A hardware description language enables a precise, formal description of an electronic circuit that allows for the automated analysis and simulation of the circuit. It also allows for the synthesis of an HDL description into a netlist (a specification of physical electronic components and how they are connected together), which can then be ...

VHDL source for a signed adder. VHDL (VHSIC Hardware Description Language) is a hardware description language that can model the behavior and structure of digital systems at multiple levels of abstraction, ranging from the system level down to that of logic gates, for design entry, documentation, and verification purposes.
However, system design and functional verification in a hardware description language can be tedious and time-consuming, so systems engineers often write critical modules in HDL and other modules in a high-level language and synthesize these into HDL through C to HDL or high-level synthesis tools. C to RTL is another name for this methodology.
Chisel inherits the object-oriented and functional programming aspects of Scala for describing digital hardware. Using Scala as a basis allows describing circuit generators. High quality, free access documentation exists in several languages. [4] Circuits described in Chisel can be converted to a description in Verilog for synthesis and simulation.
Verilog, standardized as IEEE 1364, is a hardware description language (HDL) used to model electronic systems.It is most commonly used in the design and verification of digital circuits, with the highest level of abstraction being at the register-transfer level.
