Introduction to
VERILOG
Agenda:

• Why HDL’s & Evolution of HDL’s


• Typical design flow
• Importance of HDL’s
• Why Verilog HDL
• Trends in Verilog
• Basic Methodologies
• Modules and Instances
Why HDL’s ? & Evolution of HDL’s

Tech Evolution:
• SSI (Small Scale Integration)
• MSI (Medium Scale Integration)
• LSI (Large Scare Integration)
• VLSI (Very Large Scale Integration)

Software languages:
• FORTRAN, Pascal, and C
Importance of HDL’s

• Traditional schematic-based design is difficult


• No worry of fabrication technology (front end)
• Functional verification is easy, prevent bug early
• Gate-level schematics are almost incomprehensible for very
complex designs.
Why Verilog HDL

• Easy to learn, easy to use, and C-type syntax


• Different Levels of abstractions (switch, gates, RTL and
behavioral)
• Most synthesis tool supports
• libraries for post logic synthesis
• The Programming Language Interface (PLI)
Trends in Verilog

• HDL at an RTL
• Verilog Keeps on updates (Verilog-95, 2001,
2005,2009)
• Supports verification methodologies
• Assertion checking techniques
• Support for automatic stimulus creation (test bench)
Basic Methodologies
• Top-down method

• Bottom-up method
Typical design flow
Modules :

Modules:

module <module_name> (<module_terminal_list>);


...
<module internals>
...
...
endmodule

<module internals>
a. data flow
b. behavioral
c. structural
d. Mixed modeling
e. Gate level
f. Switch level
Component of simulation
