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.
A generate–endgenerate construct (similar to VHDL's generate–endgenerate) allows Verilog-2001 to control instance and statement instantiation through normal decision operators (case–if–else). Using generate–endgenerate, Verilog-2001 can instantiate an array of instances, with control over the connectivity of the individual instances.
High-level synthesis (HLS), sometimes referred to as C synthesis, electronic system-level (ESL) synthesis, algorithmic synthesis, or behavioral synthesis, is an automated design process that takes an abstract behavioral specification of a digital system and finds a register-transfer level structure that realizes the given behavior.
Verilogger Extreme is a newer, compiled-code simulator that is Verilog-2001 compliant and much faster than Pro. Verilog-XL: Cadence Design Systems: V1995: The original Verilog simulator, Gateway Design's Verilog-XL was the first (and only, for a time) Verilog simulator to be qualified for ASIC (validation) sign-off.
Icarus Verilog *BSD, Linux, Mac: GPL-2.0-or-later: Verilog simulator Verilator: Posix: LGPL-3.0-only or Artistic-2.0: Verilator is the fastest free Verilog HDL simulator. It compiles synthesizable Verilog into cycle accurate C++ or SystemC code following 2-state synthesis (zero delay) semantics.
MyHDL [1] is a Python-based hardware description language (HDL).. Features of MyHDL include: The ability to generate VHDL and Verilog code from a MyHDL design. [2]The ability to generate a testbench (Conversion of test benches [3]) with test vectors in VHDL or Verilog, based on complex computations in Python.
SystemVerilog for register-transfer level (RTL) design is an extension of Verilog-2005; all features of that language are available in SystemVerilog. Therefore, Verilog is a subset of SystemVerilog. SystemVerilog for verification uses extensive object-oriented programming techniques and is more closely related to Java than Verilog. These ...
System Verilog is the first major HDL to offer object orientation and garbage collection. Using the proper subset of hardware description language, a program called a synthesizer, or logic synthesis tool , can infer hardware logic operations from the language statements and produce an equivalent netlist of generic hardware primitives [ jargon ...
