The key idea behind MyHDL is the use of Python generators to model hardware concurrency. Generators are best described as resumable functions. In MyHDL, generators are used in a specific way so that they become similar to always blocks in Verilog or processes in VHDL.
A hardware module is modeled as a function that returns any number of generators. This approach makes it straightforward to support features such as arbitrary hierarchy, named port association, arrays of instances, and conditional instantiation.
MyHDL is an open-source package for using Python as a hardware description and verification language. A Verilog converter is also included.
