The division operator does not appear to be supported for SInt.

Is this intentional?

I thought Verilog could express signed division.

Hi,


Mixing signed and unsigned values is not supported. You would have to cast the unsigned expression to a signed one.

Hope this helps.

Ah.

Silly me :-)

I was confused, all I was missing was to write:

val a : UInt
val b : UInt
val c : UInt
c := (a.asSInt / b.asSInt).asUInt

// the below will not compile of course
// c := (a.asSInt / b.asSInt)
