VHDL
Engineering (Mechanical, Electrical, Civil and Environmental)
VHDL (VHSIC Hardware Description Language) is a hardware description language used to model, simulate, and synthesize digital and mixed-signal electronic systems, particularly FPGAs and ASICs. Originally developed for the U.S. Department of Defense, it is widely used in aerospace, defense, and industrial electronics design alongside Verilog. Digital design engineers use it to describe circuit behavior before it is implemented in physical hardware.
