V2.1i COREGEN, C_IP2: Latency may be incorrect in Virtex Variable Multiplier VHDL behavioral model
Record #6012
Product Family: Software
Product Line: LogiCore
Product Part: Coregen IP Modules
Problem Title:
V2.1i COREGEN, C_IP2: Latency may be incorrect in Virtex Variable Multiplier VHDL
behavioral model
Problem Description:
Urgency: standard
General Description:
The number of cycles of latency modeled by the VHDL behavioral model for the
Virtex Variable Multiplier shipped in C_IP2 may be incorrect.
For example, a multiplier with an 8-bit B input and both pipeline and output registers
is shows a latency of only one clock cycle in simulation. The correct number of cycles is
3 for this case, as indicated in the multiplier datasheet.
Solution 1:
To work around this problem, you can do a post-NGDBUILD functional simulation
instead of a direct behavioral simulation using the CORE Generator models. Refer
to the datasheet for this module for information on the correct number of cycles of latency for
multiplier implementation.
