TL;DR: The Homework 2 Verilog file has been updated but you don't need to copy it if you have the old one. The Homework 2 Handout has also been updated, explaining the cw_itof issues and benefiting from some more proofreading. In class today I suggested that the cw_itof module we used to compare to our own module tiger_itof might have had higher cost because cw_itof instantiated a left-justify module that was only needed for testbench compabitility. The synthesis program should have optimized out the left-justify module, and it did. Nevertheless the hw02.v now hides the left-justify module so we can be absolutely sure the cw_itof cost reflects only the Chipware module. |

Homework 1 assigned, due Monday, 14 September 2026. This is a computer assignment. Though in principle it can be solved on paper, solving it in the lab will let you know immediately about errors such as port sizes, which are really easy to make. |

Class account credentials were E-mailed 10:47 this morning. Due to me skipping a step the accounts were broken until 12:41 this morning. The class accounts should work now, though they won't be needed until the first homework is assigned. (But feel free to try them out. There's nothing stopping you from solving previous semesters' assignments.) Also, linked the synthesis demo code to the lectures page. |
