Must of the bugs I've found, were typos or other blunders that made me look plain stupid. There were one or two, though, I learned a lot from. Here is one that took me a month to find.

I wrote a task to feed test vectors to my design, however, I realized some differences between "task" and the normal state machines I used to do. One sample code below, I am expecting the the signal "trd_sample" to be delayed by one cycle of "trc", i.e. 2nd posedge of trc. However, why does the simulation shows on the first posedge of trc? I have put the modelsim waveform here. http://img234.imageshack.us/img234/5034/confusedtask7bg.jpg Thank you in advance. module sim; reg clk; reg rst_n; reg trw; reg [3:0] trd; reg trc; reg [3:0] trd_sample; always #5 clk <= ~ clk; initial begin clk <= 1'b0; rst_n <= 1'b1; #1 rst_n <= 1'b0; #2 rst_n <= 1'b1; tx_in; $stop(); end task tx_in; integer i, j; begin @ (posedge clk); @ (posedge clk); trc <= 1'b0; trw <= 1'b0; trd <= 4'h0; @ (posedge clk); trc <= 1'b1; trw <= 1'b1; trd <= 4'hA; @ (posedge clk); trc <= 1'b0; @ (posedge clk); trc <= 1'b1; trd <= 4'h9; @ (posedge clk); trc <= 1'b0; @ (posedge clk); trc <= 1'b1; trd <= 4'h8; @ (posedge clk); trc <= 1'b0; @ (posedge clk); trc <= 1'b1; trd <= 4'h7; @ (posedge clk); @ (posedge clk); @ (posedge clk); @ (posedge clk); end endtask always @ (posedge trc or negedge rst_n) begin if (~rst_n) trd_sample <= 4'h0; else begin if (trw) trd_sample <= trd; end end endmoduleArticle: 87578
Hi all ! I would like to make a Spartan 3 FPGA to reset and reprogram itself from a platform prom after I have reprogrammed the prom using JTAG boundery-scan. Is there any instruction I can send to the FPGA or the prom with JTAG to tell the FPGA to reprogram ? Usually this is done at power-on, but in my case, I can't power-off/on the whole system to make the FPGA to get a new firmware, and I can't reprogram the FPGA directly because it's required for the JTAG operation. Thank you UxelloArticle: 87579

We are doing similar thing where FPGA contains PCI logic and JTAG port to its own platform flash. So the platform flash is reprogrammed from JTAG interface that is in the FPGA and then same FPGA is reconfigured with new bitstream. unfortunatly we are using XCF08P and xilinx has some issues with it, so we can reprogram the XCF08P but FPGA is not getting configured. We have opened 4 or 5 WebCases on this matter but not getting much help. The first WebCase we opened - the response from Xilixn was: - well there has been not much interest in XCFxxP IEEE1532 BSDL files, so we have not made them. They are scheduled for 2006. You have to wait. I assume you are using XCFxxS so hopefully you are doing better with it, to my knowledge there are less or no problems with XCFxxS JTAG Commands to force fpga load for XCFxxS CONFIG (11101110) XCFxxP XSC_CONFIG (0000000011101110) always look at the BSDL files in Xilinx\xcfp\data\ !!

It seems to me that much of this discussion is tempered by the size of the organization that each participant is involved in. For virtually all my career, I have worked (and had ownership in) small companies. I think this case, the marketing & engineering aspects of the projects tend to be more naturally coupled together and management is not likely to be pointy haired. In most of my larger projects (which for me might involve 4-5 people), we usually had a fairly good vision of what we wanted to accomplish when we started, but at the same time, we never over specified a project from the start. Nevertheless, we rarely built lots of small incremental prototypes, it takes too long. We used kind of a successive approximation method that was drove to the production version as soon as possible. Sure, we might have prototyped small segments as needed. In most projects, the collective talent already knows how to do 80 - 90% of the project before it even starts (or knows where the answers lie). Dotting every i and crossing every t, is very slow. You also tend to create a number of very good useless pieces that you discard anyway. If the project takes too long, the solution may no longer be relevant. I think the key to the successful projects, that I worked on was that everyone understood the basic vision, and there was always a architect on the project that understood the broader issues. You can always find a better way of solving a problem the next time. Sometimes, its because you learned something from the previous project, sometimes its new components (like a new DSP chip), sometimes its economics, etc. One of the challenges for the project leader (who in our case was usually the architect), was to access when to change course in the middle of a project and when to stay the course (and sometimes shoot the engineers). I have killed projects in the middle and almost completely started over. This is painful, but usually, the next attempt is a lot better. Probably, the most successful project I was involved in started with a well defined goal, that had 2.5 months to bring from idea to production (including deliverable products). The timing was forced by a trade show. We designed everything as a production solution (extruded housings, injection molded bezels, custom circuit boards, firmware, etc). We didn't even start the firmware until the last week before the tradeshow. This was actually part of the plan since timing was everything. The team consisted of 5 people. Suffice to say, we were the most successful exhibitor at the tradeshow. We had people standing three deep into the exhibit floor most of the show. After about a year, we had captured about 80% of our market (we had two competitors when we launched our product at the tradeshow). If we had followed the build a little, test, build a little more, we would not have succeeded since time to market would have let the opportunity slip away. -- Al Clark Danville Signal Processing, Inc. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Purveyors of Fine DSP Hardware and other Cool Stuff Available at http://www.danvillesignal.com "Peter K." <p.kootsookos@iolfree.ie> wrote in news:1122341607.028547.67040@g49g2000cwa.googlegroups.com: > Randy Yates wrote: > >> I'm not familiar with the spiral/agile model, but you'll have to >> do some pretty fancy talking to convince me to agree that something >> other than a strict development cycle flow is going to produce a >> better system in the long run. > > Oh, it's still a strict development cycle... if anything, it's more > strict than the big design up front.

Mike, Try reading XST constraints guide and also XST user's guide. There is a very nice explanation of this stuff. Concerning the problems in your timing analysis, try pipelining your design and use timing-driven packing. But if you can paste a few timing violations here, we can help understanding them.

+HI, Is it possible to create a comparator structure that has a priority structure eg My system has more than 65% cases where the winner is determined by the msb(matlab simulations).I am trying to create an asynchronous system, so early completion would be beneficial for my system.

Hi guys, Has anyone tried instantiating IOBUF in a Spartan-3E device? The IOBUF primitive for S3E has two new attributes namely IBUF_DELAY_VALUE and IFD_DELAY_VALUE: IOBUF_inst : IOBUF generic map ( DRIVE => 12, IBUF_DELAY_VALUE => "0", IFD_DELAY_VALUE => "AUTO", IOSTANDARD => "DEFAULT", SLEW => "SLOW") port map ( O => output, IO => input_output, I => input, T => enable ); These two new attributes don't seem to be recognised by PAR, since translate generates these warnings: WARNING:NgdBuild:486 - Attribute "IBUF_DELAY_VALUE" is not allowed on symbol "IOBUF_inst" of type "IOBUF". This attribute will be ignored. WARNING:NgdBuild:486 - Attribute "IFD_DELAY_VALUE" is not allowed on symbol "IOBUF_inst" of type "IOBUF". This attribute will be ignored. Thus, signals don't get routed. I am using ISE 7.1.03 which as far as I am aware is the latest release. Any ideas what is wrong? Best regards GeorgeArticle: 87589
Hey, I just got a board with a virtex4 and there is a LVDS connection on it and another LVDS input bank where the clock oscillators are connected to. that bank is a Vcco=3.3V bank but has a 2.5V LVDS connection, but since http://www.xilinx.com/xlnx/xil_ans_display.jsp?iLanguageID=1&iCountryID=1&ge tPagePath=16830 says this is not a problem i hope this is not the problem. Now the problem is that when i download the code and boot chipscope analyzer, the analyzer says it does not find any core (although there is a ICON/ILA core in it) and when i check with fpga editor there is indeed a ICON/ILA core. So that is why i thought that the clock generation is a problem (although the clk's are generated since i can see them at the input pad of the fpga)? especially since i cannot get anything out of the fpga, everything remains inactive for some reason... i also get this warning: ARNING:Xst:1474 - Core <vio> was not loaded for <i_vio> as one or more ports did not line up with component declaration. Declared input port <control<35>> was not found in the core. Please make sure that component declaration ports are consistent with the core ports including direction and bus-naming conventions.

Please make sure that component declaration ports are consistent with the core ports including direction and bus-naming conventions. but since i've seen this warning in the past and chipscope worked i don't think this is the problem. I hope some of you know where i can start looking since for now i don't have a clue ... kind regards, YttriumArticle: 87590

Of course if you are trying to sell a ip core in source form that is largely based on the GPL source code than that would not end very well. But if you use open source IP cores in some ASIC without publishing the sources, then nothing happens - because no one will know whats inside the asic and as there is no party that could sue you or has even interest in doing so. sure check it out with some good lawer to makes sure there are no chances you get sued.
