class Signal(Value):
"""A `Value` that can change
The `Signal` object represents a value that is expected to change
in the circuit. It does exactly what Verilog's `wire` and
`reg` and VHDL's `signal` do.
A `Signal` can be indexed to access a subset of its bits. Negative
indices (`signal[-1]`) and the extended Python slicing notation
(`signal[start:stop:step]`) are supported.
The indeces 0 and -1 are the least and most significant bits
respectively.
Parameters
----------
bits_sign : int or tuple
Either an integer `bits` or a tuple `(bits, signed)`
specifying the number of bits in this `Signal` and whether it is
signed (can represent negative values). `signed` defaults to
`False`.
name : str or None
Name hint for this signal. If `None` (default) the name is
inferred from the variable name this `Signal` is assigned to.
Name collisions are automatically resolved by prepending
names of objects that contain this `Signal` and by
appending integer sequences.
variable : bool
Deprecated.
reset : int
Reset (synchronous) or default (combinatorial) value.
When this `Signal` is assigned to in synchronous context and the
corresponding clock domain is reset, the `Signal` assumes the
given value. When this `Signal` is unassigned in combinatorial
context (due to conditional assignments not being taken),
the `Signal` assumes its `reset` value. Defaults to 0.
name_override : str or None
Do not use the inferred name but the given one.
min : int or None
max : int or None
If `bits_sign` is `None`, the signal bit width and signedness are
determined by the integer range given by `min` (inclusive,
defaults to 0) and `max` (exclusive, defaults to 2).
