VHDL 合成具有多个输出的 Block Ram

Question

if rising_edge(CLK_100Mhz) then
  if w_ram = '1' then
    for X in 0 to 6 loop
        for Y in 0 to 6 loop
            DataO(X)(Y)(0) <= Memory(X)(Y)(Address);
            DataO(X)(Y)(1) <= Memory(X)(Y)(Address+1);
            DataO(X)(Y)(2) <= Memory(X)(Y)(Address+2);
            DataO(X)(Y)(3) <= Memory(X)(Y)(Address+3);
            Memory(X)(Y)(Address) <= DataI(X)(Y)(0);
        end loop;
    end loop;
  w_ram <= '0';
end if;
end if;

我需要为我的数据密集型项目使用 block ram。对于每个给定的 X、Y，这会用作 1 个输入、4 个输出 block ，还是会为每个给定的 X、Y 创建 4 个 block ？这也行吗？我正在使用 Xilinx Zynq-7000 FPGA。

谢谢。

我猜您希望 Xilinx 综合工具推断出多个非对称 block RAM。 Xilinx 有示例代码来推断一个 RAM，可以在

http://www.xilinx.com/support/documentation/sw_manuals/xilinx13_2/xst_v6s6.pdf

写端口为8位宽，256位深，读端口为32位宽，64位深。这是来自上述链接的代码:

-- Asymmetric port RAM
-- Port A is 256x8-bit write-only
-- Port B is 64x32-bit read-only

library ieee;
use ieee.std_logic_1164.all;
use ieee.std_logic_unsigned.all;
use ieee.std_logic_arith.all;

entity asymmetric_ram_1a is
generic (
    WIDTHA      : integer := 8;
    SIZEA       : integer := 256;
    ADDRWIDTHA  : integer := 8;
    WIDTHB      : integer := 32;
    SIZEB       : integer := 64;
    ADDRWIDTHB  : integer := 6
);
port (
    clkA    : in    std_logic;
    clkB    : in    std_logic;
    weA     : in    std_logic;
    enA     : in    std_logic;
    enB     : in    std_logic;
    addrA   : in    std_logic_vector(ADDRWIDTHA-1 downto 0);
    addrB   : in    std_logic_vector(ADDRWIDTHB-1 downto 0);
    diA     : in    std_logic_vector(WIDTHA-1 downto 0);
    doB     :   out std_logic_vector(WIDTHB-1 downto 0)
);
end asymmetric_ram_1a;

architecture behavioral of asymmetric_ram_1a is

function max(L, R: INTEGER) return INTEGER is
begin
    if L > R then
        return L;
    else
        return R;
    end if;
end;

function min(L, R: INTEGER) return INTEGER is
begin
    if L < R then
        return L;
    else
        return R;
    end if;
end;

constant minWIDTH : integer := min(WIDTHA,WIDTHB);
constant maxWIDTH : integer := max(WIDTHA,WIDTHB);
constant maxSIZE  : integer := max(SIZEA,SIZEB);
constant RATIO    : integer := maxWIDTH / minWIDTH;

type ramType is array (0 to maxSIZE-1) of std_logic_vector(minWIDTH-1 downto 0);
signal ram : ramType := (others => (others => '0'));
signal readB : std_logic_vector(WIDTHB-1 downto 0):= (others => '0');
signal regB : std_logic_vector(WIDTHB-1 downto 0):= (others => '0');

begin
process (clkA)
begin
    if rising_edge(clkA) then
        if enA = '1' then
            if weA = '1' then
                ram(conv_integer(addrA)) <= diA;
            end if;
        end if;
    end if;
end process;

process (clkB)
begin
    if rising_edge(clkB) then
        if enB = '1' then
            readB(minWIDTH-1 downto 0)
            <= ram(conv_integer(addrB&conv_std_logic_vector(0,2)));
            readB(2*minWIDTH-1 downto minWIDTH)
            <= ram(conv_integer(addrB&conv_std_logic_vector(1,2)));
            readB(3*minWIDTH-1 downto 2*minWIDTH)
            <= ram(conv_integer(addrB&conv_std_logic_vector(2,2)));
            readB(4*minWIDTH-1 downto 3*minWIDTH)
            <= ram(conv_integer(addrB&conv_std_logic_vector(3,2)));
        end if;
    regB <= readB;
    end if;
end process;

doB <= regB;

end behavioral;

这是确认 XST 推断出不对称内存的综合报告的摘录。
