FSM(5) VHDL subset of ASIM/LIP6/CAO-VLSI lab. FSM(5) NAME fsm - Alliance VHDL Finite State Machine description subset. DESCRIPTION This document describes the Alliance VHDL subset for Finite State Machine description. This FSM subset is neither accepted by the logic simulator asimut(1), nor the formal prover proof(1). This VHDL subset is defined to enable classical MOORE and MEALEY synchro- nous finite state machine description as well as stack FSM description (see syf(1) for further information about this kind of FSM). A FSM description is made of two and only two processes. Connectors and signals can only be of in, out, and two user defined enumerated types. Vectors of in and out types are also allowed. FSM's states and stack control signals must be declared as enumerated type. For the scan-path, three more signals are required : - scan_test: in bit - scan_in: in bit - scan_out: out bit For a ROM implementation, the vdd and vss signals must be explicitly de- clared as : - rom_vdd : in bit - rom_vss : in bit These signals, declared in the interface, are not used or assigned in the FSM description. The '-P' option of syf(1) allows scan-path implementation. Pragmas : A pragma is a comment that gives necessary information to the syn- thesis and formal proof tools. Three pragmas are used, their generic names are : - CLOCK : External clock signal name. - CURRENT_STATE : Current State name. - NEXT_STATE : Next State name. Ten other pragmas are optional. Three pragmas are required only for scan-path implementation. - SCAN_TEST : Enable test mode (scan-path). - SCAN_IN : scan-path input. - SCAN_OUT : scan-path output. Five others are used only in a STACK FSM. - RETURN_STATE : Return State name. - CONTROL : Stack Control signal name. - POP : POP operation on the stack. - PUSH : PUSH operation on the stack. - NOP : NOP operation on the stack. The last ones for ROM implementation - ROM_VDD : Name of the vdd signal of the ROM. - ROM_VSS :Name of the vss signal of the ROM. Two different processes are used : The first process, called state process, allows to describe state transition and outputs generation. It is not con- trolled by the clock. The second process is controlled by the clock and describes the state register and stack registers modifications. State process sensitivity list contains inputs and CURRENT_STATE, it means that the state process is activated when the CURRENT_STATE or an input sig- nal changes. A case statement is used to describe, for each state, the next state and outputs. The second process sensitivity list contains the clock signal, so this process is enabled whenever clock changes. Both Level sensitive latches, and edge triggered flip flops can be used for state registers and stack im- plementation.

It is also pos- sible to incorporate concurrent statements using VBE(5) VHDL coding style.
