SV17. FIFO Design and Implementation

A First-In-First-Out (FIFO) buffer is a fundamental digital design component that stores data in a queue-like structure. This guide provides a comprehensive explanation of FIFO design principles, depth calculation methods, and a complete SystemVerilog implementation suitable for synthesis.

SV16. Finite State Machines (FSM)

Finite State Machines (FSMs) are fundamental building blocks in digital design, providing a structured approach to implementing sequential logic. This guide covers synthesizable SystemVerilog FSM design techniques, from basic concepts to advanced implementation strategies.

SV15. SystemVerilog Clock-to-Q Modeling: Why Non-Blocking Assignments Matter

This guide focuses on one of the most important timing parameters: Clock-to-Q delay and how to model it effectively in RTL design.

SV14. Unique and Priority Identifiers in SystemVerilog

SystemVerilog provides three special keywords (`unique`, `unique0`, and `priority`) that can be used with `case` and `if` statements to provide synthesis tools with optimization hints and enable runtime checking during simulation.

SV13. SystemVerilog Casting Guide

Casting in SystemVerilog is a powerful mechanism for explicitly converting data between different types, sizes, and sign interpretations. This guide covers the three main types of casting available in synthesizable SystemVerilog and their practical applications.
