Hi, So why exactly do we need to use a WIRE buffer? or any kind of buffer? to slow down the signal? Michael
The "wire" primive is meant to be a way to connect things.
Put simply, a Verilog wire primite is really the same as a wire in a circuit schematic. Ie, if I instantiate a module, I need to use wires to connect it's outputs. I also need to use wires to handle tri-state. I can also use wires for combinational logic. There's no delay or whatever associated with a wire.
