How to use constants and Generic Map in VHDL
Creating modules is a great way to reuse code, but often you need the same module with smaller variations throughout your design. This is what generics and the generic map are for. It allows you to make certain parts of the module configurable at compile-time. Constants are used when we want to avoid typing the…
How to make an AXI FIFO in block RAM using the ready/valid handshake
I was a little annoyed by the peculiarities of the AXI interface the first time I had to create logic to interface an AXI module. Instead of the regular busy/valid, full/valid, or empty/valid control signals, the AXI interface uses two control signals named “ready” and “valid”. My frustration soon changed to awe. The AXI interface…
How to create a linked list in VHDL
The linked list is a dynamic data structure. A linked list can be used when the total number of elements is not known in advance. It grows and shrinks in memory, relative to the number of items it contains. Linked lists are most conveniently implemented using classes in an object-oriented programming language. VHDL has some…
How to use the most common VHDL type: std_logic
The most common type used in VHDL is the std_logic. Think of this type as a single bit, the digital information carried by a single physical wire. The std_logic gives us a more fine-grained control over the resources in our design than the integer type, which we have been using in the previous tutorials. Normally,…
Getting started with VUnit
VUnit is one of the most popular open-source VHDL verification frameworks available today. It combines a Python test suite runner with a dedicated VHDL library to automate your testbenches.
How to use a For loop in VHDL
In the previous tutorial we learned to create an infinite loop by using the loop statement. We also learned how the break out of a loop by using the exit statement. But what if we want the loop to iterate a certain number of times? The For-Loop is the easiest way to accomplish this. The…
Though those two codes are logically equivalent, the right one infers a transparent latch, it shouldn’t be used for synthesis.
I don’t think it does, but I’m not 100% sure what the synthesis tools do all the time.
This will infer a latch:
process(InSig) is begin if InSig = '0' then OutSig <= '1'; end if; end process;This shouldn’t create any latches:
process(InSig) is begin OutSig <= '0'; if InSig = '0' then OutSig <= '1'; end if; end process;A link to the question:
