Agreed. SystemVerilog is now 90% of the market in the US. VHDL is now mostly used by a few fancy UK companies and the Defense industry.

I'm still looking for an online community of hardware developers like HN. Smenow, John Cooley's mailing list feels too 80s for me and Janick Bergeron's verification guild just never had enough traction. Is HW intrinsically more boring?




Not trying to be snarky at all, but can you cite a reference re: SystemVerilog = 90% of the US market? Very curious as I would consider myself to be a pretty experienced HDL user and have never seen SystemVerilog in the wild. I am guessing this is a FPGA vs. ASIC thing.


Yes, sorry, I meant for ASIC design of consumer chips.


If you want, you may visit reddit.com/r/electronics. Some discussions on /r/ece are also good.
