Detailed Description

The pipeline can be used to keep data during a period in which part of it is processed by other hardware components. Two architectures are available: pipeline_lpm_arch is based on the lpm_shiftreg library components whereas pipeline_arch1 is composed of single flip-flops.

Generics:

WIDTHis the width of the data word.
DEPTHis the number of clocks (flip-flop layers) after which the input appears at the output.

Ports:

sclris usable only in the pipeline_lpm_arch.
enais usable only in the pipeline_lpm_arch.
