Need to feed two buses with one output

Hello everybody, 

 

In my top level design in Quartus I am trying to feed the LSB of two buses 

with a signal which comes out of a block, usually I do this by naming the output signal the same name as the LSB of the bus: 

 

lv_to_uc_status_i[0] 

 

But I cannot name the output signal twice, so how can I tell Quartus that I need to feed two buses with this signal ? 

 

Thanks, 

Eric

Hi Eric, 

 

what are you using Verilog, VHDL schematics 

 

Kind regards

Hello Pletz, 

 

Thanks for your answer ! 

I am using Schematics, in Verilog this is pretty easy actually, turns out 

this is also pretty easy in schematics. I need to feed the signal into  

2 wire buffers, on the other side of these buffers I can feed two inputs  

in the top level. See the Snagit picture I have attached below. 

 

Again, thanks for your answer !! 

 

Cheers, 

Eric
