Vivado 2014.3 and later - BRAM and FIFO UNIFAST models have been removed

描述

In Vivado 2014.3 and later releases, BRAM and FIFO models are not included in the UNIFAST simulation library:

<Vivado_Install_Dir>/data/vhdl(verilog)/src/unifast.

解决方案

A number of issues have been reported with UNIFAST BRAM and FIFO models when they are involved in GT based design. 

The limitation of features supported in fast BRAM/FIFO models versus the full models can make it difficult to take advantage of the simulation run time speed-up for GT.

One example is where the PCIe IP Example Design is using RAMB36E1 in a mode that is not supported by the fast model.


CLKARDCLK and CLKBWRCLK of RAMB36E1 are driven by a synchronous clock.

There is no sync clocks/collision support in the UNIFAST library for RAMB36E1. 

Therefore if "-L unifast" is enabled, simulation fails with a time out error.



Because BRAM and FIFO UNIFAST models are rarely used and the runtime gain is less than 50% on these models, they have been removed from the list of UNIFAST models.


Please refer to each release of (UG900) Vivado Design Suite User Guide: Logic Simulation for a list of UNIFAST library models and their feature differences from the full models.
