using single wire as bus

Question

Dear friends, i had a problem when i was drawing my circuit.

I want to connect the out pins from the SN7493 counter to the comparator... but the comparator has only inputs for buses, not for singles nodes.

You have any idea how to solve this problem, i will be very glad if you can help me.

thanks!

add a wire connection to the bus, and give it a name like my_bus[7..0]

then for the single bit connections add a wire and label them my_bus[0], my_bus[1] etc. This is named association rather than direct connection.

Do you mean your counter is only 1 bit output while your comparator has buses inputs?

A 1 bit comparator is also known under the name XNOR gate.
