2.6.5. Selecting Read-During-Write Output Choices

  • Single-port RAM supports only same-port read-during-write. The clock mode must be either single clock mode or input/output clock mode.
  • Simple dual-port RAM supports only mixed-port read-during-write. The clock mode must be either single clock mode, or input/output clock mode.
  • True dual-port RAM supports same port read-during-write and mixed-port read-during-write:
    • For same port read-during-write, the clock mode must be either single clock mode, input/output clock mode, or independent clock mode.
    • For mixed port read-during-write, the clock mode must be either single clock mode, or input/output clock mode.
Note: If you are not concerned about the output when read-during-write occurs and want to improve performance, select Don't Care. Selecting Don't Care increases the flexibility in the type of memory block being used if you do not assign block type when you instantiate the memory block.
