Indeed, one might say it's more of a mark up decription of what you  would like to see the hardware been rather than a S/W program to run on the H/W. Sounds so pedantic doesn't it ;-)JA On Thursday, 9 January 2020, 22:11:31 GMT, Norman Dunbar via Ql-Users wrote: See! I said I knew not

Yes , think of it of a high level and standardised method of describing the configuration of your FPGA hardware rather than a program for it to execute.For example I could define  logic blocks to act as flipflops and attach the input to one pin and the out put to another they don't need to  int
