Designers are increasingly using VHDL for high-level modeling. However, their task is hindered by the lack of object-oriented and genericity features in the language. Experience in programming languages shows that these features significantly aid management of complexity in large designs and promote re-use of modules. SUAVE extends VHDL by adapting several object-oriented and genericity features from Ada-95. The extensions improve support for modeling in VHDL from system level down to gate level. This article describes the extensions and illustrates their use with examples.
