Abstract :
We present a grammar based specification method for hardware synthesis of data communication protocols in which the specification is independent of the port size. Instead, it is used during the synthesis process as a constraint. When the width of the output assignments exceed the chosen output port width, the assignments are split and scheduled over the available states. We present a solution to this problem and results of applying it to some relevant problems
