simulators. Six lab projects for hands-on experience, with the instructor showing how he would have done each lab.

if the course would have been explained with more examples on the syles with proper code would have been more helpfull. but i am happy i have learn new aspects of coding.

A very good introductory course that was instrumental to my understanding of VHDL. Thanks to this course I was able to prepare myself for the practical side of an University project that resulted in very satisfactory results.

As someone who wants to be in the Hardware Design Engineering industry. This course would go a long way in addition to my PCB design skills. The only issue I have with it is the slides are not really accessible but as a beginner who wants to gain experience in this is actually worth it.

It is quite good so far, some slight annoyances with some relatively complex terminology being glossed over, but this may change as the course goes continues.

Very good course but extremely slow and repetitive. Having the whole code read is annoying. It would be better if only the really important fragments were emphasized and elaborated on.

Hervorragender Einstieg, aber auch sehr gut geeignet, um lückenhaftes schnell zusammengesuchtes Wissen auf eine solide Basis zu bringen. Das Tempo passt perfekt für diese Zwecke, und der Stoff wird solide und präzise dargeboten. Scott ist in meinen Augen ein hervorragender Lehrer!

Pretty good course, the only feedback I have is that the answers to the quiz questions is always the first answer. Once I realized that, it sort of made the quizes less helpful. Not sure if that's a Udemy thing

I rarely give five stars but I feel this course deserves it. The instructor kept the course at a reasonable pace and the section assignments helped solidify the concepts with application of the material from the lectures.

Good course. The instructor seems very knowledgeable, and the course is well organized. My only complaints are that there are no slides or material provided, so there is not reference material afterwards, and you have to type a lot if you want to take notes. And very often the instructor just reads the code in the screen without adding any valuable information.

One of the best course to learn vhdl on udemy, the teacher explains the reasoning behind every structure and how to use them. Easily, one of the best investment i have made

Excellent class on VHDL design and programming. This course takes you from the ground up on VHDL, with the expectation you have some experience in digital logic design. The labs were nicely designed so that you build upon what you learn. The first labs will take the most time, but then they are just tweaks after that. Also, the pace was just right for me. It wasn't too fast or slow. There's lots of material covered, and you can go back in the lectures to review any particular topic. Great resource, thanks Mr. Scott Dickson! I have taken VLSI and SoC design classes as part of my Electrical and Computer Engineering Masters degree more than 7 years ago. Those courses were more focused on theory, and bigger picture topics (e.g. how to design efficient adder) rather than the VHDL or Verilog language itself. It was expected the graduate student pickup the programming language and tools on their own, thus MANY hours in the lab or at home struggling to figure out how everything works. I recall doing many google searches (leading to stackoverflow) to find the answers I needed. The class book was helpful too, no doubt. This UDEMY course was much more focused on VHDL itself, and the test bench lecture was particularly helpful. I plan on taking the advanced class. I've heard from many FPGA developer that I worked with that its easier to get into the field of FPGA development as a FPGA verification engineer. :)

This was a good match. I was looking for a VHDL design refresher after 20 years of not designing with VHDL, and 3 years away from Verilog/System Verilog ASIC design work.

great introductory course on VHDL and hardware design. lots of good material here and I feel like I missed all this info in my college days when first learning about FPGA. gained a much more solid understanding after taking this course.
