[SOLVED] Latches create in verilog code

[tayyab786]

i create 1d array in verilog code like this

reg[7:0]  channel[1:length-3];
integer i ;
 
initial 
 begin
  for (i = 1 ; i <= length-3 ; i = i+1)
   begin
    channel[i] = i * 10;
   end
 end

now in always blocks i am comparing some input logic like this

         cts_2 = 11'bz ;
         cts_3 = 11'bz ;
         cts_4 = 11'bz ;
         cts_5 = 11'bz ;
         cts_6 = 11'bz ;
         cts_7 = 11'bz ;
         cts_8 = 11'bz ;
         count = 1 ;
         count1 = 0 ;
     end  
    else
         begin
        if( user[1:3] == 3'b000 &&  count1[0]!=1 )   //Count1---only one time access only
             begin
              cts_1= {3'b000,channel[count]};
              count=count+1;
              count1[0]=1;
             end
            else
          begin         
              cts_1 = cts_1;
             end

---

the line "cts_1= {3'b000,channel[1]};" give latches

now question is how to remove latches. and why this line create latches

Re: latches create in verilog code

Because you are using blocking assignments.
Use non-blocking ( <= ) assignment instead.

Also, why are you resetting all the values to z?

Re: latches create in verilog code

Blocking assignments in edge sensitive always block is surely bad design practice (don't consider special cases where they are intentionally used). But I don't understand how they could cause latch generation in this case.

I rather guess the posted code is somehow "like" the original code but essentially different. It would be a good idea to report the respective synthesis warning exactly, and to post complete entity code including variable definitions, so that we can compile it for test.

Re: latches create in verilog code

the initial block may have some issues -- I know some tools will accept this as a warning. Using integer types in an initial block can result in the synthesis ignoring this. If that is an issue, use generate and genvar.

I also don't see any latches here. My suspicion is that a different file is being used in synthesis or there is some other issue with the original post.

last, "cts_1 = cts_1;" is not needed.

Re: latches create in verilog code

i know that else statement is not necessary but it actually sure that not to create latches. because missing if else statement cause latches... i also initialize cts with zero but same warning show.

the complete code is

module channel_selector(user,rst,clk,cts_1,cts_2,cts_3,cts_4,cts_5,cts_6,cts_7,cts_8);

parameter length = 11;

output reg [1:length]cts_1,cts_2,cts_3,cts_4,cts_5,cts_6,cts_7,cts_8;

i know else statement is not necessary but it actually sure that not to create latches because missing if else statement might cause latches. I also initialize cts_1... with zero but same warning again show

the warning show is

As previously guessed, the "complete code" doesn't create latches.

You are essentially misunderstanding compilation warnings like this

WARNING:Xst:1710 - FF/Latch <Mtridata_cts_8_10> (without init value) has a constant value of 1 in block <channel_selector>. This FF/Latch will be trimmed during the optimization process.

It's a warning about removing signals that have no effect on the design output during optimization. "FF/Latch" refers to any memory element, not specifically latches.

I didn't check if the design serves a useful purpose, but there are no latches.

missing if else statement might cause latches

It does in combinational always block, not in registered code.

Yes FVM you are right. I alright solve that problem.
