The biggest project I have worked on was the VHDL discrete filter, carried out along with two colleagues. The idea was to make use of all we learned about digital circuits so we implemented a RAM, adders, various types of registers, finite state machines, and we all went through the nightmare of 'looking for the bug' and creating testbenchs for vhdl. But more importantly that an innocent looking modification may break others' job. | The biggest project I have worked on was the VHDL discrete filter, carried out along with two colleagues.
