Additional Block RAM Features in Virtex-5 Devices
Optional Output Registers
The optional output registers improve design performance by eliminating routing delay to
the CLB flip-flops for pipelined operation. An independent clock and clock enable input is
provided for these output registers. As a result the output data registers hold the value
independent of the input register operation.
shows the optional output register.
Independent Read and Write Port Width Selection
Each block RAM port has control over data width and address depth (aspect ratio). The
true dual-port block RAM in Virtex-5 FPGAs extends this flexibility to Read and Write
where each individual port can be configured with different data bit widths. For example,
port A can have a 36-bit Read width and a 9-bit Write width, and port B can have a 18-bit
Read width and a 36-bit Write width. See
“Block RAM Attributes,” page 128
If the Read port width differs from the Write port width, and is configured in
WRITE_FIRST mode, then DO shows valid new data for all the enabled write bytes. The
DO port outputs the original data stored in memory for all not enabled bytes.
Independent Read and Write port width selection increases the efficiency of implementing
a content addressable memory (CAM) in block RAM. This option is available for all
Virtex-5 FPGA true dual-port RAM port sizes and modes.
