Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Provide a complete example of a Verilog module that uses both synthesizable and non-synthesizable constructs. Highlight each type clearly.

💡 Hint: Be mindful of the definitions we discussed.

Challenge 2 Hard

Discuss the implications of having an implied latch in your design and how it relates to the boundaries between synthesizable and non-synthesizable constructs.

💡 Hint: Reflect on how every conditional path should be specified.
