Practical Differences and Application Strategies of HDL in FPGA and ASIC Design

Practical Differences and Application Strategies of HDL in FPGA and ASIC Design

Hardware Description Language (HDL) is the cornerstone of modern digital system design, used as the core tool to describe hardware behavior and structure in both Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) and Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASIC). However, the fundamental differences in implementation, design processes, and target applications between FPGA and ASIC lead to significant differences in … Read more
