In this paper, we designed an 8-bit color adjustor for SDTV using Verilog HDL. The conversion block requires a lot of multiplication. So we adopted Booth algorithm to reduce amount of operation and processing time. To improve speed, we designed the system output as parallel structure. We synthesized the designed system using Xilinx ISE and verified the operation through simulation using Modelsim.

The hearing aid chip described in this paper is an analog & digital mixed system. The design focuses on the$\mu$DSP core. This $\mu$DSP core includes internal time delays to two inputs from front and rear microphones. The paper consists of two parts; one is the composure and signal processing algorithm of digital hearing aids and the other is Verilog HDL codes for$\mu$DSP cores. All digital modules in the design were coded and synthesized by Verilog HDL codes which were verified by Mentor Graphics and Synopsis semiconductor chip design tools.

This paper proposes on the structure for reducing the circuit area and increasing the computation speed in implementing to hardware using the SEED algorithm of a 128-bit block cipher. SEED cipher can be implemented with S/W or H/W method. It should be important that we have minimize the area and computation time in H/W implementation. To increase the computation speed, we used the structure of the pipelined systolic array, and this structure is a simple thing without including any buffer at the input and output circuit. This circuit can record the encryption rate of 320 Mbps at 10 MHz clock. We have designed the circuit with the Verilog HDL coding showing the circuit performances in the figures and the table.

As a system becomes more complex, a design relies more heavily on a methodology based on high-level abstraction and functional verification. SystemVerilog includes characteristics of hardware design language and verification language in the form of extensions to the Verilog HDL. However, the OOP of System Veri log does not allow multiple inheritance. In this paper, we propose adoption of SystemC to introduce multiple inheritance. After being created, a SystemC unit is combined with a SystemVerilog-based verification environment using SystemVerilog DPI and ModelSim macro. Employing multiple inheritance of SystemC makes a design of a verification environment simple and easy through source code reuse. Moreover, a verification environment including SysemC unit has a benefit of reconfigurability due to OOP.

Until just a few years ago, digital circuit design techniques in register transfer level using Verilog or VHDL have been recognized as the up-to-date way compared with the traditional schematic design, and truly they have been used as the most popular skill for most chip designs. However, with the advent of era in which the complexity of semiconductor chip counts over billion transistors with advanced manufacturing technology, designing in register transfer level became too complex to meet the requirements of the needs, so the design paradigm has to change so that both design and synthesis can be done in higher level of abstraction. Bluespec SystemVerilog (BSV) is the only HDL which enables both circuit design and generating synthesizable code in the system level developed so far. In this contribution, I survey and analyze the features which supports the new paradigm in the BSV HDL, not very familiar to industry yet.

UDP library of Verilog HDL has been used for simulation of digital systems. But it takes a lot of time and efforts to generate a gate-level library equivalent to the UDP library manually due to the characteristic of UDP that does not support synthesis. It is indispensable to generate equivalent gate-level model in testing the digital systems because fault coverage can be reduced without the equivalent gate-level models. So, it is needed to automate the process of generating the equivalent gate-level models. An algorithm to solve this problem has been proposed, but it is unnecessarily complex and time-consuming. This paper suggests a new improved algorithm to implement the conversion to gate-level models, which exploits the characteristic of UDP Experimental results are demonstrated to show the effectiveness of the new algorithm.

This paper reports the RFC(Recursive Flow Classification) algorithm that is available on multiple fields. It is easy to be implemented by both software and hardware. For high speed classification of packets, the implementation of RFC is essential by hardware. Hence, in this paper, RFC algorithm is simulated by Verilog-HDL, and it verify the efficiency of the algorithm. The result shows that the algorithm can perform a packet classification within several cycles. It is not only much faster than software implementation but also enough to support OC192c.

Reconfigurable computing using a field-programmable gate-array (FPGA) device has become a promising solution in system design because of its power efficiency and design flexibility. To bring the benefit of FPGA to many application programmers, there has been intensive research about automatic translation from high-level programming languages (HLL) such as C and C++ into hardware. However, the large gap of syntaxes and semantics between hardware and software programming makes the translation challenging. In this paper, we introduce a new approach for the translation by using the widely used GCC compiler. By simply adding a hardware description language (HDL) backend to the existing state-of- the-art compiler, we could minimize an effort to implement the translator while supporting full features of HLL in the HLL-to-HDL translation and providing high performance. Our translator, called GCC2Verilog, was implemented as the GCC's cross compiler targeting at FPGAs instead of microprocessor architectures. Our experiment shows that we could achieve a speedup of up to 34 times and 17 times on average with 4-port memory over PICO microprocessor execution in selected EEMBC benchmarks.

Verilog-HDL-based modeling can be performed to confirm the fast operation characteristics after setting the design parameters of each block considering the stability of the system by performing linear phase-domain modeling on the phase-locked loop. This paper proposed Verilog-HDL modeling including DCO noise and DTC nonlinear characteristic. After completing the modeling, the time-domain transient simulation can be performed to check the feasibility and the functionality of the proposed PLL system, then the phase noise result from the system design based on the functional model can be verified comparing with the ideal phase noise graph. As a result of the comparison of simulation time (6 us), the Verilog-HDL-based modeling method (1.43 second) showed 484 times faster than the analog transistor level design (692 second) implemented by TSMC 0.18-㎛.

EPON은 점대다점 구조를 가지기 때문에 ONU에서 OLT로 데이터를 전송하는 상향 트래픽 전송에서 전송매체를 공유함에 따라 충돌이 발생하게 된다. 그러므로 모든 사용자가 공정한 매체 접근 권한을 가지고 경쟁 없이 전송을 하기 위한 매체접근 제어 기술이 필수적이다. RC-DBA 알고리즘은 버스트 트래픽 지원과 ONU들 사이의 공정성 지원 등의 장점을 가진 매체접근 제어 알고리즘이다. 본 논문에서는 RC-DBA 알고리즘을 적용한 OLT와 간단한 ONU를 하드웨어 기술 언어인 Verilog HDL을 사용하여 작성하고 시뮬레이션을 해봄으로써 그 기능을 검증하였다.
