Chisel (hardware construction language)

Chisel (Constructing Hardware in a Scala Embedded Language) is a hardware construction language used to design digital circuits and systems. It allows engineers to write high-level code, similar to programming, which is then translated into detailed hardware descriptions. This approach makes designing complex circuits more efficient and easier to manage. Chisel leverages modern software programming concepts, facilitating better testing and reuse of code. It is particularly beneficial for creating Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) and custom integrated circuits, blending the worlds of software and hardware design.
