Ddfr

Description:

The user can use double data rate input/output using NanoXplore macro cells in the design code.

For input double data rate, macro cell NX_IDDFR generates 2 single data rate from 1 double data rate.

For output double data rate, macro cell NX_ODDFR generates 1 double data rate from 1 single data rate.

Description:

The user can make operations using NanoXplore DSP macro cells in the design code.

...

  • Using a low-skew dedicated complex pad (highly recommended)

  • Using a simple/complex pad and buffer in global_lowskew modeCommon to System Converter (CSC)

  • Using a simple/complex pad and buffer in local_lowskew modeUsing a simple/complex pad connected to a WFG (not recommended)connected to a WFG

Using low-skew dedicated pads reduces clock skew delays in order to reach best performances during Static Timing Analysis.

Global_lowskew mode has to be used in case of registers from different tiles are on low-skew signal destination. Otherwise, if registers are in the same tile, it is enough to use local_lowskew For NG-MEDIUM/NG-LARGE, CSC is instantiated thanks to NX_BD in global_lowskew mode.

For NG-ULTRA, CSC is instantiated thanks to NX_GCK in CSC mode.

SpacewireTiming

Description:

The user must be able to get all needed timing in case of recovery clock like Spacewire one.

Spacewire recovery clock is generated by a XOR between DIN and SIN, data and strobe input signals.

The architecture looks like the following:

...

Spacewire clock creation must be done as follows as the tool will separate it in 2 clock signals with one inverted.

Code Block
breakoutModewide
        p.createClock(target=getRegisterClock('din_r_reg'), name='input_xor_rising', period=10.0, rising=0.0, falling=5.0)
        p.createClock(target=getRegisterClock('din_f_reg'), name='input_xor_falling', period=10.0, rising=0.0, falling=5.0)

However, in order to get timings before the XOR output, STA must be launched without these clock creation constraints.

Option: There is one option to check the impact of this constraint:

  • No option: no clock creation.

  • CreateClock: Both clocks are created.

 

NanoXmap check: After project launching, the user can get all needed timing paths in timing log files.

  • No option: no clock creation.
