Variable Assignment

var1 := input1 and input2;

var1 = input1 & input2;

Signal Assignment

sig1 <= input1 and input2;

sig1 = input1 & input2;

Accessing a Value From a Port

variable temp;

temp = input1;

sc_logic temp;

temp = input1.read( ) ;

Equality Operator

=

example: if ( ENABLE = ‘1’) then

==

example: if ( ENABLE == SC_LOGIC_1);

Arithmetic Operations

use IEEE.std_logic_arith.all;

…

input1 = input1 + 1;

input1 = input1  - 1;

[no header file for arithmetic on logic types, must convert to unsigned integer type first]

sc_uint temp;

temp = input1.read( ) ;

temp = temp + 1;

temp = temp – 1;

input1 = temp;

If ... Else... Structure

if(E=’1’) then

    Q = D;

    Q_P = not D;

elsif(E=’0’)then

    Q_P = D;

    Q = not D;

else

    Q = D;

    Q_P = not D;

end if;

if(E=’1’)

{

    Q = D;

    Q_P = ~D;

}

elsif(E=’0’)

    Q_P = D;

    Q = ~D;

}

else

{   Q = D; Q_P = ~D;}

Switch/Case Statement

case ctrl is

  when “0” => f <= a;

  when “1” => f <= b;

end case;

[illegal to use logic type in switch statement – must use temp variable]

sc_uint<2> temp = ctrl.read();

switch(temp)

{

                case 0: f = a; break;

                case 1: f = b; break;
