hardware description language (chip) (HDL)

Hardware description languages(HDL) are used to describe, synthesize, simulate and testdigital circuits; logics, gates, registers, arithmetic units, etc.

There are several hardware description languages for simple low complexity logic such as PALAssembler (PALASM) and ABEL, but also some for highly complex digital circuits. These include Very High Speed Hardware Description Language( VHDL) and Verilog from the company of the same name. The hardware description languages can be used to derive functional and state diagrams from Boolean functions of the circuit algebra. In addition, the description languages can be used to capture time sequences and detect synchronization problems.
