Bidirectional Port Synthesis

HardLogic CircuitDebug

An internal port controller replaces legacy tri-state buses with dedicated input and output paths for modern synthesis.

Expected behavior:

| Dir | WriteData | ReadDataExt | PadOE | PadOut | ReadDataInt | |-------|-------------|---------------|---------|----------|---------------| | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 1 | | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | | 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 1 | | 1 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | | 1 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | | 1 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 1 | | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 |

Simulation shows ReadDataInt = 0 for inputs Dir = 1, WriteData = 1, ReadDataExt = 0. The internal read data fails to reflect the driven output during a write cycle. Inspect the circuit and correct the fault.

Constraints

  • Do not use tri-state buffers.
  • Output PadOE must exactly track Dir.
  • Output PadOut must exactly track WriteData.
