External Names; Beyond the scope of VHDL
There are many things that differentiate VHDL from Verilog. One example, is the ability to use global signals in Verilog, which enables a signal at the top-level to connect to one or more points in the hierarchy. This particular feature is used very effectively by Xilinx, to distribute the Global Set/Reset signal GSR to their IP and cell simulation models. The signal is generated in the glbl.v, wh... »
