Verilog-HDL Reference: Verilog HDL: a guide to digital design and synthesis, Palnitkar, Samir Some of slides in this lecture are supported by Prof. An-Yeu Wu, E.E., NTU.
OUTLINE • Introduction • Basics of the Verilog Language • Gate-level modeling • Data-flow modeling • Behavioral modeling • Task and function
Verilog HDL (continue) • Invented by Philip Moorby in 1983/ 1984 at Gateway Design Automation • Enables specification of a digital system at a range of levels of abstraction: switches, gates, RTL, and higher • Initially developed in conjunction with the Verilog simulator
Verilog HDL • Verilog- based synthesis tool introduced by Synopsys in 1987 • Gateway Design Automation bought by Cadence in 1989 • Verilog placed in public domain to compete with VHDL – Open Verilog International (OVI) IEEE 1364 -1995 and • revised version IEEE 1364 -2001
What is Verilog HDL ? • Mixed level modeling • Behavioral • Algorithmic ( like high level language) • Register transfer (Synthesizable) • Structural • Gate (AND, OR ……) • Switch (PMOS, NOMS, JFET ……) • Single language for design and simulation • Built-in primitives and logic functions • User-defined primitives • Built-in data types • High-level programming constructs
Basic Conventions • Verilog is case sensitive – Keywords are in lowercase • Extra white space is ignored – But whitespace does separate tokens • Comments – One liners are // – Multiple lines /* */ – Comments may not be nested
OUTLINE • Introduction • Basics of the Verilog Language • Overview of Verilog Module • Identifier & Keywords • Logic Values • Data Types • Numbers & Negative Numbers • Gate-level modeling • Data-flow modeling • Behavioral modeling • Task and function
Overview of Verilog Module Test bench
Basic unit --Module modulemodule_name (port_name); port declaration data type declaration module functionality or structure Endmodule
D-FlipFlop module D_FF(q,d,clk,reset); output q; //port declaration input d,clk,reset; // data type declaration reg q; always @ (posedge reset or negedge clk) if (reset) q=1'b0; else q=d; endmodule
Instance • A module provides a template which you can create actual objects. • When a module is invoked, Verilog creates a unique object from the template • The process of creating a object from module template is called instantiation • The object is called instance
Instances module adder (in1,in2,cin,sum,cout); ....... endmodule module adder8(....) ; adder add1(a,b,1’b0,s1,c1) , add2(.in1(a2),.in2(b2),.cin(c1),.sum(s2) ,.cout(c2)) ; ..... endmodule Mapping port positions Mapping names
T-FlipFlop module T_FF(q,clk,reset); output q; input clk,reset; wire d; D_FF dff0(q,d,clk,reset); // create an instance not n1(d,q); endmodule
Identifier & Keywords • Identifier • User-provided names for Verilog objects in the descriptions • Legal characters are “a-z”, “A-Z”, “0-9”, “_”, and “$” • First character has to be a letter or an “_” • Example: Count, _R2D2, FIVE$ • Keywords • Predefined identifiers to define the language constructs • All keywords are defined in lower case • Cannot be used as identifiers • Example:initial, assign, module, always….
