About VHDL files
A .VHDL file is a source code document written in VHSIC Hardware Description Language, a standard defined by IEEE 1076. Engineers use these files to model, simulate, and synthesize digital circuits for hardware like FPGAs (Field-Programmable Gate Arrays) and ASICs. While technically plain text, opening a .VHDL file in a standard word processor is frustrating because it lacks the syntax highlighting and project context provided by heavy Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools like AMD Vivado or ModelSim. Furthermore, sharing raw code files can lead to version control issues or unintended edits. For documentation and archiving, converting .VHDL to PDF is the best practice, as it freezes the code state and preserves readability for non-engineers. For interoperability with other design teams, you might need to convert the logic to Verilog (SystemVerilog) or simply TXT for quick viewing in lightweight editors.
Convert.Guru analyzes your VHDL file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted VHD, XPR, ZIP, PDF, PCAPNG, EX5, BIN, JIC, EFI and TB3 files.
The VHDL Converter Story
The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our VHDL converter.
