Talk:VHDL-AMS

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

It must be noted that VHDL is NOT a programming language.[citation needed] It is a hardware description language.

HDLs are not suited for software developments but there are turing-complete programming languages. Especially, a test bench is often a plain sequential procedural piece of code.

At the same time, the concurrent execution concept of HDLs is also available in different forms for software programming, from threaded execution to language support, like Occam or Erlang.

I would write something like 'VHDL is not a software programming language but instead an language suited for hardware development and testing'
