VLSI Systems Design Coursework
Bitslice Datapath Design
• Working individually.
• Implement an 8 bit multiplier datapath using bitslice techniques.
• Implement a synthesizable SystemVerilog control unit for your datapath.

8 bit Multiplier Datapath - TYPE#1
Datapath Architecture
Multiplication Algorithm - TYPE#1
• The datapath has been designed to implement the following simple multipli- cation algorithm:
A = 0;
B = Operand1; M = Operand2;
while ( M != 0 ) begin
M = M - 1; A = A + B;
end
B=0;
Result = B + A;
Implementaion of Blocks
• Each 8-bit register is implemented as 8 scannable register cells. The signals Clock,nReset, Test etc are not shown to keep the datapath diagram simple.
• The 8-bit adder is implemented as a ripple carry adder based on 8 full adder cells.
• The decrementer:
The decrementer can be constructed from a number of half subtractors. Each half subtractor is built from a half adder and two inverters.
8 Identical Bitslice Cells
• all inter-bitslice wiring is by butting.
Datapath Cell
inputs: Clock,nReset, Test, SDI,LoadA, LoadB, LoadM, LoadR, EnableAdder, EnableZero, EnableOp1,SelOp2, Operand1, Operand2
outputs: SDO,Result, Underflow
• control – synthesizable behavioural model generates control signals
• multiplier – structural model instances datapath and control
• multiplier stim – test harness.
To indicate that a new multiplication is required, the stimulus will raise the Req signal for one clock cycle. Once the Result becomes available, the control module will raise the Done signal for one cycle.
Bitslice Datapath Design – Synthesis, Place & Route
• control – Synthesis
You should synthesize the control unit and verify that the synthesized gate- level version works in place of the behavioural version.
• control – Place & Route
You should place and route the control unit and verify that the netlist extracted from magic version works in place of the behavioural version.
Location of magic files
• Cell Library Directory
All magic leaf cells (leftbuf .mag, rightend .mag, fulladder .mag . . . ) should exist only in the cell library directory:
˜/design/magic/tsmc180/cell_lib
• Bitslice Directory
The magic hierarchical cells (bitslice.mag, datapath.mag, control.mag) should exist only in the bitslice directory:
˜/design/magic/tsmc180/bitslice
To enable access to the leaf cells when creating a hierachical cell you will need to use the magic addpath command:
:addpath /home/
The easiest way to do this is to include the appropriate addpath command in a ” .magicrc” file in the bitslice directory. This is done automatically by the script.

Location of SystemVerilog files
• Behavioural Directory
- control .sv control stim .sv
- multiplier .sv multiplier stim .sv multiplier .tcl ˜/design/magic/tsmc180/bitslice/behavioural
• Gate Level Directory
- control .sv
˜/design/magic/tsmc180/bitslice/gate_level
• Extracted Directory
- control .vnet control .sv control stim .sv
- bitslice .vnet bitslice .sv bitslice stim .sv
- datapath .vnet datapath .sv datapath stim .sv ˜/design/magic/tsmc180/bitslice/extracted
Submission – Files
Prepare script. (prepare_vlsi supplementary) will collect the magic and Sys- temVerilog files into a single handin.tar file.
The script. will also run a number of simple simulations.
Submission – Supporting Figures

• ASM Chart single A4 page PDF document readable at A5 size
• Both figures combined on one page single A4 page PDF document
