FPGA example implementation requirements

“

- Implementation has some additional requirements related to the fact that your design has to interact with the outside world. Two of the most important of these requirements are input and output pin assignments and timing specifications. So let's see how I'll implement the 4-Bit Adder in our development boards. Once again, the inputs are two 4-Bit numbers, A and B, and the output is a 5-Bit number called C, in this diagram. Now, in the external hardware, I'll drive the inputs with the onboard switches and the output will drive the segment displays so that we can see A, B and C in hexadecimal in the displays. This is why we will need a so-called hexadecimal two 7-segment decoder module. This is a combination of circuit that converts a 4-Bit number into it's 7-segment display representation. So it has four inputs and seven outputs. You'll see that the system design for the Sidelinks and Intel Boards will be slightly different. The Intel system will be combinational and the Sidelink…
