Hardware design with VHDL or Verilog is more like programming nowadays. However, I see SO members are not so actively talking about VHDL/Verilog programming.
Is there any forum dealing with hardware design with Verilog/VHDL/SystemVerilog or SystemC?
India and the United States have the largest volume of Google searches, and VHDL and Verilog appear to be roughly equal in popularity in India, and Verilog is slightly more popular in the United States than VHDL.
Verilog has a better grasp on hardware modeling, but has a lower level of programming constructs. Verilog is not as verbose as VHDL so that's why it's more compact. All in all, Verilog is pretty different from VHDL. There are some similarities, but they are overshadowed by their differences.
The main difference between Verilog and VHDL is that Verilog is based on C language while VHDL is based on Ada and Pascal languages. Both Verilog and VHDL are Hardware Description Languages (HDL). These languages help to describe hardware of digital system such as microprocessors, and flip-flops.
VHDL is a general-purpose programming language optimized for electronic circuit design. As such, there are many points in the overall design process at which VHDL can help.
Logic Design was closed because of too little attention. It's now reopened, but interest remains low.
