I am an intermediate to advanced verilog, vhdl hardware designer. I am
been designing circuits for sometime now. I need a textbook that will
help me better write hdl code that will synthesize better in terms of
area or speed. I need to learn the consequences of what certain
constructs in hdl in synthesis. Basically, I dont want books teaching
me vhdl or verilog. I need references to books that will help me become
a better engineer.

thanks

I've been referring to "Digital Systems Design with VHDL and Synthesis
- An Integrated Approach" by K.C.Chang available from IEEE. It shows
how different coding styles and statements will synthesize..

The book was published in 1999 so my guess is that synthesizers have
developed much since then, but from my experience the contents in the
books are still relevant.

hi....I am also a beginner in Verilog and I found 'Digital Design' by
Morris Mano to be useful....it has both the Findamantals of Digital
Electronics and also the Verilog from the scratch..........you can go
for it. Also it comes with the Software for Verilog.
