entity convergentRoundingOdd is
port (clk : in std_logic;
a : in std_logic_vector (23 downto 0);
b : in std_logic_vector (15 downto 0);
zlast : out std_logic_vector (23 downto 0));
end convergentRoundingOdd;

architecture beh of convergentRoundingOdd is

signal ar : signed(a'range);
signal br : signed(b'range);
signal z1 : signed(a'length + b'length - 1 downto 0);

signal multadd, multaddr : signed(a'length + b'length - 1 downto 0);
signal pattern_detect : boolean;

constant pattern : signed(15 downto 0) := (others => '1');
constant c : signed := "0000000000000000000000000111111111111111";

-- Convergent Rounding: LSB Correction Technique
-- ---------------------------------------------
-- For static convergent rounding, the pattern detector can be
-- used to detect the midpoint case. For example, in an 8-bit
-- round, if the decimal place is set at 4, the C input should
-- be set to 0000.0111. Round to odd rounding should use
-- CARRYIN = "0" and check for PATTERN "XXXX.1111" and then
-- replace the units place bit with 1 if the pattern is
-- matched. See UG193 for details
