Hi, Mr.Tricky:

Thanks for your replying.

There are some same processes in different interfaces in my design, and I wish to purge the duplicated code in these interfaces, so, I encapsulates these same process into a module and instantiate it in these interfaces. I think this would be helpful to maintain my design codes.

On the other hand, if the module could not be intantiated in interface for it is recognized as a chip, why neither interface? Just as you said, the interface is like a group of interconnections, why couldn't it contain a group of another interconnections?
