What is RTL coding?

RTL (Register-Transfer Level) coding is a design abstraction used in digital circuit design. It describes a digital circuit in terms of the flow of digital signals (data) between hardware registers, and the logical operations performed on those signals. RTL coding is commonly used in the design of integrated circuits such as microprocessors, ASICs, and FPGAs. It's a crucial step in the hardware design flow, bridging the gap between high-level algorithmic descriptions and the physical implementation of the circuit.
