DDR3 Core - sub optimal timing warning

Hi,

 

I have created a DDR3 core using MIG and the translate and map stages produce the following warning:


WARNING:Pack:2143 - The function generator
   "ddr3combinedBankFIFO_1/banks[0].rep_false.Bank0/MEM/MEM_FETOP0_14R_7CL_GEN.MEM/XST_GND" failed to merge with F7 multiplexer
   "ddr3combinedBankFIFO_1/banks[0].rep_false.Bank0/MEM/MEM_FETOP0_14R_7CL_GEN.M
   EM/xilinxWrapperInst/XIL_DDR3_IF/u_mem_intfc/mc0/bank_mach0/bank_cntrl_inst[0
   ].bank0/bank_state0/rtc3".  There are more than two MUXF7 wide function
   muxes.
     The design will exhibit suboptimal timing.

 

Has anyone seen this before? Would you be able to help me understand what I might be doing wrong here?

 

Thanks and Regards,

 

Sanka.

Re: DDR3 Core - sub optimal timing warning

MIG will generate very different controller designs for each of the different FPGA device families.

 

  • What device family are you targeting?
  • What revision of MIG (or ISE) are you using?

Summary:
1. Read the manual or user guide. Have you read the manual? Can you find the manual?
2. Search the forums (and search the web) for similar topics.
3. Do not post the same question on multiple forums.
4. Do not post a new topic or question on someone else's thread, start a new thread!
5. Students: Copying code is not the same as learning to design.
6 "It does not work" is not a question which can be answered. Provide useful details (with webpage, datasheet links, please).
7. You are not charged extra fees for comments in your code.
8. I am not paid for forum posts. If I write a good post, then I have been good for nothing.

Re: DDR3 Core - sub optimal timing warning

This sort of warning is quite common, and usually you can ignore it if your

design meets timing.  Just make sure that the path being mentioned in

the warnings is properly constrained.
