MIG Virtex-6 DDR2/DDR3 - Capture Logic Placement Requirements

描述

The MIG Virtex-6 DDR2/DDR3 design uses an internally generated clock to capture the data on DQ during reads. In previous MIG designs (i.e., Virtex-5 DDR2), the DQS strobe was used to capture data. Capturing data with an internally generated clock is beneficial because it is a true free-running clock and has no pre-/post-amble glitches as DQS does. The MIG Virtex-6 FPGA design uses two clocks in the data capture of a DQS byte:
  • Capture Clock
  • Resynchronization Clock
This article addresses the architectural and placement requirements for the capture logic.

Placement:
  • One capture clock is used per DQS byte group.
  • Each capture clock requires an OSERDES/IODELAY and BUFIO for each DQS byte group.
  • In order to use these IODELAY and BUFIO elements, a Clock Capable (CCIO) site must be prohibited and logic within the prohibited site locked for capture logic usage.

Constraints:
The MIG output locks the required number of CCIO pins and associated IODELAY and OSERDES sites for the interface generated. These LOCs are contained in the output User Constraints File (design.ucf). Following is an example for a single DQS byte groups capture logic placement:

CONFIG PROHIBIT = E39;
INST "u_memc_ui_top/u_mem_intfc/phy_top0/u_phy_read/u_phy_rdclk_gen/gen_ck_cpt[0].u_oserdes_cpt"
LOC = "OLOGIC_X1Y183";
INST "u_memc_ui_top/u_mem_intfc/phy_top0/u_phy_read/u_phy_rdclk_gen/gen_ck_cpt[0].u_odelay_cpt"
LOC = "IODELAY_X1Y183";

By default, MIG uses Single Region Clock Capable I/O (SRCCIO) sites because all of the related logic data group logic exists within the same bank. Multi-Region CCIO sites can also be used. If it is desired to move the Capture Logic prohibits and site LOCs, users should modify the sites within the output UCF and run the updated UCF through the Verify UCF and Update UCF and Design tool.

While the design does not capture data using DQS, it does monitor the phase of DQS during reads to account for any phase shift due to voltage/temperature changes. If the phase varies, the capture clock phase is adjusted using the MMCM Phase Shift.

Because DQS is not used to capture data, it only needs to be placed on a p/n I/O pair rather then a Clock Capable I/O (CCIO) pair.
