Hey everyone,
I've got a hopefully easy to solve question.
The following Code is given:
1 | module filter
|
2 | (
|
3 | input clk,
|
4 | input en,
|
5 | input [31:0] rawdata,
|
6 | output [31:0] filtered_data
|
7 | );
|
8 |
|
9 | reg [31:0] filtered_data_q;
|
10 |
|
11 | assign filtered_data = filtered_data_q;
|
12 |
|
13 | // filter + register
|
14 | always @(posedge clk)
|
15 | if (en)
|
16 | // Simple recursive filtering
|
17 | filtered_data_q <= filtered_data_q * 3 / 4 + rawdata / 4;
|
18 | else
|
19 | filtered_data_q <= filtered_data_q;
|
20 |
|
21 | endmodule
|
This code synthesizes and simulates perfectly, just as expected.
But once I add a simple(st) buffer, nothing works:
1 | wire temp;
|
2 | assign temp = rawdata;
|
Additionally, I used 'temp' instead of 'rawdata' for the filter.
The result is that my complete filtered_q register is removed during
optimization step for the following reason: "Stuck at GND due to stuck
port data_in"
I also tried
1 | reg temp;
|
2 | always @ (rawdata)
|
3 | temp = rawdata;
|
but that did not change anything.
Any Explanations? Why does this happen?
