Internet VHDL Resources
The following list represents our (subjective) selection of
VHDL and EDA/CAD related WWW and ftp-servers.
Most public-domain or free VHDL stuff can be found there.
For more addresses, try one of the WWW search-engines.

The Free Model Foundry (FMF) provides free VITAL compliant VHDL models.
Besides hundreds of standard components and memories,
their model list also includes many current commercial parts
(e.g. Flash memories, dual-port memories, microcontrollers).

OpenCores |
From the OpenCores missions statement:
'OPENCORES.ORG is a repository of open source,
free IP synthesizable blocks and supplemental prototype boards.
Most of our cores are currently under development
but some are already available.'
