Verilog is a Hardware Description Language (HDL) pivotal in digital circuit design, enabling engineers to model systems from logic gates to microprocessors. It supports various abstraction levels, including behavioral, RTL, and gate-level. SystemVerilog, an extension of Verilog, introduces object-oriented features and advanced verification tools, enhancing design and testing. Comparisons with VHDL highlight Verilog's faster simulation and C-like syntax, while practical examples showcase its application in real-world scenarios.
