If you punch in VHDL versus Verilog into Google Trends , you can start to get a pretty good idea of which language you should be learning first. From the above picture several things are interesting.
This means that the two are roughly as popular for people looking for information about them. I can only assume that this is when people are not at school or work and therefore not Googling their HDL problems.
This picture shows a clearer breakdown of country by country VHDL vs. I know from personal experience that in the United States the defense industry favors VHDL generally, while commercial industry favors Verilog. Easily reverse bit order of a word. Cons : Extremely verbose coding. Sensitivity lists. Missing a single signal in the sensitivity list can cause catastrophic differences between simulation and synthesis.
Each process must have a sensitivity list that may sometimes be very long. Type conversions. Signal types that are clearly related e.
Pros : Compact language. Small code footprint. Familiar language conventions similar to C. Mixing and matching signals is very easy. Reduction operators. Perform logical tests on an entire array of bits with a single operator.
Low-level descriptions closer to actual hardware. Instantiate gates directly. Explicitly declare wires and registers directly. Compiler directives. Cons : Weakly-typed language. Code is more error prone due to accidental combination of differing signal types.
Possible to create signal with a typo. No sensitivity lists. Needed a bit more clarity on the assignments. The lectures could have used a bit more explanation. I really liked this course. The Verilog section needs something similar. The objective of this course is to acquire proficiency with Field Programmable Gate Arrays FPGA s for the purpose of creating prototypes or products for a variety of applications.
Although FPGA design can be a complex topic, we will introduce it so that, with a little bit of effort, the basic concepts will be easily learned, while also providing a challenge for the more experienced designer.
Conception, design, implementation, and debugging skills will be practiced. We will learn specifics around embedded IP and processor cores, including tradeoffs between implementing versus acquiring IP. Projects will involve the latest software and FPGA development tools and hardware platforms to help develop a broad perspective of the capabilities of various Programmable SoC solutions.
Topics include:. Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:.
