I’ve been told Verilog is more predominant in the US and VHDL in the EU. Any idea how that happened?

- UncleOxidant 6y agoYeah, it's very weird that a language developed by the DoD ended up popular in the EU but much less so in the US. I'm not sure why that happened. I did do a stint in Italy about 16 years ago and they preferred VHDL there at that time as well, so it's not exactly a new phenomenon. I did a VHDL project for a US company last year so it's not like it's completely unheard of here. Another way to look at it is that there are fewer people who know VHDL so when you do find places that are doing VHDL projects there's less competition.
