FSM + D: Greatest Common Divisior
I. Introduction
The purpose of this lab is to implement a finite state machine in VHDL
to calculate the Greatest Common Divisor(GCD) of 2 numbers.
The algorithim used to compute the GCD is as follows. Two numbers
are compared ( x = y ?). If so the the GCD is found. If x > y,
then x = x - y. The two numbers are then compared once again. If y >
x, then y = y - x. The two numbers are then compared once again. Here
is and example of our algorithim:
x = 10
y = 2
Is x = y? No, x > y therefore x = x - y
in our case, x = 10 - 2 = 8.
Is x = y? No, x > y therefore x = x - y
In our case, x = 8 - 2 = 6.
Is x = y? No, x > y there fore x = x - y
In our case, x = 6 - 2 = 4.
Is x = y? No, x > y therefore x = x - y
In our case, x = 4 - 2 = 2.
Is x = y? Yes, therefore the GCD of 10 and 2 is 2.
Note that 0 is not a valid input.
The design of the GCD calculator should be divided into 2 parts - a
controller and a datapath. The controller is an FSM which issues commands
to the datapath based on the current state and the external inputs. This
can be a behavioral description. The datapath contains a netlist of
functional units like multiplexors, registers, subtractors and a
comparator, and hence this design is structural. The controller
basically steps through the GCD algorithim shown above. If x = y,
we have finished computing the GCD, and we go to the final state
and assert the data output line. The Datapath does the actual GCD
computation. It has the following components:
- Mux: takes 2 4-bit inputs and one select line. Based on
the select line, it outputs either the 1st 4-bit number or the
2nd 4-bit number.
- Register: Takes a 4-bit input, a load signal, reset,
and a clock signal. If the load signal is high and the clock is
pulsed, it outputs the 4-bit number.
- Comparator: Takes 2 4-bit numbers, and assets one of 3
signals depending on whether the 1st number is less than,
greater than or equal to the 2nd number.
- Subtractor: Takes 2 4-bit numbers, subtracts the smaller
number from the larger.
- Output Register: Holds the GCD value. When x = y the GCD
has been found and can be outputted. Because it is a
register entity it should also take a clock and reset signal.

II. Procedure
implementation and simulation:
- For an idea of how the gcd calculator might look, refer to
the above figure. However, you state machine can have
a different number of states, archs, and loops.
- Create an FSM to reflect the GCD calculation process.
- Convert the FSM to an FSM +D
- Write the VHDL code to reflect the controller and data
path.
- Write a test bench and verify the correctness of your design using
Aldec Active-VHDL
downloading:
- Once you have verified your results using Aldec HDL, check
out an XS40 board from the T.A.
- You will need to add the 7-segment decoder to the design.
- Create a .ucf file to reflect your connections and
generate a bit file.
- Download your .bit file and verify your results.
