The compiler keeps track of many aspects of your hardware design, and displays them in the editor. Core Philosophy The SUS HDL is meant to be a direct competitor to Synthesizeable Verilog and VHDL. Its main goal is to be an intuitive and thin syntax for building netlists, such that traditional synthesis tools can still be used to analyze the resulting hardware. SUS shall impose no paradigm on the hardware designer, such as requiring specific communication protocols or iteration constructs. In other words, SUS is not there to abstract away complexity, but rather to make the inherent complexity of hardware design more manageable. The one restriction SUS does impose over Verilog and VHDL is that it requires the hardware to be synchronous over one or more clocks. Asynchronous hardware is therefore unrepresentable making SUS less suitable for ASIC development.
