Verilog HDL

Verilog HDL is the most widely used hardware description language. Verilog HDL can be used for a variety of levels of logic design, digital system can also be logic synthesis, simulation and timing analysis. Verilog HDL for algorithm level, register-level, logic level, gate-level and layout level design and various levels of description.
 
Verilog HDL design of the biggest advantages is its process independence. This allows engineers in the functional design, logic verification phase can not have too much to consider gate-level implementation details and the process, simply based on system design requirements impose different constraints, you can design the actual circuit. Verilog HDL is a hardware description language (hardware description language), to produce the digital circuits used to describe the design of ASICs and FPGA use. Verilog designers who want to C programming language, a language-based design, engineers can more easily learn. Verilog by en: Gateway Design Automation Corporation began to develop in about 1984. Gateway Design Automation's Cadence Design Systems was later acquired in 1990 years. Now for the Gateway's Cadence Verilog and Verilog-XL simulator has all property rights. Select VHDL or verilog HDL? This is a most common beginner questions. In fact, the difference between the two languages ​​are not large, their descriptive power is similar. After one of these languages ​​to master, through short-term study, learn another language faster. Choose the language in which mainly depends on the crowd around the use of habit, so you can easily exchange for future study. Of course, if you are application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) designers, you must first master the verilog, because in the IC design field, more than 90% of companies are using verilog for IC design. For the PLD / FPGA designers, the two languages ​​are free to choose.
 
Designers through the computer simulation of the HDL language to logic and logic synthesis, easily and efficiently design digital circuits and their products.
