Can I use the "conv_integer" (for 24 bits) twice in the same line (in the architecture) and to use the data immediately in the next clock cycle (in the process)? On modelSim it looks good but I'm afraid the in the real worlds, I could miss it in the up coming cycle... Idan :(
at the end of the day, the integer is just just bits. the conv_integer (I would go on about how conv_integer is not part of a standard package, but hey ho, you wont listen). is basically free. Its more to do with types in VHDL.
