Sample behavioral waveforms for design file pasaadc_ram.vhd

The following waveforms show the behavior of altsyncram megafunction for the chosen set of parameters in design pasaadc_ram.vhd . For the purpose of this simulation, the contents of the memory at the start of the sample waveforms is assumed to be ( ..FFF0, ..FFF1, ..FFF2, ..FFF3, ..FFF4, ...). The design pasaadc_ram.vhd has one read port and one write port. The read port has 512 words of 32 bits each and the write port has 1024 words of 16 bits each. The ram block type of the design is AUTO . The output of the read port is registered by rdclock.

Fig. 1 : Wave showing read operation.

The above waveform shows the behavior of the design under normal read conditions. The read happens at the rising edge of the enabled clock cycle. The output from the RAM is undefined until after the first rising edge of the read clock.

Fig. 2 : Waveform showing write operation

The above waveform shows the behavior of the design under normal write conditions. The write cycle is assumed to be from the rising edge of the enabled clock in which wren is high till the rising edge of the next clock cycle. In DUAL_PORT mode, when the write happens at the same address as the one being read in the other port, the read output is unknown. Actual write into the RAM happens at the rising edge or falling edge of the write clock, depending on whether the RAM blocks are assigned to M-RAM or not. In the sample waveforms, they are shown to be on the falling edge of the write clock.
