  • Powerplay Power Analysis 8 2013.11.04
    PowerPlay Power Analysis 8 2013.11.04 QII53013 Subscribe Send Feedback The PowerPlay Power Analysis tools allow you to estimate device power consumption accurately. As designs grow larger and process technology continues to shrink, power becomes an increasingly important design consideration. When designing a PCB, you must estimate the power consumption of a device accurately to develop an appropriate power budget, and to design the power supplies, voltage regulators, heat sink, and cooling system. The following figure shows the PowerPlay Power Analysis tools ability to estimate power consumption from early design concept through design implementation. Figure 8-1: PowerPlay Power Analysis From Design Concept Through Design Implementation PowerPlay Early Power Estimator Quartus II PowerPlay Power Analyzer Higher Placement and Simulation Routing Results Results Accuracy Quartus II Design Profile User Input Estimation Design Concept Design Implementation Lower PowerPlay Power Analysis Input For the majority of the designs, the PowerPlay Power Analyzer and the PowerPlay EPE spreadsheet have the following accuracy after the power models are final: • PowerPlay Power Analyzer—±20% from silicon, assuming that the PowerPlay Power Analyzer uses the Value Change Dump File (.vcd) generated toggle rates. • PowerPlay EPE spreadsheet— ±20% from the PowerPlay Power Analyzer results using .vcd generated toggle rates. 90% of EPE designs (using .vcd generated toggle rates exported from PPPA) are within ±30% silicon. The toggle rates are derived using the PowerPlay Power Analyzer with a .vcd file generated from a gate level simulation representative of the system operation. © 2013 Altera Corporation.

  • Performed the Most Often. in FPGA Design Flow, Functional and Gate
    performed the most often. In FPGA design flow, functional and gate-level timing simulation is typically performed when designers suspect that there might be a mismatch between RTL and functional or gate-level timing simulation results, which can lead to an incorrect design. The mismatch can be caused for several reasons discussed in more detail in Tip #59. Note that the nomenclature of simulation types is not consistent. The same name, for instance “gate-level simulation”, can have slightly different meaning in simulation flows of different FPGA vendors. The situation is even more confusing in ASIC simulation flows, which have many more different simulation types, such as transistor-level, and dynamic simulation. The following figure shows simulation types designers can perform during Xilinx FPGA synthesis and physical implementation process. Figure 1: Simulation types Xilinx FPGA designers can perform simulation after each level of design transformation from the original RTL to the bitstream. The following example is a 12-bit OR gate implemented in Verilog. module sim_types(input [11:0] user_in, output user_out); assign user_out = |user_in; endmodule XST post-synthesis simulation model is implemented using LUT6 and LUT2 primitives, which are parts of Xilinx UNISIMS RTL simulation library. wire out, out1_14; LUT6 #( .INIT ( 64'hFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFE )) out1 ( .I0(user_in[3]), .I1(user_in[2]), .I2(user_in[5]), .I3(user_in[4]), .I4(user_in[7]), .I5(user_in[6]), .O(out)); LUT6 #( .INIT ( 64'hFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFE )) out2 ( .I0(user_in[9]), .I1(user_in[8]), .I2(user_in[11]), .I3(user_in[10]), .I4(user_in[1]), .I5(user_in[0]), .O(out1_14)); LUT2 #( .INIT ( 4'hE )) out3 ( .I0(out), .I1(out1_14), .O(user_out) ); Post-synthesis simulation model can be generated using the following command: $ netgen -w -ofmt verilog -sim sim.ngc post_synthesis.v Post-translate simulation model is implemented using X_LUT6 and X_LUT2 primitives, which are parts of Xilinx SIMPRIMS simulation library.

  • The Verilog PLI Is Dead (Maybe) -- Long Live the Systemverilog
    The Verilog PLI Is Dead (maybe) Long Live The SystemVerilog DPI! Stuart Sutherland Sutherland HDL, Inc. [email protected] ABSTRACT In old England, when one monarch died a successor immediately took the throne. Hence the chant, “The king is dead—long live the king!”. The Verilog Programming Language Interface (PLI) appears to be undergoing a similar succession, with the advent of the new SystemVerilog Direct Programming Interface (DPI). Is the old Verilog PLI dead, and the SystemVerilog DPI the new king? This paper addresses the question of whether engineers should continue to use the Verilog PLI, or switch to the new SystemVerilog DPI. The paper will show that the DPI can simplify interfacing to the C language, and has capabilities that are not possible with the PLI. However, the Verilog PLI also has unique capabilities that cannot be done using the DPI.
