object dontTouch
Marks that a signal should not be removed by Chisel and Firrtl optimization passes
- Source
- dontTouch.scala
class MyModule extends Module { val io = IO(new Bundle { val a = Input(UInt(32.W)) val b = Output(UInt(32.W)) }) io.b := io.a val dead = io.a +% 1.U // normally dead would be pruned by DCE dontTouch(dead) // Marking it as such will preserve it }
- Note
Calling this on Data creates an annotation that Chisel emits to a separate annotations file. This file must be passed to FIRRTL independently of the
.firfile. The execute methods in chisel3.Driver will pass the annotations to FIRRTL automatically.

Package structure
The chisel3 package presents the public API of Chisel. It contains the concrete core types
UInt,SInt,Bool,FixedPoint,Clock, andReg, the abstract typesBits,Aggregate, andData, and the aggregate typesBundleandVec.The Chisel package is a compatibility layer that attempts to provide chisel2 compatibility in chisel3.
Utility objects and methods are found in the
utilpackage.The
testerspackage defines the basic interface for chisel testers.
