Question 1.
What is a top-level module?
Show hintHide hint
Think about what connects different parts of an FPGA design.
Question 2.
Why is modular design beneficial?
Show hintHide hint
Consider how small pieces could help with debugging.
3Question 3.
What is the primary role of the top-level module in an FPGA design?
- Connects all sub-modules
- Processes data
- Stores memory
Show hintHide hint
