Career

Computer Engineer

I am intrested in computer engineering because I love both coding and designing circuits. These two intrests of mine lead me to getting my first FPGA development board. FPGA boards allow you to design digital circuits with hardware descriptor languages (HDL) such as Verilog and VHDL. RTL design engineers are computer engineers who specialize in coding hardware descriptors.

Description

RTL design engineers design synchronous circuits using registers and combonational logic. They use hardware descriptors to design these synchronous circuits.

Average Salary

The salary for RTL Design Engineers varys depending on factors such as experience, education, and knowlege of the specific subfield you are designing for. However, the average salary is around $107,000.
