DFF with byte enable
15%flip-flopsproceduresvectorsCreate a 16-bit register (16 D flip-flops) with byte-wise write enables and an active-low synchronous reset resetn.
At every rising edge of clk:
- If
resetnis 0, the whole register is cleared to 0 (reset wins over the enables). - Otherwise,
byteena[1]controls the upper byte: when it is 1,q[15:8]capturesd[15:8]; when 0, the upper byte holds its value. - Likewise
byteena[0]controls the lower byteq[7:0]←d[7:0].
Each byte can be written independently of the other.
