Xilinx与Altera FPGA比较系列之一 DSP速度(3)
类别:网文精粹  
 
大家知道,高端的FPGA中都有为数不少的DSP块,里边主要包括一些18X18的乘法器,以及加法器等单元,相邻的DSP往往可以通过专用的连线互连,从而实现滤波器的级联设计,提高滤波器的运行速度。Xilinx和Altera的DSP块有所差别,Xilinx的DSP模块可以做18X18乘法,18X18乘累加运算,18X18乘加运算等,其中累加器可以到48位宽,厂家标称的最高速度位500MHz。Altera的DSP块可以分解成为8X8, 16X16, 32X32块,可以完成乘法,乘累加,乘加等运算,厂家标称的最高速度为450MHz。 下面的表格给出了一些综合结果。 表1 转置形式的FIR滤波器综合结果 FPGA Platform FPGA Type Speed (MHz) Speed (MHz) FPGA Type FPGA Platform Stratix II EP2S90F1020C3 313 165 xc4vsx35-ff668-12 Virtex 4 EP2S90F1020C4 282 154 xc4vsx35-ff668-11 EP2S90F1020C5 240 124 xc4vsx35-ff668-10 表2 直接形式的FIR滤波器综合结果 FPGA Platform FPGA Type Speed (MHz) Speed (MHz) FPGA Type FPGA Platform Stratix II EP2S90F1020C3 195 109 xc4vsx35-ff668-12 Virtex 4 EP2S90F1020C4 169 101 xc4vsx35-ff668-11 EP2S90F1020C5 141 88 xc4vsx35-ff668-10 一些简单的分析: 1. Xilinx之所以速度比Altera慢一个原因可能是ISE综合时可能需要加一些约束才可以达到最佳状态,就这件事情我曾经咨询过Xilinx的应用工程师,她给了我一个使用Synplify综合的结果,速度明显比我使用ISE的好不少。 2. 有关Xilinx的DSP Block,我还试了不少其他的模块,包括简单的乘法器等,但是都不能达到器标称的500MHz,另外,ISE不能支持随意的写法,对代码的风格有一定的要求,比如,需要写成同步reset,这样才能被综合到DSP Block当中。

附件是相应的VHDL代码,欢迎大家讨论。
