clash-ghc-1.8.1: Clash: a functional hardware description language - GHC frontend

Clash is a functional hardware description language that borrows both its syntax and semantics from the functional programming language Haskell. The Clash compiler transforms these high-level descriptions to low-level synthesizable VHDL, Verilog, or SystemVerilog.

Features of Clash:

  • Strongly typed, but with a very high degree of type inference, enabling both safe and fast prototyping using concise descriptions.
  • Interactive REPL: load your designs in an interpreter and easily test all your component without needing to setup a test bench.
  • Higher-order functions, with type inference, result in designs that are fully parametric by default.
  • Synchronous sequential circuit design based on streams of values, called Signals, lead to natural descriptions of feedback loops.
  • Support for multiple clock domains, with type safe clock domain crossing.

This package provides:

  • Clash Compiler binary using GHC/Haskell as a frontend
