The following sections discuss these exceptions.
Unregistered Operations and Assignments
Certain logical and bit-wise operations involving constants are trivial and
require no logic. In hardware, they are performed simply by
manipulating wires.
conditions. If an assignment consists solely of such operations, then its
result is not registered.
The following assignment is an example of a zero logic-element
operation.
The C2H Compiler generates no register for the variable masked_data,
because its value is represented simply by concatenating 12 bits of zeroes
with the lower 20 bits of data_in.
Additional examples of unregistered assignments:
