PLL in Virtex-4 FPGA PMCD Legacy Mode
PLL in Virtex-4 FPGA PMCD Legacy Mode
Virtex-5 devices do not have Phase-Matched Clock Dividers (PMCDs). The Virtex-5 FPGA
PLL supports the Virtex-4 FPGA PMCD mode of operation. To take advantage of the
inherently more powerful features of the Virtex-5 FPGA PLL, Xilinx recommends
redesigning Virtex-4 FPGA PMCDs by implementing PLLs directly. The difference
between the Virtex-5 FPGA PLL and the Virtex-4 FPGA PMCD block in Virtex-4 FPGA
PMCD legacy mode is that only two clock inputs are supported in the Virtex-5 device
implementation. The Virtex-4 device implementation supported up to four clock inputs. If
four clock inputs must be used, then two PLLs can be put into PMCD mode. In this case,
delay matching is not optimal.
shows the Virtex-4 FPGA PMCD primitive implemented using a PLL. A PLL
can not be used as a PLL if it is already being used as a PMCD. To design-in the Virtex-5
FPGA PMCD functionality, instantiate a Virtex-4 FPGA PMCD primitive. ISE software
maps the Virtex-4 FPGA PMCD primitive into a Virtex-5 FPGA PLL.
shows the port mapping between Virtex-5 FPGA PLL in PMCD legacy mode and
the Virtex-4 FPGA PMCD port names.
