Abstract In this paper , a design and implementation of synthesizable VHDL model for control system ( Controller ) of the Personal Computer Memory Card International Association ( PCMCIA ) cards , which are called memory PC Cards ( SRAM and FLASH ) , is presented . The system software for this controller has been developed using OrCAD program based on VHDL ( Very high speed Hardware Description language ) as software environment and Xilinx Spartan - XL ( XCS10XL - 4 TQ144 ) FPGA ( Filed Programmable Gate Array ) chip as hardware device , so the develo ment becomes more reliable , modular , and adaptable to new requirements . The timing behavior of the controller is verified to ensure that it meets the performance requirements by using timing simulation tools of OrCAD program , therefore complete simulation results of read / write transfers for both an attribute and a common memories are presented in this paper .
