Load ignored while count enable is low · case 01

A synchronous load issued with enable low does not change the counter.

Verified by executionVariant 1 · 7 checks per implementationDownload source bundle ↓JSON ↗

ROOT CAUSE

Load is qualified by the count enable.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Load unconditionally, with priority over counting.

Unsuccessful approach: Loading and then also counting in the same edge overshoots the loaded value.

Case contract

Input [m, q0, ops]: ops per clock [load, value, en, up]. Before the edge tc = en==1 and ((up==1 and q==m-1) or (up==0 and q==0)). At the edge load==1 sets q = value mod m (load has priority and ignores en); else en==1 counts up or down modulo m. Return [q after edge, tc] per clock.

Why this case matters

Counters are the most common sequential primitive; wrap, load priority and terminal-count gating are recurring simulation-model bugs.

Verification & scope

A deterministic bounded teaching model of one simulator rule set; the contract is stipulated and is not a claim of conformance to any HDL standard or commercial simulator. This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.
