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 />
