This directory contains the files describing the HLS benchmark 
example, the elliptic wave filter. They are organized as follows : 

  o ellip.vhdl : The VHDL behavioral model for the elliptical
                 filter.

  o ellip.doc : Describes the elliptic filter in brief.

  o test_vectors.vhdl : A 'test' process built around the VHDL
                        model of the elliptical filter.

  o test_vectors.doc : A brief document on the test vectors 
                       described in "test_vectors.vhdl".

  o cmd.inc : Simulation command file for running the test vectors
              on the Zycad simulator.


*****************************************************************
   To run the test vectors for elliptic filter 
*****************************************************************


     (a) Compile the three VHDL files -- bit_functions.vhdl, ellip.vhdl
         and test_vectors.vhdl -- by invoking the command
                  zvan <vhdl file name with extension>

     (b) Run the simulation using the command 
                  zvsim -t ns -i cmd.inc E

   The simulation output will appear in a file called "run.out".
   If there are any errors in simulation, "Assert" statements
   will appear in this file, mentioning the port at which the
   error occurred and the expected value.
