Thanks, my slip up. The rest stands, RTL hasn't been used since before most people here were born.

  RTL means something different in FPGA/ASIC-land (Register-Transfer Level.) It simply refers to the practice of low-level 'coding' in an HDL, as opposed to even lower-level schematic or gate-level entry, or higher-level synthesis based on IP core generators or traditional programming languages.

    With only 17,576 different possibilities, TLAs are bound to alias. RTL in electronics can mean both register transfer level and Resistor-Transistor-Logic. If you are old enough, you will have used both.

      Exactly. I not only missed out on the original RTL, but I never even had to use a 74xx TTL part number that didn't have at least an 'LS' or an 'F' in the middle.
