Using IPs on a Verilog code

Hi,

I'm using an IP for a multiplier and an accumulator, and I'm quite unsure of how to use it in my Verilog code. I built a block diagram for it, but I need to control the number of times these 2 ips function, before they're reset.

To give a little background, I want the multiplier to multiply n number of values sets, and send them to the accumulator, which will accumulate the the n number of values sent, and send the final value to the output buffer.

Could someone kindly guide me on the steps to be taken? Thanks a bunch!

Best Regards,

Shainy

    I think folks on this board are going to want to see the code you have so far and then can help you edit or finish it.

    Hi Sstrell,

    Thank you for your reply! I'm actually a bit lost on how to use the ip I've created on my verilog code. I tried looking for ways and examples on the internet, but I was not able to. Am I to use it as a library, or a module, or a function, or am I supposed to instantiate it in a module?

    Thanks,

    Shainy

      Simple instantiation. The IP Parameter Editor (or older Megawizard Plug-In Manager) generate instantiation templates to help you instantiate the IP in your code. Look for _inst files or, in the IP Parameter Editor, you can go to the Generate menu and look at the instantiation templates there.
