Chapter 2: Understanding Simulation Components in Vivado<br />
RAMB18E1/RAMB36E1<br />
To reduce the <strong>simulation</strong> runtimes, the fast block RAM <strong>simulation</strong> model has the following<br />
features disabled compared to the full model:<br />
• Error Correction Code (ECC)<br />
• Collision checks<br />
• Cascade mode<br />
FIFO18E1/FIFO36E1<br />
To reduce the <strong>simulation</strong> runtimes, the fast FIFO <strong>simulation</strong> model has the following<br />
features removed from the full model:<br />
• ECC<br />
• Design Rules Check (DRC) for RESET and almostempty and almostfull offset<br />
• Output padding: X for data out, 1 for counters<br />
• First word fall-through<br />
• almostempty and almostfull flags<br />
Note: In some IP, such as FIFO Generator, these signals are mapped as PROG_EMPTY and<br />
PROG_FULL.<br />
DSP48E1<br />
To reduce the <strong>simulation</strong> runtimes, the fast DSP48E1 <strong>simulation</strong> model has the following<br />
features removed from the full model.<br />
• Pattern Detection<br />
• OverFlow/UnderFlow<br />
• DRP interface support<br />
GTHE2_CHANNEL/GTHE2_COMMON<br />
To reduce the <strong>simulation</strong> runtimes, the fast GTHE2 <strong>simulation</strong> model has the following<br />
feature differences:<br />
• GTH links must be synchronous with no Parts Per Million (PPM) rate differences<br />
between the near and far end link partners.<br />
• Latency through the GTH is not cycle accurate with the hardware operation.<br />
