szintetizálható

Szintetizálható is a Hungarian word that translates to "synthesizable" in English. It is most commonly used in the context of electronics and hardware description languages (HDLs) such as VHDL and Verilog. When a piece of HDL code is described as "szintetizálható," it means that the code can be automatically translated by a synthesis tool into a specific hardware implementation, such as a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) or an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC).

For code to be synthesizable, it must adhere to certain rules and constraints that synthesis tools can understand. This typically involves using constructs that map directly to physical hardware components like logic gates, flip-flops, and memory elements. High-level programming constructs, such as complex loops with dynamic bounds or certain types of floating-point operations, may not be synthesizable or might result in inefficient hardware.

The process of synthesis is a crucial step in the digital design flow. It allows designers to describe the desired functionality of a circuit in a higher-level language and then have specialized software automatically generate the corresponding hardware layout. This significantly speeds up the design process compared to manually creating the hardware schematics. Therefore, ensuring that HDL code is synthesizable is a fundamental requirement for anyone designing digital hardware. The term emphasizes the compatibility of the code with the automated transformation into physical silicon.
