我们如何在Verilog testbench中为双向端口分配输入?
我有一个设计和一个相关的测试平台。设计的相关部分如下:
module i2cModule (
input wire mod_en ,
input wire rec_ack ,
input wire burst_write , burst_read ,
input wire [7 : 0] data_tx ,
output wire [7 : 0] data_rx ,
output wire ack ,
inout wire scl ,
inout wire sda
) ;
// Some code here
send_command :
begin
case (bit_counter) // Parallel to serial convertor
7 : sda_reg = ( !scl) ? data_tx[7] : sda_reg ;
6 : sda_reg = ( !scl) ? data_tx[6] : sda_reg ;
5 : sda_reg = ( !scl) ? data_tx[5] : sda_reg ;
4 : sda_reg = ( !scl) ? data_tx[4] : sda_reg ;
3 : sda_reg = ( !scl) ? data_tx[3] : sda_reg ;
2 : sda_reg = ( !scl) ? data_tx[2] : sda_reg ;
1 : sda_reg = ( !scl) ? data_tx[1] : sda_reg ;
0 : sda_reg = ( !scl) ? data_tx[0] : sda_reg ;
endcase
start_bit_counter = (scl && !bit_counter) ? 1'b0 : start_bit_counter ;
i2c_next = (!start_bit_counter) ? wait_ack : send_command ;
end
wait_ack :
begin
ack_reg = ( scl) ? sda : ack_reg ;
start_bit_counter = ( scl) ? 1'b1 : 1'b0 ;
i2c_next = (scl && !ack_reg) ? (data_tx[7] ? rx_mode : tx_mode ) : wait_ack ;
end
// Some code here
Testbench如下:
module i2c_test;
// Inputs
reg mod_en;
reg rec_ack;
reg burst_write;
reg burst_read;
reg [7:0] data_tx;
// Outputs
wire [7:0] data_rx;
wire ack;
// Bidirs
wire scl;
wire sda;
// Some stimulus here ; all stimulus in initial block
mod_en = 1 ;
data_tx = 8'b10101010 ; // Write mode
repeat (8) @ (posedge scl) ; // Wait 8 clocks for command to be sent
sda = 1'b0 ; // slave ack
@ (posedge scl) ;
该设计成功地合成了目标设备。但是,在testbench中,当我尝试驱动sda
时,它会出错。另外,如果将sda
更改为reg,那么它也表示输出不能是reg类型。
如何在testbench中驱动sda
?

如果您需要从其他模块或测试平台驱动bidir信号,您可以这样做:
wire [7:0] input_value;
wire [7:0] bidir_signal;
reg [7:0] output_value;
reg output_value_valid;
mymodule myinstance (
...
...
.bidir_signal(bidir_signal),
...
...
);
assign input_value = bidir_signal;
assign bidir_signal = (output_value_valid==1'b1)? output_value : 8'hZZ;
initial begin
output_value_valid = 0;
// use bidir_signal as input here so you can read its current value
//
$display ("Current value: %x\n", input_value);
#100;
// now we switch to output signal: we write value 10101010 in it
output_value_valid = 1;
output_value = 8'hAA;
#100;
$finish;
end
