| Term | Definition |
| File type | A type that provides access to objects containing a sequence of values of a given type. File types are typically used to access files in the host system environment. The value of a file object is the sequence of values contained in the host system file. |
| Floating point types | A discrete scalar type whose values approximate real numbers. The representation of a floating point type includes a minimum of six decimal digits of precision. |
| Foreign subprogram | A subprogram that is decorated with the attribute \'FOREIGN, defined in package STANDARD. The STRING value of the attribute may specify implementation-dependent information about the foreign subprogram. Foreign subprograms may have non-VHDL implementations. An implementation may place restrictions on the allowable modes, classes, and types of the formal parameters to a foreign subprogram, such as constraints on the number and allowable order of the parameters. |
| Formal | A formal port or formal generic of a design entity, a block statement, or a formal parameter of a subprogram. |
| Full declaration | A constant declaration occurring in a package body with the same identifier as that of a deferred constant declaration in the corresponding package declaration. A full type declaration is a type declaration corresponding to an incomplete type declaration. |
| Fully bound | A binding indication for the component instance implies an entity declaration and an architecture. |
