This zip file contains the following folders:

		\vhdl_source		-- Source VHDL files:
					med.vhd 	- top level file
					me.vhd		- encoder portion 
					md.vhd		- decoder portion
					
	
		\vhdl_testfixture		-- VHDL Testbench files. This files only include the testbench behavior, they
				  	 do not instantiate the DUT. This can easily be done in a top-level VHDL 
				   	 file or a schematic. This folder contains the following files:

					md_tf.vhd		-- Test fixture for md.vhd.

					me_tf.vhd		-- Test fixture for me.vhd.
	
This design is targeted to the XCR3064XL-7VQ100C CoolRunner CPLD. This is a 3V, 64 macrocell device in a 100 VQFP package. The fitter was allowed to pick the pin-out for the device. 


Please also note that this design has been verified through simulations, but not on actual hardware.
