The \"when/else\" conditional signal assignment offers an alternative to the IF

Question

The "when/else" conditional signal assignment offers an alternative to the IF statement. Unlike IF, when/else does not go in a process, so it is quicker to write. Being outside the process it must be kept simple (no nesting for example). The code below makes Z = "101" when ADDR = "O1" or "10", Z = "111" when ADDR = "11" and Z = "000" for all other ADDR values (ADDR "00").Rewrite the VHDL code replacing the "when/else" with a IF statement. Just like IF, the "when/else" can be handle more complicated expressions than the CASE or "with/select" 3) library IEEE use IEEE.STD LOGIC 1164 ALL entity hw12 p3 is Port (signal ADDR: in STD LOGIC VECTOR(1 DOWNTO 0) signal Z :out STD LOGIC VECTOR(2 DOWNTO O)) end hw12 p3 architecture behavioral of hw12_p3 is begin outside all processes Z

Explanation / Answer

CODE:

library IEEE;

entity hw12_p3 is

Port( signal ADDR: in STD_LOGIC_VECTOR(1 DOWNTO 0);

signal Z : out STD_LOGIC_VECTOR(2 DOWNTO 0);

end hw12_p3;

architecture behavioral of hw12_p3 is

process(ADDR)

begin

if ( ADDR = "01") or (ADDR = "10") then

Z<= "101";

elsif( ADDR = "11") then

Z<= "111";

else

Z<= "000";

end if;

end process;

end behavioral;
