How can I pick some bits from bus in Quartus?

Hi, I'm trying to select a part of the bus, from the output "Salida_alu" which is 32 bits [31..0], I am only interested in 4 bits [3..0] to enter them in the Func input. I have done it in several ways but in the "RTL" I keep showing separately. I will be very grateful if you can help me, thanks.

Sorry, but I don't understand what you did. Could you explain me, please?

Vicky is saying you don't need separate bit taps for each bit. You already named the vector correctly (Salida_alu[3..0]) so just connect it directly. The bigger issue I see is that you'll have multiple drivers directly driving ALU_DER. Should there be some logic to select between Salida_alu[3..0] and Entrada_Func_Alu2[3..0]?

Hello again, sorry for these newbie questions, but I'm starting in Quartus.

It really doesn't have logic what I was doing, it was just a small test to connect other modules.

I already found what it required, thank you very much to both of you.

Regards.

Ray.

This is what I was looking for in 'RTL'

Hi Ray,

I appreciate your efforts & patience.

just perform the following steps,

  1. draw one line using "Orthogoanl Bus Tool" in .bdf file & name it as Salida_alu[3..0].
  2. Then connect one end of Salida_alu[3..0] to the bus line" Entrada_Fun_alu2[3..0]" as shown in below screenshot.
