Virtex-4 BiDirectional Ports

Jan 23, 2006 1 Replies

How does one properly synthesize and simulate a bidirectional port on the Virtex-4 using ISE 7.1i.



I drafted code from an earlier Spartan 3 design, which synthesized nicely. On the Virtex-4, the T signals is not registered although the block diagram indicates that it could be.



Also, the ISE simulator does not show any output values on the inout ports.



Thanks,

sram_tristate_process:process(sram_clk) begin if( sram_clk'event and sram_clk='1') then if( sram_cam_en_2='1' ) then sram_flash_data


Brad - I also haven't figured out how to simulate a bi-directional port using ISE. The code below is basically what I've used for a bi-directional register.

write_reg: process ( clk ) is begin if rising_edge( clk ) then if reg_sel = '1' and write = '1' then my_reg
