Lattice Diamond: EBR: The difference between what you calculate for the number of EBR blocks required and what is eventually used to construct the memory is caused by the implemented hardware architecture having excess memory space available for use. For example, you could increase the width or depth some and not see any increase in the used memory space, because it is available for use, but the design requirements didn't use all the memory available.
