Talk:Register transfer language

Not just GCC
It's true that GCC uses a RTL, but many compilers use register transfer languages internally. I think that this article should be about RTLs in general, not just GCC's (though that may make an interesting section, since GCC is an important compiler). Brighterorange 17:41, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Agreed. --Mike Van Emmerik 04:57, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I also agree. The article makes it seem like GCC is the only place where it is used, and that the form presented is the only form used.  RTL is used a lot in teaching CPU design so I think this article should offer a more detailed explanation

I'm changing it to make it clearer, but it should probably be expanded upon. EvanED 16:59, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

HDLs
I thought in the context of HDLs, RTL meant "register transfer level", describing the level of the design description (as opposed to gate/transistor level). I've never heard it expanded as "register transfer language" in this context. --CTho 01:43, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

I think you are right. I'll change the references in the EDA pages. LouScheffer 02:41, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

I modified Design For Test also. --CTho 04:18, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

New Page
A new page is required. As stated above RTL in the context of HDLs stands for "Register Transfer Level" Graemec2 13:33, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
