Compiling error... not sure how to address the errors

Z

Zak Asaad

Hi, Im new here and fairly new to vhdl. Im designing a simple register bank.. My main issue is handling the integers in a case statement. I think I am missing something, but I don't know what. Im using ModelSim to code. Here is my code. You can paste it in a program and try to compile to see the error I am getting, but I am going to post the errors, in case you dont have the program. Thanks:

library ieee;
use ieee.std_logic_1164.all;
use ieee.std_logic_arith.all;

entity RegBank16x8 IS
port( clk : IN std_logic;
writeEnable : IN std_logic;

rdx_decoder_reg , rdy_decoder_reg : IN std_logic_vector (3 downto 0);
rx_reg_alu, ry_reg_mux : OUT std_logic_vector(7 downto 0);
wr_sp_e_reg_scratchpad : IN std_logic

);

end RegBank16x8;

architecture RegisterBank of RegBank16x8 is

I know it looks like a lot of errors but Im sure its a small issue that will get rid of most of the errors. Thanks for looking

Oh and the errors are all coming from the first two case statements utilizing the rxCount and ryCount variables inside the cases. The rest of the code after those is ok because the first two case statements are being added to working/compiling code.

I know it looks like a lot of errors but Im sure its a small issue that will get rid of most of the errors. Thanks for looking

Hi,
you have missed the very first error on line 44.
** Error: /afs/uncc.edu/usr/s/zasaad/linux/Desktop/RISC Project/RegisterBank16x8.vhd(44): near "variable": syntax error

Variables have to be declared inside a process.

Have a nice simulation

No error, but source of a lot problems. Using this library is in best case outdated since 10 years, as it is despite beeing named ieee no standard and might vary from tool to tool. Please use numeric_std instead.

This definition is wrong and causes most likely also most following errors.
1. put in in process
2. Integer range 0 to 16 (you sure not to use 0 to 15 instead?)


BTW is there a reason, why you avoid array for the regfile?
e.g:

type regfile_t is array 0 to 15 of std_ulogic_vector(7 downto 0)
use ieee.numeric_std.all;
signal my_regfile : regfile_t; -- initial signal assignments are dangerous!

if reset = activelevel then
my_regfile <= (0 => x"38", 1 => x"14",...)
elsif rising_edge(Clk) then
rx_reg_alu <= my_regfile(rx_count);
ry_reg_alu <= my_regfile(ry_count);
...
if write_enable='1' then
my_regfile(to_integer(unsigned(rdx_decoder_reg))) <= w_bk_aluop_reg;
end if;
..

In addition to previously noted problems, some additional suggestions:

Clocked processes' sensitivity lists should not contain signals other than the clock, and possibly an asynchronous reset, if applicable.

Use the rising_edge(clk) function instead of clk'event and clk = '1' to detect the clock edge; the function is standard, more robust, and more readable.

Integer counters don't rollover in simulation. Synthesis optimization will usually implement a rollover counter, but then the behavior of your circuitand your simulation will not agree. If a rollover is desired for integer counters, use "(count + 1) mod 16", where mod's RH argument is a power of two.

Resetting via initialization is hazardous, and non-portable. Implement a HWreset (either asynchronous or synchronous).

If your tools support the vhdl-2008 language version, you can use the ieee.numeric_std_unsigned package, which defines arithmetic operations on std_logic_vectors using an unsigned interpretation of the contents. It is similarto std_logic_arith in concept, but is an officially supported IEEE standard package (like numeric_std). It also defines to_integer() and to_slv() conversion functions.

I strongly agree with the use of arrays for the registers in an applicationsuch as this.

this actually help get rid of most of the errors. Thanks man. And also, I found a mistake in my signal declarations for my variable assignments. The "range" comes after the "integer". That was completely foolish on my part. Igot the whole thing working now. Thanks
