VHDL/Verilog related programming forums?

Question

Hardware design with VHDL or Verilog is more like programming nowadays. However, I see SO members are not so actively talking about VHDL/Verilog programming.

Is there any forum dealing with hardware design with Verilog/VHDL/SystemVerilog or SystemC?

Solution 1

Logic Design was closed because of too little attention. It's now reopened, but interest remains low.

Solution 2

Here is a summary:

• comp.arch.fpga
• comp.lang.verilog
• comp.lang.vhdl
• EDA Board
• Altera Forum
• Cadence Community Forum
• Mentor Verification Academy (SystemVerilog User's Group, OVM/UVM)
• Xilinx Forum
• Verification Guild
• EETop (in Chinese, Google translate is your friend)
• Sonsivri (private forum)
• LinkedIn (there are a number of groups here)

Solution 3

comp.lang.vhdl

http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.vhdl/

I haven't actively read it in a couple years, but I recall it being a great source, with some very knowledgeable and helpful people. Looking at it now it appears to be getting a lot of spam, which is unfortunate.

Solution 4

IRC: ##verilog, ##vhdl, ##fpga on irc.freenode.net

Netnews: comp.arch.fpga (http://groups.google.com/group/comp.arch.fpga/topics)

Solution 5

Xilinx and Altera FPGA forums deal with different aspects of using Verilog/VHDL for FPGAs.

My feeling is that the glorious days of this usenet group are past. Lots of spam, lots of flame wars. Still some very knowledgable people, though.

edaboard.com is in general very good, but in my humble opinion has a somewhat high density of low quality questions (but quite amusing)

Mentor's SystemVerilog forum is now [here].(forum.verificationacademy.com/forum/…)

Actually, it move again verificationacademy.com/forums/systemverilog/…

Seems to be closed again. I would just use electronics.stackexchange.com - there are 1400 Verilog questions.
