Verilog Hardware
Verilog Hardware Description Language (HDL) is a specialized tool for designing digital circuits, enabling higher abstraction levels in complex embedded systems. The chapter covers fundamental concepts of HDLs, Verilog syntax, modeling techniques, and synthesis principles, providing a comprehensive understanding necessary for digital design.

What we have learnt
- HDLs provide higher abstraction for managing complexity in digital design and allow for simulation and synthesis of electronic circuits.
- Verilog's syntax includes keywords, data types, and operators that define hardware structure and behavior.
- Different modeling styles such as gate-level, dataflow, and behavioral in Verilog cater to various design requirements.
Key Concepts
- -- Hardware Description Language (HDL)
- A language for formally describing the structure and behavior of electronic circuits.
- -- Verilog Syntax
- The set of rules governing the structure of Verilog code, including keywords, identifiers, and comments.
- -- Blocking vs. Nonblocking Assignments
- Blocking assignments execute sequentially within procedural blocks, while non-blocking assignments are scheduled to occur at the end of the current time step, critical for modeling sequential logic.
