The component "memory" you refer in your architecture needs to have exactly the same ports types, which is not the case in your code.
In the component, the adress is typed as "integer range ..." while the memory entity uses plain std_logic_vector...

Thank you for your time.
Missing :, so line 20 should be:
signal virt : std_logic_vector(15 downto 0);
and similar for subsequent lines.
I am making a circuit that handles read and write operations to some registers and uses a single bus to transfer data between registers, the problem is that when reading from bus (a register is reading from bus) it works well, but when trying to assign a value in a register it is not working. Note that if i used a signal to write to it will work !!!
My Code:
LIBRARY IEEE;
USE IEEE.STD_LOGIC_1164.ALL;

-- n is the size of word in a register, default is 16
-- m is the number of selection lines in the decoder, so 2 ^ m

-- data_bus: the bus used to transfer data
-- reg_read: input to a decoder determines which register to read from bus.
-- reg_write: input to a decoder determines which register to write to bus.
-- read: read signal
-- write: write signal
-- Clk: clock
-- Rst: Reset

END circuit;

END COMPONENT;

END COMPONENT;

END circuit_arch;
If you look at lbl1 in the generate statement you'll find the portmap:
lbl1: ndff generic map(n) port map(clk, rst,read_dec(i),data_bus, regs_out(i));
is positionally associative. While the port declaration reflected in the component declaration shows the order:
port( clk,rst,e : in std_logic;
d : in std_logic_vector(n-1 downto 0);
output : out std_logic_vector(n-1 downto 0));
Showing that read_dec(i) is the register load enable.
And the read buffers:
-- generate tristate buffers
loop2: for j in 0 to integer(2 ** m) - 1 generate
lbl2: tsb generic map(n) port map(write_dec(j), regs_out(j), data_bus);
end generate;
Show write_dec(j).
And examining the decodes for generating them shows:
-- generate decoders
dec1: ndecoder generic map(m) port map(read, reg_read, read_dec);
dec2: ndecoder generic map(m) port map(write, reg_write, write_dec);
read corresponds to read_dec and write corresponds to write_dec.
It certainly looks like you have the enables reversed for the registers loads and register output buffer enables.
There could be more, but without a MVCE someone answering can't get beyond basic eyeballing and analyzing.
And the reason Paebbels asked about target implementation is that for all practical purposes tristate internal buffers are generally restricted to ASIC implementations.
I'm currently working on a component that will perform addition or subtraction, depending on the user input. Right now, I am working on a process that handles the assignment of values to the internal signals which will be used by the internal components I am using. One problem that comes up is in the line when I'm assigning b_in with either the input b or the 2's complement of the input b. Two errors show up:
Error: COMP96_0015: addsub_16.vhd : (85, 17): ';' expected.
Error: COMP96_0046: addsub_16.vhd : (85, 41): Sequential statement expected.
The errors all reference to the line
b_in <= (b) when add_sub = '0' else (b_2scomp);
However when I placed this outside the process, no error occurred; only when it's inside the process. Can someone please help me why this is and what I can do to solve it?
In addition, I know that normally port mapping is done between the architecture declaration and the begin statement of the architecture. The reason I placed them after the process is because I needed to make sure that b_in has the right signal before the other components can use it. I don't know if this is the right way to do it, but I hope it is. This is just in case you guys are wondering why I'm dong it like this. Thanks

The ternary operator .. when .. else .. is not allowed inside a process block prior to VHDL-2008.
Solution 1: Write an ordinary if .. then .. else .. end if statement
Solution 2: Enable VHDL-2008 support in your tool chain
Solution 3: Write a function, lets say ite (if-then-else), which performs the ternary operation.
I have a simple task to do. I have a moudule hilbert which is unit under test. I just want to write "real_o" and "img" in a file on every rising edge of clock like
1 2
1 3
0 -2
0 -1
1 0
1 4
Where left column is real_o and right is img.
test bench code is
COMPONENT hilbert
PORT(
clk : IN std_logic;
reset : IN std_logic;
x : IN std_logic_vector(15 downto 0);
real_o : out STD_LOGIC;
img : OUT std_logic_vector(3 downto 0)
);
END COMPONENT;
--Inputs
signal clk : std_logic := '0';
signal reset : std_logic := '0';
signal x : std_logic_vector(15 downto 0) := (others => '0');
--Outputs
signal img : std_logic_vector(3 downto 0);
signal real_o : std_logic;
BEGIN
-- Instantiate the Unit Under Test (UUT)
uut: hilbert PORT MAP (
clk => clk,
reset => reset,
x => x,
real_o => real_o,
img => img
);
Can someone tell me steps to write real_o and img signals columnwise in a file?
Your question is not specific enough for this site. People will help you, but only if you have a specific problem that you are trying to solve. "Can you tell me what steps to do whatever" is too vague.
I will link you to an example that I created for file IO in VHDL that might help you. If you have any specific problems feel free to create a new post about them.
VHDL Writing to File
I'm trying to make a buffer to hold 16, 16-bit wide instructions for a small CPU design.
I need a way to load instructions into the buffer from my testbench. So I wanted to use an array of std_logic_vectors to accomplish this. However, I am getting a syntax error and I'm not sure why (or if I'm allowed to do this in VHDL for that matter).
The syntax error is at the line where I declare instructions
library IEEE;
use IEEE.STD_LOGIC_1164.ALL;
use IEEE.NUMERIC_STD.ALL;
entity instruction_buffer is
port
(
reset : in std_logic;
instructions : in array(0 to 15) of std_logic_vector(15 downto 0);
instruction_address : in std_logic_vector(3 downto 0);
clk : in std_logic;
instruction_out : out std_logic_vector(15 downto 0)
);
end instruction_buffer;
I've tried doing like this as well, but then I get syntax errors in my entity port mapping telling me that std_logic_vector is an unknown type. I swear, VHDL's syntax errors are less meaningful than C haha
library IEEE;
use IEEE.STD_LOGIC_1164.ALL;
use IEEE.NUMERIC_STD.ALL;
package instructionBuffer is
type instructionBuffer is array(0 to 15) of std_logic_vector (15 downto 0);
end package instructionBuffer;
entity instruction_buffer is
port
(
instruction_address : in std_logic_vector(3 downto 0);
clk : in std_logic;
instruction_out : out std_logic_vector(15 downto 0)
);
end instruction_buffer;
There is no need to split into two files, simply put all code into one file. You can also use generics inside your package for scalability:
library IEEE;
use IEEE.STD_LOGIC_1164.ALL;
package instruction_buffer_type is
constant INSTRUCTION_BUFFER_ADDRESS : integer := 4; --bits wide
constant INSTRUCTION_BUFFER_DATA : integer := 16; --bits wide
type instructionBuffer is array(0 to 2**INSTRUCTION_BUFFER_ADDRESS -1) of std_logic_vector (INSTRUCTION_BUFFER_DATA -1 downto 0);
end package instruction_buffer_type;
library IEEE;
use IEEE.STD_LOGIC_1164.ALL;
use IEEE.NUMERIC_STD.ALL;
use work.instruction_buffer_type.all;
entity instruction_buffer is
port
(
instruction_address : in std_logic_vector(INSTRUCTION_BUFFER_ADDRESS-1 downto 0);
instructions : in instructionBuffer;
clk : in std_logic;
instruction_out : out std_logic_vector(INSTRUCTION_BUFFER_DATA-1 downto 0)
);
end instruction_buffer;
I got it working:
In one file I have the following:
library IEEE;
use IEEE.STD_LOGIC_1164.ALL;
package instruction_buffer_type is
type instructionBuffer is array(0 to 15) of std_logic_vector (15 downto 0);
end package instruction_buffer_type;
and then in another I have:
library IEEE;
use IEEE.STD_LOGIC_1164.ALL;
use IEEE.NUMERIC_STD.ALL;
use work.instruction_buffer_type.all;
entity instruction_buffer is
port
(
instruction_address : in std_logic_vector(3 downto 0);
instructions : in instructionBuffer;
clk : in std_logic;
instruction_out : out std_logic_vector(15 downto 0)
);
end instruction_buffer;
It's so obvious that this language was a government project. It's so overly redundant.
multidimensional array
package aray is
constant aM: integer :=3;
constant vM: integer :=3;
type argay is array (1 to aM) of std_logic_vector (vM downto 0);
type arrgay is array (1 to aM) of argay;
end package aray;
