Sometime ago, someone posted a VHDL and maybe a verilog core for the PIC. Since I am busy with my own FPGA designs at the moment, never did look at this >how about an FPGA with embedded microcontroler core ? >The paralellism of HDL is due to device architecture, not the S/W. >Various micros may allow better or worse software simulation of this, >but it is only that, simulation.
