Hi,

uh, better respond late than never I guess :cool: the signal "output", which is used also used as an input, is not initialized. If you run this through ModelSim, it will immediately tell you that it will return all X's as a result of an arithmetic operation with that.

Either define your port as "output: buffer std_logic_vector(15 downto 0) := (others => '0')" or introduce a reset signal.

Best regards,
