Example of Translation of Verilog/FinSimMath into SystemC


This example runs on FinSim version 10_08_24 or higher. It shows how one can translate Verilog/FinSimMath models into SystemC models.

In order to inspect the results of the translation and to run this example one can execute the following commands: 

finvc +gen_sysc t3.v
more fin_sysc.h
more fin_sysc.cpp
make
v2sc.x

The original design consists of t3.v.

By invoking finvc +gen_sysc t3.v one obtains fin_sysc.h and fin_sysc.cpp.

If one has the files Makefile, Makefile.rules, and Makefile.config, one can obtain an executable named v2sc.x.

However, note that all display statements are omitted in the translation, as the translation is meant to become just input for a synthesis tool. In case one needs to also simulate the result of the translation one must instrument the file fin_sysc.cpp with display statements using either printf() or cout.

The file t3.v is listed below: 

module t3;
`define SIM 1   
parameter integer SIZE = 16;
localparam integer SIZE2 =  8;
real a [0:SIZE-1], b [0:SIZE-1];
reg [0:63] j, i, is, ij;
real e, s;

`ifdef SIM
task L1;
  begin
    for (j = 0; j < SIZE; j++)
      begin
        a[j] = j;
        b[j] = j+1;
      end    
  end
endtask
`endif

task T1;
  begin
    s = 1.0;
    for (i = 0; i < 2; i++)
      begin
         for (j = 0; j < SIZE2; j++)
           begin
             is = i*SIZE2;
             ij = is+j;
             e = a[ij]*b[ij];
             s = s + e;
`ifdef SIM
    $display("s=%e\n", s);
`endif
           end
      end

`ifdef SIM
    $display("s=%e\n", s);
`endif
  end
endtask

initial begin
`ifdef SIM
  L1;
`endif
  T1;
end
endmodule

The file fin_sysc.h is listed below: 

#include "$FINTRONIC/include/sysc/datatypes/fx/scfx_ieee.h"
SC_MODULE( t3 ) {
   #define  SIZE  16
   #define  SIZE2  8
   sc_int<64>  a [16] , b [16];
   sc_int<64> j, i, is, ij;
   sc_int<64>  e , s;

   void L1();

   void T1();

   } };

      a [j] = j;
      b [j] = (j + 1);
   }
}
void t3::T1()
{
s = 1.0;
for (i = 0; (i < 2); i = (i + 1))
   {
      for (j = 0; (j < SIZE2); j = (j + 1))
         {
            is = (i * SIZE2);
            ij = (is + j);
            e = (a [ij] * b [ij]);
            s = (s + e);
            ;
         }
   }
