How do you use the log2(x) function in Const.v? I tried doing
`log2(somenumber) but it said it wasn't defined.

`ifdef MACROSAFE
localparam width = `log2(datawords);
`endif

Note the back quotes.
Make sure to have Const.v in your project.

Codes

Comparator
module Compare1 (A, B, Equal, Alarger, Blarger);
input A, B;
output Equal, Alarger, Blarger;
assign Equal = (A & B) | (~A & ~B);
assign Alarger = (A & ~B);
assign Blarger = (~A & B);
endmodule

// Make a 4-bit comparator from 4 1-bit comparators
module Compare4(A4, B4, Equal, Alarger, Blarger);
input [3:0] A4, B4;
output Equal, Alarger, Blarger;
wire e0, e1, e2, e3, Al0, Al1, Al2, Al3, B10, Bl1,
Bl2, Bl3;
Compare1 cp0(A4[0], B4[0], e0, Al0, Bl0);
Compare1 cp1(A4[1], B4[1], e1, Al1, Bl1);
Compare1 cp2(A4[2], B4[2], e2, Al2, Bl2);
Compare1 cp3(A4[3], B4[3], e3, Al3, Bl3);
assign Equal = (e0 & e1 & e2 & e3);
assign Alarger = (Al3 | (Al2 & e3) |
(Al1 & e3 & e2) |
(Al0 & e3 & e2 & e1));
assign Blarger = (~Alarger & ~Equal);
endmodule

Register
module and_gate (out, in1, in2);
input in1, in2;
output out;
reg out;
always @(in1 or in2) begin
out = in1 & in2;
end
endmodule
 

Quotes

Types of Assignment

a. Blocking assignment looks like “=” and should be used in
combinational logic.
b. Non-blocking assignment looks like “<=” and should be used for
sequential logic, namely anywhere you have an always @
(posedge Clock)
c. Note that these kinds of assignment refer only to always blocks.
The assign keyword always requires a simple “=”.

Register

always @ (posedge Clock) implies a register.
Any reg assigned using Non-blocking assignment (<=) in
an always @ (posedge Clock) block will become a
register during synthesis.
