Glossary

array


A collection of symbolic names that are treated as a unit in VHDL and Verilog HDL

Examples of VHDL array types are STD_LOGIC_VECTOR and BIT_VECTOR. See "Section 3.2.1: Array Types" in the IEEE Std 1076-1993 IEEE Standard VHDL Language Reference Manual for more information. Only one- and two- dimensional arrays of scalar elements are supported.

Examples of Verilog HDL array types are memories (which are arrays of register elements or words) and arrays of gate instances and registers. The elements, instances, or registers in the array are specified with a range. See "Section 3.3: Vectors," "Section 3.8: Memories," and "Section 7: Gate and Switch Level Modeling" in the IEEE Std 1364-1995 IEEE Standard Hardware Description Language Based on the Verilog Hardware Description Language manual for more information.
