Re: TYPE CONVERSION

I copied these lines from some other postings. Search this group for
" Type conversion with characters "

int_x <= CHARACTER'POS(char_a);
char_a <= CHARACTER'VAL(int_x);


use ieee.numeric_std.all;
....
slv_vec <= STD_LOGIC_VECTOR(TO_UNSIGNED(CHARACTER'POS(char_a) , Nbits));

where Nbits is the number of bits slv_vec'LENGTH.

Good luck,
Troy
