Create 16 D flip-flops. It's sometimes useful to only modify parts of a group of flip-flops. The byte-enable inputs control whether each byte of the 16 registers should be written to on that cycle. byteena1 controls the upper byte d15:8, while byteena0 controls the lower byte d7:0.
resetn is a synchronous, active-low reset.
All DFFs should be triggered by the positive edge of clk.
module top_module (
input clk,
input resetn,
input [1:0] byteena,
input [15:0] d,
output [15:0] q
);
always@(posedge clk) begin
if(~resetn)
q<=16'b0;
else begin
if(byteena[0])
q[7:0]<=d[7:0];
if(byteena[1])
q[15:8]<=d[15:8];
end
end
