Implementation
Schematic
A graphical representation of a circuit showing components and their interconnections.
Detailed Explanation
Schematics use symbols for gates, flip-flops, and other components, with lines representing wires. They provide visual understanding of circuit topology. Hierarchical schematics use blocks representing subcircuits.
In modern design, schematics are generated from RTL (post-synthesis schematic viewers) rather than drawn as primary input. Custom analog/mixed-signal circuits may still use schematic entry.
