New Blocks
DSP48 Macro 2.0
New block now available in System Generator with the following features:
• The primary change is that the DSP48 Macro block is now supported by an
underlying LogiCORE rather than being a System Generator basic block.
• Expanded instruction functionality coverage with the addition of 77 new opcode
instructions, bringing the opcode count from 72 to 149.
• Additional pipelining capability with the addition of Opmode, M Reg, and P Reg
Stages. The Macro supports three latency modes (Automatic, By Tier, and Expert).
Automatic and tiered are square latency models, the difference being that automatic
gives a fully pipelined model where as tiered allows for finer control.
• Reset & Enable Ports: DSP Macro v2.0 provides a global sclr (rst in System Generator)
and ce (en in System Generator) and does not provide access to individual enable and
reset ports of various registers in the XtremeDSP slice.
• Support for Pre-Adder in Virtex
®-6, Spartan®-6 and Spartan-3A DSP families,
including the Pre-Adder D Port.
• Support for various rounding capabilities.
• Now support up to 64 instructions, up from 8 in the previous System Generator block.
