SystemVerilog Arrays, Flexible and Synthesizable

by

In my last article on plain old Verilog Arrays, I discussed their very limited feature set. In comparison, SystemVerilog arrays have greatly expanded capabilities both for writing synthesizable RTL, and for writing non-synthesizable test benches. In this article, we’ll take a look at the synthesizable features of SystemVerilog Arrays we can use when writing design … Read more

Verilog arrays are quite simple; the Verilog-2005 standard has only 2 pages describing arrays, a stark contrast from SystemVerilog-2012 which has 20+ pages on arrays. Having a good understanding of what array features are available in plain Verilog will help understand the motivation and improvements … Read more
