Document Summary

Q1 (10 marks) vhdl semantics (estimated time: 10 minutes) All processes that start as resumed in a simulation cycle are given a chance to run in that simulation cycle. Without this rule, processes would remain suspended until an external stimulus was provided to cause them to have a need to run. 1. 5 marks information is correct, but does not justify answer. Fill in the blanks in the sentence below: A delta cycle is a simulation cycle in which time does not advance. 0. 5 marks in nitesimally small moment in time as alternative to simulation cycle . When doing delta-cycle simulation, how do you know that you are at the end of a simulation round? (page 2 of 18) There are no visible assignments in the simulation cycle, or alternatively, all signals kept their previous visible value. 1. 5 marks correct information, but does not justify the answer (page 3 of 18) Q2 (20 marks) dfd (estimated time: 30 minutes)
