This has been discussed before, though I can't find the thread. The general=
pattern is that VHDL/Verilog is about 50/50 in the FPGA world, with a bias=
towards VHDL on the east side of N. America and Europe. The exception is C=
alifornia where Verilog dominates FPGA work. ASIC work is largely dominated=
by Verilog.
I'm not sure what the historical reasons for this pattern are. Generally in=
a given region one tends to be more dominant than the other due mostly to =
availability of workers and what relevant courses in neighbouring universit=
ies have used over the years.
Here in the Toronto area I have the impression it's mostly VHDL, except in =
the North East where there a fair bit of chip development and Verilog tends=
to be dominant.
