Detailed Description
The following description of the embodiments of the present invention will be made clearly and fully with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which it is evident that the embodiments described are some, but not all embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the invention without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the invention.
Example 1
Referring to fig. 2, the present invention discloses an automated method of reconstructing a circuit diagram in a high-level hardware description language,
the method comprises the following steps:
s10, establishing a unit library of all basic units of the circuit, wherein the unit library describes logic expressions of all the basic units in the circuit by using a high-level hardware language, and comprises names of the basic units and logic expressions corresponding to the basic units, and referring to FIG. 3, the names of the basic units are on the left side, and the logic expressions corresponding to the basic units are on the right side;
s20, finding all triggers and module output ends in a circuit module in a netlist form which needs to be converted; referring to fig. 4, 10 is a flip-flop, and 20 is a module output;
s30, defining all signals at the D end of the trigger and the output signals of the module as starting signals, carrying out recursive search on the starting signals, and reconstructing a logic expression of a high-level language of the starting signals, wherein the left side of the expression is the starting signals, and the right side of the expression is a Boolean expression taking the output signals of the trigger or the input signals of the module as variables; referring to FIG. 5, there is shown a high-level linguistic logic expression of the departure signal of the netlist-form circuit block shown in FIG. 4 after recursion of the block;
s40, simplifying the Boolean expression.
In a specific embodiment, the recursive search comprises the steps of:
finding the driving device of the signal from the starting signal, searching the driving device by taking all input ends of the driving device as starting points,
and repeatedly performing recursive calling, and marking the device which is used as the driving device in the calling process, and marking the device as a marked device set.
Recursion calling, namely recursion returning when a preset condition is met; the preset condition includes a trigger as a driving device of the signal, a module input signal as a driving device of the signal, and a device in the marked device set as a driving device.
Upon encountering a device in the marked device set as a driving device, no expression is generated. This corresponds to a combinational logic loop, which is also of great importance for the analysis of the circuit, from which all combinational logic loops in the circuit module can be automatically found.
Example 2
The logic expression obtained in S30 is obtained by recursively calling and reconstructing the original circuit diagram, so that the expression structure completely reflects the structural relation of the original circuit diagram. Such boolean expressions, while easier to understand than circuit diagrams, are not the simplest and most easily understood form. For a simplified understanding of boolean expressions, carnot (m.karnaugh) has proposed a well-known carnot reduction in 1953. However, the carnot reduction method has been very difficult when the expression for processing more than 6 variables is simplified. Therefore, the invention uses an automatic method, discards the Gray code idea in the Carnot reduction on the basis of the Carnot reduction, and directly uses the operation capability of a modern computer to carry out traversal operation to carry out logic expression reduction.
The formula basis on which this reduction depends is: ab+a to b=a
The simplification process is as follows:
get all input variable lists in boolean expression, in the specific embodiment, boolean expression Y in S30, input variable list is A, B, C, D:
Y=
(A&B&~C&D)|(~A&B&~C&D)|(A&~B&~C&D)|(~A&~B&~C&D)|(~A&B&C&D)|(~A&~B&C&D)|(A&B&C&D)|(A&~B&C&D)|(A&B&~C&~D)|(A&B&C&~D)
is marked as a formula I;
for each possible combination of the input variable values, traversing, carrying out the operation in the original expression, and if the operation result is 1, reserving the input combination, otherwise discarding the input combination. For convenience of description, we define a set of all input combinations that make the result 1 as an ONES set, which can be understood as essentially a truth table of boolean expressions, and can be intuitively understood by expressing the ONES set as shown in fig. 6, ABCD represents a variable name, the preceding +number represents a value of 1, and the-number represents a value of 0. For example, taking the first line of fig. 6 as an example, when the D, C input variable takes 0 and the b, a input variable takes 1, the expression output is true. Fig. 6 is a set of ons generated by this expression.
In combination with the input variables, search statistics are performed on the ons set, which is the core of the whole reduction process: taking the expression of one such 4-variable input as an example for illustration, more variables can be analogized.
First, find out the situation that the single variable input is fixed to a certain definite value, how many table entries exist in ONES, if the number of table entries is 8, it means that the influence of this variable input to the logic result directly shields the influence of all other input variables, and the other variables can be eliminated, in FIG. 6, +D has 8 entries, which means that the output of the expression must be 1 as long as D is 1, so all ONES table entries containing +D entries can be combined to obtain the result shown in FIG. 7;
example 3
After the univariate lookup is completed (whether or not the ONES entries are merged), it starts to find bivariate, in a specific embodiment, boolean expression Y in S30,
Y=
(~A&B&~C&D)|(A&~B&~C&D)|(~A&~B&~C&D)|(~A&B&C&D)|(~A&~B&C&D)|(A&B&C&D)|(A&~B&C&D)|(A&B&~C&~D)|(A&B&C&~D)
the second is marked as a second;
in the case of single variable, the search for double variable is started because no simplification term is searched, and in the case of searching double variable, it can be found that when both variable D and variable C take values of 1, there are 4 terms of ONES entry values of 1, which means that as long as D and C inputs are 1 at the same time, the expression output must be 1, irrespective of the values of other variables. The ONES entries are then as shown in FIG. 8, and can be reduced to the form shown in FIG. 9;
the search for the remaining partial inputs then continues to be entered at some determined value and eventually may continue to be reduced to the form shown in fig. 10.
Summarizing the above, simplifying the boolean expression comprises the following steps:
acquiring all input variable lists in the Boolean expression, wherein N is used for representing the total number of input variables;
traversing each possible combination of the input variable values, carrying out operation in the original expression, if the operation result is 1, reserving the input combination, otherwise discarding the input combination, and defining a set formed by all input combinations with the result of 1 as an ONES set;
performing cyclic search on the ONES set, setting the states of M input variables to be determined values in each cyclic process, wherein M is less than or equal to N-1, searching the whole ONES set, and if the number of the searched table entries is equal to 2 on the premise that the M variables are determined values N-M Regardless of the variation of variables other than M input variables, the output of the logic expression is not affected, and irrelevant items which have no influence on the output are removed;
the previous step is repeated until all input states are traversed.
After the above-described cyclic search, the ONES set is reduced to a simplest form, which corresponds to a reduced-node and-or expression equivalent structure of the reduced Boolean expression.
In a specific embodiment, for equation one, the final reduction result is denoted as assignment Y as:
assign Y=(
(A&B&~C)|
(A&B&C)|
(D));
for equation two, the final reduction result is denoted as assignment Y as:
assign Y=(
(C&D)|
(~B&D)|
(~A&D)|
(A&B&~D))。
it should be understood that the exemplary embodiments described herein are illustrative and not limiting. Although one or more embodiments of the present invention have been described with reference to the accompanying drawings, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that various changes in form and details may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined by the following claims.
