6418 - FIFO for Nexus FPGAs: How does the three FIFO_DC Controller Implementation differs from each other?

1. Controller Implementation = Area-Optimized (HW):
Uses a Hardened FIFO controller + Hardened Memory Block for data storage.

2. Controller Implementation =Feature-Rich (LUT) ; Implementation type = EBR:
Uses a Fabric-implemented FIFO controller + Hardened Memory Block for data storage.

3. Controller Implementation =Feature-Rich (LUT) ; Implementation type = LUT:

Uses a Fabric-implemented FIFO controller + LUT-based Memory Block for data storage.

Description: The IPexpress tool within Lattice development software allows user to generate FIFO_DC using Embedded Block Ram (EBR) or distributed memory. During the generation of the FIFO_DC module, there are options to use output registers, and/or ...
2631 - ECP3/FIFO_DC: What's the usage of Bus Ordering Style when using FIFO_DC of Lattice IPExpress which has different data width between write and read port?
FIFO_DC is a flexible IP which allows user to translate bus size from write side to read side. Some examples are given to explain how to select Bus Ordering Style. In the case when write data width is 36 bits and read width is 18 bits. 1. Big Endian ...

Description: The result for the hold analysis report is not what we expected for the provided pdc constraint under eval. This is due to the use of -start. Solution: Replacing this -start with -setup or by just removing it will fix the issue. ...
