Built-in FIFO Support
Virtex-4 FPGA User Guide

A large percentage of FPGA designs use block RAMs to implement FIFOs. In the Virtex-4
architecture, dedicated logic in the block RAM enables users to easily implement
synchronous or asynchronous FIFOs. This eliminates the need for additional CLB logic for
counter, comparator, or status flag generation, and uses just one block RAM resource per
FIFO. Both standard and first-word fall-through (FWFT) modes are supported.
The supported configurations are 4K x 4, 2K x 9, 1K x 18, and 512 x 36.
The block RAM can be configured as first-in/first-out (FIFO) memory with common or
independent read and write clocks. Port A of the block RAM is used as a FIFO read port,
and Port B is a FIFO write port. Data is read from the FIFO on the rising edge of read clock
and written to the FIFO on the rising edge of write clock. Independent read and write port
width selection is not supported in FIFO mode without the aid of external CLB logic.
The FIFO offers a very simple user interface. The design relies on free-running write and
read clocks, of identical or different frequencies up to the specified maximum frequency
limit. The design avoids any ambiguity, glitch, or metastable problems, even when the two
frequencies are completely unrelated.
The write operation is synchronous, writing the data word available at DI into the FIFO
whenever WREN is active a setup time before the rising WRCLK edge.
The read operation is also synchronous, presenting the next data word at DO whenever the
RDEN is active one setup time before the rising RDCLK edge.
Data flow control is automatic; the user need not be concerned about the block RAM
addressing sequence, although WRCOUNT and RDCOUNT are also brought out, if
needed for unusual applications.
The user must, however, observe the FULL and EMPTY flags, and stop writing when
FULL is High, and stop reading when EMPTY is High. If these rules are violated, an active
WREN while FULL is High will activate the WRERR flag, and an active RDEN while
EMPTY is High will activate the RDERR flag. In either violation, the FIFO content will,
however, be preserved, and the address counters will stay valid.
