This document provides information about Verilog, a hardware description language used for designing digital circuits. It discusses what Verilog is, why it is used, how it was developed, its structure and syntax. Key points covered include:
- Verilog is a hardware description language used for designing digital circuits at different levels of abstraction.
- It allows designers to describe designs behaviorally or at lower levels like gate and switch levels.
- Verilog provides a software platform for designers to express their designs using behavioral constructs before being synthesized into hardware.
- It was introduced in 1985 and became an open standard in 1990 to promote broader adoption.
- The document reviews Verilog syntax, variables, data types,
Verilog HDL Basics covers the basics of Verilog including data types, modules, simulation, operators, assignments, and flow control. It discusses key concepts like event-driven simulation, blocking vs non-blocking assignments, continuous assignments, initial and always blocks, and control structures like if, case, for loops. The document provides examples to illustrate Verilog syntax and how it is used to model hardware at the register transfer level.
This document provides an introduction to Verilog HDL including:
- An overview of Verilog keywords, data types, abstraction levels, and design methodology.
- Details on the history of Verilog including its development over time and transitions to newer standards.
- Explanations of key Verilog concepts like modules, ports, instantiation, stimuli, and lexical conventions.
Modules are the basic building blocks, ports define module interfaces, and instantiation replicates modules. Stimuli provide test inputs and lexical conventions cover syntax rules.
The document discusses binary multipliers. It describes how a combinational multiplier circuit performs multiplication by multiplying the multiplicand by each bit of the multiplier starting from the least significant bit. Each multiplication forms a partial product that is shifted left. The final product is the sum of the partial products. It then provides examples of 2-bit by 2-bit and 4-bit by 3-bit binary multipliers, showing how the partial products are generated using AND gates and added using half adders or full adders.
The document provides an introduction to VHDL including its origins, domains of description, abstraction levels, modeling styles, and examples of behavioral and structural descriptions. It discusses key VHDL concepts such as entities, architectures, concurrency, hierarchy, and modeling at different levels of abstraction using both behavioral and structural descriptions. Examples include behavioral descriptions of basic components like an AND gate, full adder, D flip-flop, and 4-to-1 multiplexer as well as structural descriptions of a 4-bit adder and 4-bit comparator.
Adder circuits are basic building blocks used in digital processors to perform arithmetic operations. There are different types of adder circuits that provide tradeoffs between speed and complexity. The ripple carry adder is the simplest but has the longest delay, while lookahead adders are more complex but faster by calculating carry signals earlier in parallel.
This document discusses SystemVerilog assertions (SVA). It introduces SVA and explains that assertions are used to document design functionality, check design intent is met, and determine if verification tested the design. Assertions can be specified by the design or verification engineer. The document outlines the key building blocks of SVA like sequences, properties, and assertions. It provides examples of different types of assertions and how they are used. Key concepts discussed include implication, timing windows, edge detection, and repetition operators.
Verilog HDL is used to model digital circuits at different levels of abstraction. There are several modeling styles in Verilog including structural, dataflow, behavioral, and mixed modeling. Structural modeling connects instances of modules through nets, dataflow uses continuous assignments, and behavioral describes algorithms without hardware details. Modules have interfaces with input, output, and inout ports that connect to external signals. Simulation verifies designs operate as required and uses the `timescale directive to specify time units for delays.
Tasks and functions allow designers to abstract commonly used Verilog code into reusable routines. Tasks can contain timing constructs and pass multiple values through input, output, and inout arguments. Functions must not contain timing constructs and return a single value. Tasks are similar to subroutines while functions are similar to functions in other languages like FORTRAN. Automatic tasks make tasks re-entrant to avoid issues with concurrent calls operating on shared variables.
Hardware description languages (HDLs) allow designers to describe digital systems at different levels of abstraction in a textual format. The two most commonly used HDLs are Verilog and VHDL. Verilog is commonly used in the US, while VHDL is more popular in Europe. HDLs enable simulation of designs before fabrication to verify functionality. Digital designs can be modeled at the gate level, data flow level, or behavioral level in Verilog. Verilog code consists of a design module and test bench module to stimulate inputs and observe outputs.

This document provides a tutorial on Verilog HDL (Hardware Description Language). It discusses that HDLs like Verilog and VHDL are used to describe hardware using code. Verilog allows designers to describe designs at different levels of abstraction. Digital systems are highly complex, and Verilog provides a software platform for designers to express their designs with behavioral constructs. A Verilog program can be converted to a description used to manufacture chips like VLSI. The document then covers various Verilog topics like modules, ports, data types, always blocks, structural modeling, dataflow modeling, and behavioral modeling.
Verilog HDL is a hardware description language used to design and document electronic systems. Verilog HDL allows designers to design at various levels of abstraction. It is the most widely used HDL with a user community of more than 50,000 active designers.
A brief history
Verilog HDL originated at Automated Integrated Design Systems (later renamed as Gateway Design Automation) in 1985. The company was privately held at that time by Dr. Prabhu Goel, the inventor of the PODEM test generation algorithm. Verilog HDL was designed by Phil Moorby, who was later to become the Chief Designer for Verilog-XL and the first Corporate Fellow at Cadence Design Systems. Gateway Design Automation grew rapidly with the success of Verilog-XL and was finally acquired by Cadence Design Systems, San Jose, CA in 1989.
Verilog was invented as simulation language. Use of Verilog for synthesis was a complete afterthought. Rumors abound that there were merger discussions between Gateway and Synopsys in the early days, where neither gave the other much chance of success..
In the late 1980's it seemed evident that designers were going to be moving away from proprietary languages like n dot, HiLo and Verilog towards the US Depatment of Defense standard H.D.L., known as the VHSIC Hardware Description Language. VHSIC it self stands for "Very High Speen Intergrated Circuit" BTW).
Perhaps due to such market pressure, Cadence Design Systems decided to open the Verilog language to the public in 1990, and thus OVI (Open Verilog International) was born. Until that time, Verilog HDL was a proprietary language, being the property of Cadence Design Systems. When OVI was formed in 1991, a number of small companies began working on Verilog simulators, including Chronologic Simulation, Frontline Design Automation, and others. The first of these came to market in 1992, and now there are mature Verilog simulators available from many sources.
As a result, the Verilog market has grown substantially. The market for Verilog related tools in 1994 was well over $75,000,000, making it the most commercially significant hardware description language on the market.
An IEEE working group was established in 1993 under the Design Automation Sub-Committee to produce the IEEE Verilog standard 1364. Verilog became IEEE Standard 1364 in 1995.
As an international standard, the Verilog market continued to grow. In 1998 the market for Verilog simulators alone was well over $150,000,000; continuing its dominance.
The IEEE working group released a revised standard in March of 2002, known as IEEE 1364-2001. Significant publication errors marred this release, and a revised version was released in 2003, known as IEEE 1364-2001 Revision C.
The document discusses a presentation on VLSI design given by students after an industrial training. It provides an introduction to VLSI, describes software used in VLSI design like DSCH, Xilinx, Altera and Microwind. It explains VLSI design hierarchy, basic VHDL code structure and Verilog code structure. It also discusses programmable logic device and the downloading process on a PLD using Xilinx. The conclusion states that VLSI design has significant scope as a career.
An embedded system is a microprocessor-based system designed to perform specific tasks and embedded as a component in a larger system. Common application areas include automotive electronics, aircraft electronics, trains, and telecommunications. The key design challenge is to optimize numerous design metrics like unit cost, size, performance, power consumption, and flexibility simultaneously. Common integrated circuit technologies used include full-custom/VLSI, semi-custom ASICs, and programmable logic devices like FPGAs. VHDL and Verilog are hardware description languages used to model and simulate the system at different levels of abstraction from transistors to functional behavior.

The document provides an overview of the ASIC design methodology and introduces the tools used for HDL design capture and synthesis. It summarizes the key steps as:
1. HDL design capture where the design is modeled at the behavioral and RTL levels and verified through pre-synthesis simulation.
2. HDL design synthesis where the RTL is synthesized to a gate-level netlist that is optimized for area and timing and verified through post-synthesis simulation.
3. Post-synthesis timing analysis where tools like Cadence Pearl are used to check that the timing requirements are met in the synthesized gate-level design.

2. Synthesizable Verilog code
In VLSI design we are mostly concerned with synthesizable verilog. For synthesizing your finite
state machine using a tool such as Synopsys Design Compiler certain rules have to be followed.
(please read those rules carefully; if these rules are not followed it will cause big problems when
using Synopsys).
Verilog Restrictions for Synthesis
¨ Not all HDL constructs are synthesizable.
¨ Simulatable designs are not necessarily synthesizable.
¨ Synthesizable constructs are tool dependent
¨ Use only few HDL commands
case
if else
concurrent and sequential statements
¨ Keep the intended circuit architecture in mind during design description.
¨ Using C-like programming style increases the silicon area dramatically.
¨ Type conversions and test stimuli definitions cannot be synthesized.
¨ Make extensive use of comments.
¨ Use headers for all modules, functions
¨ Explain the operating modes of the modules
¨ Explain all input and output signals
¨ Compiler directives reside within comments
¨ Smallest HDL code does not imply smallest silicon.
¨ Describe the architecture clearly.
¨ Cover all possible states within a if-else or case statement.
¨ Do not use nested loops for circuit description
¨ Do not define functions when instantiating parts within one entity.
Here is an excellent link to a site which gives information about Verilog for synthesis:

Traffic Light Example
NOTE: The library used in VLSI class only contains flip-flop. In order to only use flip-flop in
the design, please only use \"posedge clock\" in the always block. Put other signals in the block,
will cause the synthesizer pick LATCH or other sequential circuits for your design.

Value Stream Mapping Worskshops for Intelligent Continuous SecurityMarc Hornbeek
This presentation provides detailed guidance and tools for conducting Current State and Future State Value Stream Mapping workshops for Intelligent Continuous Security.
Fluid mechanics is the branch of physics concerned with the mechanics of fluids (liquids, gases, and plasmas) and the forces on them. Originally applied to water (hydromechanics), it found applications in a wide range of disciplines, including mechanical, aerospace, civil, chemical, and biomedical engineering, as well as geophysics, oceanography, meteorology, astrophysics, and biology.
It can be divided into fluid statics, the study of various fluids at rest, and fluid dynamics.
Fluid statics, also known as hydrostatics, is the study of fluids at rest, specifically when there's no relative motion between fluid particles. It focuses on the conditions under which fluids are in stable equilibrium and doesn't involve fluid motion.
Fluid kinematics is the branch of fluid mechanics that focuses on describing and analyzing the motion of fluids, such as liquids and gases, without considering the forces that cause the motion. It deals with the geometrical and temporal aspects of fluid flow, including velocity and acceleration. Fluid dynamics, on the other hand, considers the forces acting on the fluid.
Fluid dynamics is the study of the effect of forces on fluid motion. It is a branch of continuum mechanics, a subject which models matter without using the information that it is made out of atoms; that is, it models matter from a macroscopic viewpoint rather than from microscopic.
Fluid mechanics, especially fluid dynamics, is an active field of research, typically mathematically complex. Many problems are partly or wholly unsolved and are best addressed by numerical methods, typically using computers. A modern discipline, called computational fluid dynamics (CFD), is devoted to this approach. Particle image velocimetry, an experimental method for visualizing and analyzing fluid flow, also takes advantage of the highly visual nature of fluid flow.
Fundamentally, every fluid mechanical system is assumed to obey the basic laws :
Conservation of mass
Conservation of energy
Conservation of momentum
The continuum assumption
For example, the assumption that mass is conserved means that for any fixed control volume (for example, a spherical volume)—enclosed by a control surface—the rate of change of the mass contained in that volume is equal to the rate at which mass is passing through the surface from outside to inside, minus the rate at which mass is passing from inside to outside. This can be expressed as an equation in integral form over the control volume.
The continuum assumption is an idealization of continuum mechanics under which fluids can be treated as continuous, even though, on a microscopic scale, they are composed of molecules. Under the continuum assumption, macroscopic (observed/measurable) properties such as density, pressure, temperature, and bulk velocity are taken to be well-defined at "infinitesimal" volume elements—small in comparison to the characteristic length scale of the system, but large in comparison to molecular length scale

18. 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
23. 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….
