11.5, 12.1 Virtex-6 MMCM - MMCM does not lock after device startup and MMCM reset
描述
In some Virtex-6 designs generated in ISE tools 11.5 or 12.1 containing MMCMs with active LOW resets, the MMCM does not lock.
解决方案
In designs where the user reset is active low, an inverter is required to drive the active HIGH reset pin of the MMCM. In some cases, the inverter is incorrectly optimized out of the design so the MMCM is permanently reset and does not lock.
The workaround is to add "Save Net Flag" or "Keep" constraint on the reset signal (in HDL or in the UCF) and rerun implementation.
NET "*mmcm_reset" KEEP;
or
NET "*mmcm_reset" S;
This issue is also fixed in ISE 12.2 and later versions of software.
