|
Extend -- Extention of nets
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{Synopsys}
|
|
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
extendA = Signal ( "extend_a", 32 )
|
|
|
|
extendA <= netA.Extend ( 32, 'zero' )
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{Description}
|
|
|
|
This method creates a net which is an extension of the net which it is applied to. The number given as parameter has to be greater than the arity of the net.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{Parameters}
|
|
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item \verb-n- : the number which is the arity of the net
|
|
\item \verb-type- : the type of the extension
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item 'zero' : the extension nets are set to zero
|
|
\item 'one' : the extension nets are set to one
|
|
\item 'signed' : the extension nets are set thanks to the value of the msb bit
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{Example}
|
|
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
temp = Signal ( "temp", 5 )
|
|
tempExt = Signal ( "temp_ext", 8 )
|
|
|
|
tempExt <= temp.Extand ( 8, 'one' )
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
|
|
\indent The arity of the net \verb-tempExt- is 8 and 3 MSB of the net are "1".
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{Errors}
|
|
|
|
Some errors may occur :
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item \verb-[Stratus ERROR] Extend :-\\\verb-the net can not be extended to n bits, it's arity is already m.-\\The number one wants must be greater than the arity of the net. Otherwise, the net can not be extended.
|
|
\end{itemize}
