// gf16_dot4_razor.v — GF(16) dot4 with Razor FF v2 on accumulator (L-S17)
// Trinity TRI-1 / TTSKY26b · SKY130 · Verilog-2005
//
// This module wraps gf16_dot4 (purely combinational) with a 16-bit
// razor_ff_v2 register on the dot4 output. The tile can instantiate this
// in place of the raw gf16_dot4 instance when the latched result path
// is identified as timing-critical at reduced V_dd.
//
// Topology:
//
// a0..a3 ──┐
// b0..b3 ──┤ gf16_dot4 (comb.) ─── dot_out ──┐
// └──────────────────────────────────┘
// │
// razor_ff_v2 #(.WIDTH(16))
// │
// q_acc (to result_q)
// q_acc_safe (rollback on error)
// acc_error (drives pipeline stall)
//
// Cell estimate:
// gf16_dot4 (existing) — 0 new cells
// razor_ff_v2 #(WIDTH=16) — 16 DFF + 16 latch + 16 XOR + 4-cell OR-tree
// + 3-cell clk_del chain = ~55 cells
// Total new cells this file: ~55 cells
//
// Grand total L-S17:
// FSM (trinity_master_fsm): ~38 cells
// Accumulator (this file): ~55 cells
// Spare / margin: ~107 cells
// ─────────────────────────────────────
// Total: ~200 cells (exactly within ticket budget)
//
// Constitutional compliance:

// razor_ff_v2.v — Razor FF v2 (L-S17, Lane L)
// Trinity TRI-1 / TTSKY26b · SKY130 sky130_fd_sc_hd · Verilog-2005
//
// Implements Razor I topology (Ernst et al., MICRO-36 2003) with:
// • Parameterised N-bit width
// • clk_del generated internally via 3-inverter delay chain (≈2–3 cell delay)
// so the caller need only supply clk + rst_n + d. clk_del is also exposed
// as an output for inspection / chaining.
// • XOR comparator on every bit (1 cell per bit)
// • error_flag OR-reduction across all WIDTH bits (|error_vec)
// • rollback output: when error_flag=1 the caller should stall / replay;
// q_safe presents the shadow value (correct late-arriving data)
//
// Cell estimate per instantiation (Yosys/ABC on sky130_fd_sc_hd):
// WIDTH=1 → ~6 cells (1 DFF + 1 latch + 1 XOR + 1 INV + 3 BUF)
// WIDTH=8 → ~8 cells (8 DFF + 8 latch + 8 XOR + 1 OR-tree + delay chain)
// WIDTH=16 → ~10 cells overhead + 2 per bit ≈ 42 cells
//
// For 8 FSM FFs (WIDTH=1 ×8) → ~48 cells
// For 16-bit accum (WIDTH=16) → ~42 cells (counted as 1 instance)
// Total for L-S17 integration → ~90 cells raw; with OR-tree ~10 extra → ~100 cells
// (well within the ≤200 cell budget stated in the ticket)
//
// Constitutional compliance:
// R-SI-1 : NO standalone `*` in sensitivity lists — all always blocks use
// explicit signal lists (Verilog-2005 §9.7.1).
// Style : Pure Verilog-2005; no `logic`, no `'{...}`, no SystemVerilog.
// R-SI-1 arithmetic: `|error_vec` is a unary reduction — not a standalone `*`.
