1 Generate Statements Concurrent statements can be conditionally selected or replicated during the elaboration phase using the generate statement. There are two forms of the generate statement. 1. Using the for-generahon scheme, concurrent statements can be replicated a predetermined number of times. 2. With the if-generation scheme, concurrent statements can be conditionally selected for execution. The generate statement is interpreted during elaboration, and therefore, has no simulation semantics associated with it. It resembles a macro expansion. The generate statement provides for a compact description of regular structures such as memories, registers, and counters. The format of a generate statement using the for-generation scheme is generate-label: for generale-identifierin discrete-range generate concurrent-statements end generate [ generate-label]; The values in the discrete range must be globally static, that is, they must be computable at elaboration time. During elaboration, the set of concurrent statements are replicated once for each value in the discrete range. These statements can also use the generate identifier in their expressions and its value would be substituted during elaboration for each replication. There is an implicit declaration for the generate identifier within the generate statement, and therefore, no declaration for this identifier is required. The type of the identifier is defined by the discrete range. Consider the following representation of a 4-bit full-adder, shown in Fig., using the generate statement. entity FULL_ADD4 is port (A, B: in BIT_VECTOR(3 downto 0); CIN: in BIT; SUM: out BIT_VECTOR(3 downto 0); COUT: out BIT);
2 end FULL_ADD4: architecture FOR_GENERATE of FULL_ADD4 is component FULL_ADDER port (A, B, C: in BIT; COUT, SUM: out BIT); end component; signal CAR: BIT_VECTOR(4 downto 0); CAR(0) <= CIN; GK: for K in 3 downto 0 generate FA: FULL_ADDER port map (CAR(K), A(K), B(K), CAR(K+1),SUM(K)); end generate GK; COUT <= CAR(4); end FOR_GENERATE; After elaboration, the generate statement is expanded to FA(3): FULL_ADDER port map (CAR(3), A(3), B(3), CAR(4), SUM(3)); FA(2): FULL_ADDER port map (CAR(2), A(2), B(2), CAR(3), SUM(2)); FA(1): FULL_ADDER port map (CAR(1), A(1), B(1), CAR(2), SUM(1)); FA(0): FULL_ADDER port map (CAR(0), A(0), B(0), CAR(1), SUM(0)); The second form of the generate statement uses the if-generation scheme. The format for this type of generate statement is genarate-label: IF expression generate concurrent-statements end generate [ generete-label ] ; The if-generate statement allows for conditional selection of concurrent statements based on the value of an expression. This expression must be a globally static expression, that is, the value must be computable at elaboration time. Here is an example of a 4-bit counter, shown in Fig. 1.2, that is modeled using the if-generate statement.
3 Block Statement Formal Definition The block statement is a representation of design or hierarchy section, used for partitioning architecture into self-contained parts. Simplified Syntax block_label : block (optional_guard_condition) declarations concurrent statements end block block_label; Description
4 The block statement is a way of grouping concurrent statements in an architecture. There are two main purposes for using blocks: to improve readability of the specification and to disable some signals by using the guard expression (see guard for details). The main purpose of block statement is organisational only - introduction of a block does not directly affect the execution of a simulation model. For example, both the upper and lower sections of code in Example 1 will generate the same simulation results. Each block must be assigned a label placed just before the block reserved word. The same label may be optionally repeated at the end of the block, right after the end blockreserved words. A block statement can be preceded by two optional parts: a header and a declarative part. The latter allows to introduce declarations of subprograms, types, subtypes, constants, signals, shared variables, files, aliases, components, attributes, configurations, disconnections, use clauses and groups (i.e. any of the declarations possible for an architecture). All declarations specified here are local to the block and are not visible outside it. A block header may contain port and generic declarations (like in an entity), as well as so called port map and generic map declarations. The purpose of port map and generic mapstatements is to map signals and other objects declared outside of the block into the ports and generic parameters that have been declared inside of the block, respectively. This construct, however, has only a small practical importance. The Example 2 illustrates typical block declarations. If an optional guard condition is specified at the ning of the block then this block becomes a guarded block. See guard for details. The statements part may contain any concurrent constructs allowed in an architecture. In particular, other block statements can be used here. This way, a kind of hierarchical structure can be introduced into a single architecture body. Example 1 A1: OUT1 <= '1' after 5 ns; LEVEL1 : block A2: OUT2 <= '1' after 5 ns; A3: OUT3 <= '0' after 4 ns; end block LEVEL1; A1: OUT1 <= '1' after 5 ns; A2: OUT2 <= '1' after 5 ns; A3: OUT3 <= '0' after 4 ns; Both pieces of code above will behave in exactly the same way during simulation - block construct only separates part of the code without adding any functionality. Example 2 entity X_GATE is generic (LongTime : Time; ShortTime : Time); port (P1, P2, P3 : inout BIT);
5 end X_GATE; architecture STRUCTURE of X_GATE is -- global declarations of signal: signal A, B : BIT; LEVEL1 : block -- local declaration of generic parameters generic (GB1, GB2 : Time); -- local binding of generic parameters generic map (GB1 => LongTime, GB2 => ShortTime); -- local declaration of ports port (PB1: in BIT; PB2 : inout BIT ); -- local binding of ports and signals port map (PB1 => P1, PB2 => B); -- local declarations: constant Delay : Time := 1 ms; signal S1 : BIT; S1 <= PB1 after Delay; PB2 <= S1 after GB1, P1 after GB2; end block LEVEL1; end architecture STRUCTURE; The signals PB1 and PB2 have here the same values as P1 and B (in port map statement), respectively, and the generics GB1 and GB2 (see generic map statement) have the same values as LongTime and ShortTime, respectively. However, such assignment is redundant because a block may use any declarations of an entity, including generics and ports. TheExample 2 is presented here only for illustration purpose of the block syntax. Important Notes Guarded blocks are generally not synthesizeable. Unguarded blocks are usually ignored by synthesis tools. It is strongly recommended NOT to use blocks in non-vital designs - the package Std_logic_1164 supports mechanisms and multiple value logic which make the reserved words bus, disconnect, guarded and register unnecessary. Also, instead of guarded blocks for modelling sequential behaviour it is recommended to used clocked processes. VITAL specifications require the use of blocks. VHDL supports a more powerful mechanism of design partitioning which is called component instantiation. Component instantiation allows connecting a component reference in one entity with its declaration in another entity.
