64 bit Shift Register Single Chip

[danadakk]

Occasionally I need long shift registers. This is a design done on a single PSOC
chip using verilog.

Its 64 bits wide, SIPO, with controls to clear or set all bits.

Notice many additional chip resources went un used that are availble for other tasks,
like COM, Timer, Counter, Analog,.....see right hand window of resources used/left.

This particular design eats up most of the I/O, so using additional onchip resources, for example
if you wanted to use its LCD capability, would be challenged by the amount of I/O consumed by
the shift register. The shift register could also be expanded using another chip programmed
same way.

Note chip has ARM M3 in it for general purpose programming.

The verilog code fairly simple, looks like (you first generate the symbol with a wizard) -

    reg [63:0] SReg;

    always @(posedge ClkIn) begin

        if ( ( SetAll == 1'b1 ) || ( ClrAll == 1'b1 ) ) begin
       
            if ( SetAll == 1'b1 )
           
                SReg <= 64'hFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF;                   // Set all bits in Shift Reg to "1"s
           
            else if ( ClrAll == 1'b1 )

                SReg <= 64'h0000000000000000;                   // Clr all bits in Shift Reg to "0"s

            end else begin

                SReg <= {SerIn, SReg[63:1]};                     // Shift right 1 bit and input the Serial in Bit
                Para64Out <= SReg;
                SerOut <= SReg[0];
            end
        end
   

//`#end` -- edit above this line, do not edit this line

Note if you are not a coder this could have been done via schematic capture just dragging and
dropping onto canvas 64 D FF's from its resource catalog and wiring them up. But very tedious
in this case.

Here is cleaned up code that a experienced coder showed the Verilog Novice (me)
that saved substantial fabric in part. Mainly due to elimination of one 64 bit register
that was basically redundant to design.

By the way if you had specific patterns you wanted loaded into SR with a single pin
per pattern or code that pulls from a table of patterns thats also quite easy in code
to do, just another "if" test or a case statement would handle that.
