Model of the Month
Modeling a digital buffer with adjustable rise and fall delays
Can you model a buffer stage of which rising and falling delays are individually adjusted by digital inputs?
Tip of the Month
Fixing coarse-resolution waveforms displayed with third-party waveform viewers
Got stair-case waveforms when viewing xreal-type signals with PrimeWave or ViVA? Well, it's not XMODEL to blame.
Primitive of the Month
slice
This primitive continuously compares the two xreal-typed inputs and produces an xbit-type output indicating which one is higher.
