ANN: clash - from haskell to hardware

I'm pleased to announced to first official release of the new CλaSH compiler! Website: http://christiaanb.github.io/clash2 Hackage: http://hackage.haskell.org/package/clash-ghc Github: https://github.com/christiaanb/clash2 From the website: CλaSH (pronounced ‘clash’) is a functional hardware description language that borrows both its syntax and semantics from the functional programming language Haskell. The merits of using a functional language to describe hardware comes from the fact that combinational circuits can be directly modelled as mathematical functions and that functional languages lend themselves very well at describing and (de-)composing mathematical functions. The CλaSH compiler transforms these high-level descriptions to low-level synthesizable VHDL. There is a tutorial at: http://hackage.haskell.org/package/clash-prelude/docs/CLaSH-Tutorial.html Which also lists the (nearly-compulsory) comparison between CλaSH and Lava. -- Christiaan Baaij
