[Chisel] About conditional branching

Introduction

While writing chisel, you will learn that you can use the following syntax as a conditional branch.

  • if

  • when

  • Mux (MuxCase)


How should these be used?



if and when/Mux

First, these differ in whether the variable used for conditional judgment is of scala Boolean type or chisel BOOL type.

if: scala Boolean type

when/Mux: chisel BOOL type


In other words, whether to use if or when/Mux depends on the type of the variable to be judged.



when and Mux

As for how to use when and Mux, I think

  • "Mux" when calculating a value to be connected to some signal it seems that it is not possible to connect the value calculated inside "when" to the value defined outside "when" (a compile error occurred).

  • "when" when processing changes depending on conditions


This is just my personal opinion, though.
