2.5.7. DSP Implementation

When you maximize the packing of DSP blocks, you reduce Logic Utilization, power consumption, and increase efficiency. The HDL coding style grants you control of the DSP resources available in the FPGA.

Implement Multiplier + Accumulator in 1 DSP

always @ (posedge clk)
begin
   if (ena)
   begin
      dataout <= dataa * datab + datac * datad;
   end
end

Implement multiplication in 2 DSPs and the adder in LABs

always @ (posedge clk)
begin
   if (ena)
   begin
      mult1 <= dataa * datab;
      mult2 <= datac * datad;
   end
end
always @(posedge clk)
begin
   if (ena)
   begin
      dataout <= mult1 + mult2
   end
end
