Hi All

Is VHDL just for qualified emgimeers ?

I am a old elect. techition with alot of experince and knowledge.

I want to get into VHDL based designing.

What are my theoretical chances ?
Thanks

Yes...in the sense that no tool should be in the hands of 'unqualified'

engineers. But like any other skill it can be learned and mastered. It's
like learning any other new language, it can be done.

Presumably boolean logic and some knowledge of how to write software is

included in that experience.

I want to get into VHDL based designing.

Depending on your motivation, 100% is not unreasonable. Good luck in your

endeavor.

Suggest VHDL book by Pedroni is a good start.

My suggestion: start with http://www.vhdl.org/
Dig into the comp.lang.vhdl FAQ: http://www.vhdl.org/comp.lang.vhdl/
And start reading this newsgroup on a regular basis.

Theoretically? Why, between 0% and 100 % of course! ;-)
Practically? Put in a bit of time and perseverance, and 100% should be
possible.
