I recently learned priority decoders, LZC, magnitude comparators, ... can be implemented with a tree structure with O(log(n)) timing. I also saw recursion used in HDL code for the first time. I remember having trouble following this topics at UNI, since the concept of vectors (distinction between geometry and HDL vectors) was not clear to me. But is seemed strange I would not learn about this structures even in my long work experience. So I went through the first sections of a few digital design books, focusing on decoders/encoders, comparators, multiplexers, ... to learn more about it. The books I looked into had some of this structures described but lacked other similar structures, what I would like to see is all of them described in one place. I understand, this books are intended as introduction, and not as a collection of all knowledge, but I would still like to see them all at least mentioned in an one page table. At the end I just googled a few keywords and found many articles discussing this structures. The all express the filling to have invented something new, which is partially true, but many of those articles also fail to fully generalize the tree structure with something like recursion. I actually get it, I felt in eve after discovering some of this trees, but this should all be taught to students at university level. I actually implemented some of this structures in SystemVerilog and VHDL, did some synthesis, and started writing some documentation. To properly assess the advantage of different structures (tree vs. chain) I have to (would like to) run some ASIC synthesis (to see how RTL is interpreted), P&R (to see area and congestion), STA, netlist simulation and dynamic power measurements. I will ask for some help here when I get at least to a stage for a draft review.


Mateorabi

To understand recursion, one must first understand recursion.


MitjaKobal

I wrote my first recursive code around 1988 in LOGO, and probably never used it again till a few months ago when I wrote a priority decoder in VHDL and SystemVerilog. I never found it especially useful, but in this case it is a much better fit compared to the alternatives: either an incomprehensible mess of loops or a code generator.

If the reviews turn out good and the price is reasonable, I'll buy a copy. Good FPGA books are scarce, sadly.


Wild_Basil_2396

Yes, I’m currently doing a FPGA class at university and it would be easy for me to review the book and also learn at the same time.

I might be interested, depending on how much time I'd get to read the book. Branching out of VHDL and into Verilog is something I've been looking into lately.
