Honored Contributor --- Quote Start --- No "8'b11010001" is a 8 bit sized number but " 'b11010001" is a simulator defined sized number, but at least 32 bit. It is a common misconception that a ticked(') number without an explicit size is automatically sized based on the usage in that particular usage but that is not true. It is essentially the simulator default size. So you either packing in 8 bits or however many bits the simulator feels like giving you. --- Quote End --- I think that's the case. Thanks:D
