Understanding and Resolving "Binding Parameter to Array Value" Errors in Verilog

The "Binding Parameter to Array Value" error in Verilog arises when you try to assign an array (or a part of an array) to a parameter during module instantiation or within a `defparam` statement. Verilog parameters are meant to be single, scalar values, not collections like arrays. This error commonly occurs when you attempt to configure a module with multiple settings or data through a parameter, especially when the desired configuration is naturally expressed as an array.

Let's delve deeper into why this happens, how to identify it, and various methods to resolve it, complete with code examples.

*Why This Error Occurs:*

Verilog parameters, defined using the `parameter` keyword, are meant to be constant values. They are resolved at compile time*. This means their values need to be known *before simulation begins. Arrays, on the other hand, are collections of values. Assigning an array directly to a parameter violates this fundamental principle because it introduces a dynamic aspect that parameters cannot handle.

Consider these scenarios:

1. *Module Instantiation:*



The intent here might be to pass configuration data from `top_module`'s `my_array` to `my_module`'s `MY_PARAM`. However, `MY_PARAM` expects a single integer, not an array.

2. *`defparam` Statement:*



`defparam` suffers from the same issue. It's used to override parameters at compile time, but it can only assign scalar values.

*Identifying the Error:*

The error message usually points directly to the line where you attempt the invalid assignment:

*Typical Error Message (Simulator Dependent):*
"Binding parameter 'MY_PARAM' to array value is not allowed."
"Error: Illegal parameter assignment. Array is not a scalar."

*Solutions and Workarounds:*

Several strategies can be employed to overcome this limitation. The best approach depends on your specific design requirem ...
