CHDL Abbrev. for computer hardware description language. A formal language with a lexicon that enables the nomination of the individual logical or physical elements of a computer. It has a syntax to enable a description of the way such elements are interconnected and the way they behave to provide the structure that is capable of performing a computation. The behavior of these elements is described as the sequence in which they change their state to enable the structure to perform the function. CHDLs in use include VHDL.
