FFTs are generally defined recursively, so how hard can it be to write a recursive VHDL implementation of an FFT that can scale to any number of inputs for any chosen radix?

Compiling VHDL For The Missing Fixed And Floating Point Libraries
VHDL-2008 has added types sfixed, ufixed and float for fixed and floating point arithmetic, but you may struggle to use them with older tools. Here's how to fix that.

FIR Filter Implementation Comparisons
Having created the pipelined adder tree component, time to compare it with other implementations to see what value it adds.

Adder Trees Pipelined Efficiently by Recursion
Amusing myself with recursive structures in HDL that are entirely synthesisable and optimal in both size and clock speed. This is primarily a hierarchical construction problem made interesting by having to copy with a non-balance tree.

SRL Inferencing with Xilinx FPGAs
The inference of Xilinx SRLs is often believed to be dependent on the inclusion of a reset condition. Since the SRL does not have a reset input, it is logical that to infer use of SRLs, the HDL code must also exclude a reset pin. Or is it?
