How to add an binary value to a vector?

[ALuPin]

Hi everybody,

I have a question concerning the following:

If I want to add a binary value to a vector WITHOUT using
the ieee.std_logic_unsigned.all library
I get the error message : "No feasible entries for infix op: "+"
How can I do this addition only with the ARITH and 1164 library?
Thank you for your help.

Kind regards
Andre V.


----------------------------------------------------------------
use ieee.std_logic_arith.all;
use ieee.std_logic_1164.all;

signal t_Parallel_data_in : std_logic_vector(7 downto 0);

begin

process
begin
...
if condition='1' then
t_Parallel_data_ in <= t_Parallel_data_in + "00001010";
end if;

end process;

Convert you operands to unsigned, using the unsigned() function, then
add them, and convert them back std_logic_vector with the
conv_std_logic_vector() function.

begin

process
begin
...
if condition='1' then
t_Parallel_data_in <= t_Parallel_data_in + "00001010";

t_Parallel_data_in <= std_logic_vector(unsigned(t_Parallel_data_in) +
10));

or, if you REALLY want to use the "00001010" format:

t_Parallel_data_in <= std_logic_vector(unsigned(t_Parallel_data_in) +
unsigned'("00001010"));

end if;
end process;

I also suggest that you use ieee.numeric_std instead of
ieee.std_logic_arith as it's newer and more portable across tools. For
your case, the code is the same for both packages.
