1 I. Blocking vs. Nonblocking Assignments Verilog supports two types of assignments within always blocks, with subtly different behaviors. Blocking assignment: evaluation and assignment are immediate (a or b or c) begin x = a b; y = a ^ b ^ c; z = b & ~c; end. Evaluate a b, assign result to x 2. Evaluate a^b^c, assign result to y 3. Evaluate b&(~c), assign result to z Nonblocking assignment: all assignments deferred until all right-hand sides have been evaluated (end of simulation timestep) (a or b or c) begin x <= a b; y <= a ^ b ^ c; z <= b & ~c; end. Evaluate a b but defer assignment of x 2. Evaluate a^b^c but defer assignment of y 3. Evaluate b&(~c) but defer assignment of z 4. Assign x, y, and z with their new values Sometimes, as above, both produce the same result. Sometimes, not! 6. Fall 27 Lecture 6, Slide
2 Why two ways of assigning values? Conceptual need for two kinds of assignment (in always blocks): a b a b c x y Blocking: Evaluation and assignment are immediate Non-Blocking: Assignment is postponed until all r.h.s. evaluations are done When to use: ( only in always blocks! ) a = b b = a a <= b b <= a Sequential Circuits x = a & b y = x c x <= a & b y <= x c Combinational Circuits 6. Fall 27 Lecture 6, Slide 2
3 Assignment Styles for Sequential Logic Flip-Flop Based igital elay Line clk in q q2 out Will nonblocking and blocking assignments both produce the desired result? module nonblocking(in, clk, out); input in, clk; output out; reg q, q2, out; (posedge clk) begin q <= in; q2 <= q; out <= q2; end endmodule module blocking(in, clk, out); input in, clk; output out; reg q, q2, out; (posedge clk) begin q = in; q2 = q; out = q2; end endmodule 6. Fall 27 Lecture 6, Slide 3
4 Use Nonblocking for Sequential Logic (posedge clk) begin q <= in; q2 <= q; out <= q2; end At each rising clock edge, q, q2, and out simultaneously receive the old values of in, q, and q2. (posedge clk) begin q = in; q2 = q; out = q2; end At each rising clock edge, q = in. After that, q2 = q = in; After that, out = q2 = q = in; Finally out = in. in q q2 out in q q2 out clk clk Blocking assignments do not reflect the intrinsic behavior of multi-stage sequential logic Guideline: use nonblocking assignments for sequential always blocks 6. Fall 27 Lecture 6, Slide 4
5 Use Blocking for Combinational Logic Blocking Behavior a b c x y (Given) Initial Condition a changes; always block triggered x = a & b; y = x c; (a or b or c) begin x = a & b; y = x c; end a b c x y Nonblocking Behavior a b c x y eferred (Given) Initial Condition a changes; always block triggered x <= a & b; x<= y <= x c; x<=, y<= Assignment completion (a or b or c) begin x <= a & b; y <= x c; end Nonblocking assignments do not reflect the intrinsic behavior of multi-stage combinational logic While nonblocking assignments can be hacked to simulate correctly (expand the sensitivity list), it s not elegant Guideline: use blocking assignments for combinational always blocks 6. Fall 27 Lecture 6, Slide 5
6 II. Single-clock Synchronous Circuits We ll use Flip Flops and Registers groups of FFs sharing a clock input in a highly constrained way to build digital systems. Single-clock Synchronous iscipline: No combinational cycles Single clock signal shared among all clocked devices Only care about value of combinational circuits just before rising edge of clock Period greater than every combinational delay Change saved state after noiseinducing logic transitions have stopped! 6. Fall 27 Lecture 6, Slide 6
7 Clocked circuit for on/off button module onoff(clk,button,light); input clk,button; output light; reg light; (posedge clk) begin if (button) light <= ~light; end endmodule oes this work with a Mhz? BUTTON LE LIGHT SINGLE GLOBAL CLOCK LOA-ENABLE REGISTER 6. Fall 27 Lecture 6, Slide 7
8 Asynchronous Inputs in Sequential Systems What about external signals? Clock Sequential System Can t guarantee setup and hold times will be met! When an asynchronous signal causes a setup/hold violation... Clock I II III? Transition is missed on first clock cycle, but caught on next clock cycle. Transition is caught on first clock cycle. Output is metastable for an indeterminate amount of time. : Which cases are problematic? 6. Fall 27 Lecture 6, Slide 8
9 Asynchronous Inputs in Sequential Systems All of them can be, if more than one happens simultaneously within the same circuit. Idea: ensure that external signals directly feed exactly one flip-flop Sequential System Async Input Clocked Synchronous System Clock Clock Clock This prevents the possibility of I and II occurring in different places in the circuit, but what about metastability? 6. Fall 27 Lecture 6, Slide 9
10 Handling Metastability Preventing metastability turns out to be an impossible problem High gain of digital devices makes it likely that metastable conditions will resolve themselves quickly Solution to metastability: allow time for signals to stabilize Can be metastable right after sampling Very unlikely to be metastable for > clock cycle Extremely unlikely to be metastable for >2 clock cycle Complicated Sequential Logic System Clock How many registers are necessary? epends on many design parameters(clock speed, device speeds, ) In 6., a pair of synchronization registers is sufficient 6. Fall 27 Lecture 6, Slide
11 III. Finite State Machines Finite State Machines (FSMs) are a useful abstraction for sequential circuits with centralized states of operation At each clock edge, combinational logic computes outputs and next state as a function of inputs and present state inputs + present state n Combinational Logic outputs + next state n Flip- Flops 6. Fall 27 Lecture 6, Slide
12 State transition diagram Example : Light Switch BUTTON= BUTTON= LIGHT = LIGHT = BUTTON= BUTTON= Logic diagram Combinational logic BUTTON LIGHT Register 6. Fall 27 Lecture 6, Slide 2
13 Example 2: 4-bit Counter Logic diagram count Verilog # 4-bit counter module counter(clk, count); input clk; output [3:] count; reg [3:] count; clk (posedge clk) begin count <= count+; end endmodule 6. Fall 27 Lecture 6, Slide 3
14 Example 2: 4-bit Counter Logic diagram count Verilog enb # 4-bit counter with enable module counter(clk,enb,count); input clk,enb; output [3:] count; reg [3:] count; clk Could I use the following instead? if (enb) count <= count+; (posedge clk) begin count <= enb? count+ : count; end endmodule 6. Fall 27 Lecture 6, Slide 4
15 Example 2: 4-bit Counter Logic diagram count Verilog enb clr clk # 4-bit counter with enable and synchronous clear module counter(clk,enb,clr,count); input clk,enb,clr; output [3:] count; reg [3:] count; Isn t this a lot like Exercise in Lab 2? (posedge clk) begin count <= clr? 4 b : (enb? count+ : count); end endmodule 6. Fall 27 Lecture 6, Slide 5
16 Two Types of FSMs Moore and Mealy FSMs : different output generation Moore FSM: inputs x...x n Comb. Logic next state S + n Flip- Flops n Comb. Logic outputs y k = f k (S) present state S Mealy FSM: inputs x...x n Comb. Logic direct combinational path! S + n Flip- Flops n Comb. Logic outputs y k = f k (S, x...x n ) S 6. Fall 27 Lecture 6, Slide 6
17 esign Example: Level-to-Pulse A level-to-pulse converter produces a single-cycle pulse each time its input goes high. It s a synchronous rising-edge detector. Sample uses: Buttons and switches pressed by humans for arbitrary periods of time Single-cycle enable signals for counters Whenever input L goes from low to high... L Level to Pulse Converter P...output P produces a single pulse, one clock period wide. 6. Fall 27 Lecture 6, Slide 7
18 Step : State Transition iagram Block diagram of desired system: Synchronizer Edge etector unsynchronized user input L Level to Pulse FSM P State transition diagram is a useful FSM representation and design aid: if L= at the clock edge, then jump to state. L= L= Binary values of states L= if L= at the clock edge, then stay in state. Low input, Waiting for rise P = L= Edge etected! P = L= High input, Waiting for fall P = L= This is the output that results from this state. (Moore or Mealy?) 6. Fall 27 Lecture 6, Slide 8
19 Step 2: Logic erivation Transition diagram is readily converted to a state transition table (just a truth table) L= Low input, Waiting for rise P = L= L= L= Edge etected! P = High input, Waiting for fall P = L= L= Curren t State Combinational logic may be derived using Karnaugh maps S S In L Next State S + S + Out P S S L S S L for S + : X X for S + : X X L Comb. Logic S + = LS S + = L S + n Flip- Flops S n Comb. Logic P = S S P S S for P: X 6. Fall 27 Lecture 6, Slide 9
20 Moore Level-to-Pulse Converter inputs x...x n Comb. Logic next state S + n Flip- Flops n Comb. Logic outputs y k = f k (S) S + = LS S + = L present state S P = S S Moore FSM circuit implementation of level-to-pulse converter: L S + S P S + S 6. Fall 27 Lecture 6, Slide 2
21 esign of a Mealy Level-to-Pulse Comb. Logic direct combinational path! S + n Flip- Flops S Since outputs are determined by state and inputs, Mealy FSMs may need fewer states than Moore FSM implementations n Comb. Logic. When L= and S=, this output is asserted immediately and until the state transition occurs (or L changes). L= P= Input is low L= P= L= P= Input is high L= P= L P Clock State 2 Output transitions immediately. State transitions at the clock edge. 2. While in state S= and as long as L remains at, this output is asserted. 6. Fall 27 Lecture 6, Slide 2
22 Mealy Level-to-Pulse Converter L= P= Input is low L= P= L= P= Input is high L= P= Pres. State S In L Next State S + Out P Mealy FSM circuit implementation of level-to-pulse converter: P L S + S S FSM s state simply remembers the previous value of L Circuit benefits from the Mealy FSM s implicit singlecycle assertion of outputs during state transitions 6. Fall 27 Lecture 6, Slide 22
23 Moore/Mealy Trade-Offs How are they different? Moore: outputs = f( state ) only Mealy outputs = f( state and input ) Mealy outputs generally occur one cycle earlier than a Moore: Moore: delayed assertion of P L P Clock State[] Mealy: immediate assertion of P L P Clock State Compared to a Moore FSM, a Mealy FSM might... Be more difficult to conceptualize and design Have fewer states 6. Fall 27 Lecture 6, Slide 23
