2.1i COREGEN, C_IP2: Virtex Variable Parallel Multiplier model shows only a 1-cycle latency in Verilog behavioral simulation


Record #8233

Product Family: Software

Product Line: LogiCore

Product Part: Coregen IP Modules

Problem Title:

2.1i COREGEN, C_IP2: Virtex Variable Parallel Multiplier model shows only a 1-cycle latency in Verilog behavioral simulation



Problem Description:
Urgency: standard

General Description:
The Virtex Variable Parallel Multiplier may show only 1 cycle of latency in Verilog behavioral simulation.

The problem has been tracked to a mismatch in the number and order of parameters passed from the Verilog .VEO instantiation template to the multiplier's Verilog behavioral model.


Solution 1:

As a workaround, you can generate a post-NGDBUILD gate level simulation netlist
using the Core's EDIF implementation netlist, as described in (Xilinx Solution #8065)

A fix will be available in the C_IP4 update scheduled for December 1999 release. Please check this web page for availability of this release:
