Verilog HDL: Module

Verilog HDL
Verilog is a concurrent programming language unlike C, which is sequential in nature.

“initial” block - executes once at time 0. If there is more then one block, each execute concurrently
“always” block – executes continuously
Modeling Levels
Switch-Level, Gate-Level, Dataflow, Behavioral
Assignments
Blocking assignment: “=”– executed in order they appear in a block
Nonblocking assignment: “<=”– allow scheduling of assignments without blocking execution of
statements that follow in a sequential block
Continuous assignment “assign A = B;” – connects nets permanently.
Example 1:
#10 A = 1’b1;
counter = 0; //executed at 10 (after A assignment)
Example 2:
A <= #10 1’b1;
counter <= 0; // executed at time 0 (before A assignment)
Sequential Black – begin-end

Parallel Blocks – fork-join
Module definition:
module <module_name> (<module_terminal_list>); // semicolon required!!!

<module_terminal_definitions>
…
<functionality_of_module>
…
endmodule // no semicolon!!!
Gate-Level Modeling
Example 1: Full Adder
module FullAdder(X, Y, Cin, Cout, Sum);

input X, Y, Cin; // input terminal definitions
output Cout, Sum; // output terminal definitions
wire w1, w2, w3, w4; // internal net declarations
xor #(10) (w1, X, Y); // delay time of 10 units

xor #(10) xor2(Sum, w1, Cin); // with instance name
and #(10) (w2, X, Y);

and #(10) (w3, X, Cin);
and #(10) (w4, Y, Cin);
or #(10, 8)(Cout, w2, w3, w4); // 3 input or (rise time of 10, fall // time of
8)
endmodule
Example 2: 4-bit Full Adder
module Adder4(A, B, Cin, S, Cout);

input[3:0] A, B;
input Cin;
output[3:0] S;
output Cout;
wire c1, c2, c3;
// 4 instantiated 1-bit Full Adders

FullAdder fa0(A[0], B[0], Cin, C1, sum[0]);
FullAdder fa1(A[1], B[1], C1, C2, sum[1]);
FullAdder fa2(A[2], B[2], C2, C3, sum[2]);
FullAdder fa3(A[3], B[3], C3, Cout, sum[3]);
endmodule
Example 3: Stimulus Module for 4-bit Full Adder
module stimulus;
// declare variables
reg[3:0] A, B;
reg C_IN;
wire [3:0] SUM;
wire C_OUT;
//Instantiate 4-bit Full Adder

Adder4 FA1(A, B, C_IN, SUM, C_OUT);
initial
begin
$monitor($time, “A=%b B=%b Cin=%b, -> Sum = %b Cout=%b\n”, A, B, C_IN, SUM,
C_OUT);
end
// stimulate inputs
initial
begin // sequential block begins
A = 4’d0; B = 4’d0, C_IN = 1’b0; // 0 + 0 + 0
#10 A = 4’d2; B=4’d2; // 2 + 2 + 0
#10 A = 4’d5; B=4’d8; // 5 + 8 + 0
#10 C_IN = 1’b1 // 5 + 8 + 1
end
endmodule
Dataflow Modeling
Example 4: 4-to-1 Multiplexer
module mux4_to_1(in, out, sel);

input [3:0] in;
output out;
input [1:0]sel;
// continuous assignment with delay
assign #10 out = (~sel[1] & ~sel[0] & in[0]) |
(~sel[1] & sel[0] & in[1]) |
( sel[1] & ~sel[0] & in[2]) |
( sel[1] & sel[0] & in[3]);
endmodule
Example 5: 4-bit Full Adder with dataflow operators
module Adder4(A, B, Cin, S, Cout);

input[3:0] A, B;
input Cin;
output[3:0] S;
output Cout;
assign {Cout, S} = A + B + Cin; // concatenation

endmodule
Behavioral Modeling
All behavioral statements must be in initial or always blocks
Example 6: Clock Generator
module ClkGen;
reg clk;
initial
clk = 1’b0;
always
#10 clk = ~clk;
initial
#1000 $finish; //or $stop to end simulation
endmodule
Example 7: Behavioral 4-to-1 Multiplexer
module mux4_to_1(in, out, sel);

input [3:0] in;
output out;
input [1:0]sel;
reg out;
always @(sel or in)

begin
case(sel)
2’b00: out = in[0];
2’b01: out = in[1];
2’b10: out = in[2];
2’b11: out = in[3];
default: out = 1’bx;
endcase
end
endmodule
Example 8: D-Type Latch
module Latch(D, C, Q)
input D, C;
output Q;
reg Q; // output must preserve values
initial
Q = 1’b0;
always @(C or D)
begin
if(C == 1'b1)
#10 Q = D;
end
endmodule
Example 9: D-type Flip-Flop (with clear and set inputs)
module DFF(D, C, Q, QN, CLRN, SETN)

input D, C, CLRN, SETN;
output Q, QN;
reg Q, QN; // output must preserve values
initial
begin
Q = 1’b0;
QN = 1’b1;
end
always @(negedge CLRN or negedge SETN or posedge C)

begin
if(CLRN == 1’b0)
begin
#10 Q = 1’b0;
QN = 1’b1;
end
else if(SETN == 1’b0)
begin
#10 Q = 1’b1;
QN = 1’b0;
end
else
begin
#10 Q = D;
QN = ~D;
end
end

change and 2 for red to green for both directions.
