6 years agoDifferences in the use of Random Number Generator IP Core between Straitx IV and Arria 10
Simulate the Random Number Generator IP Core with ModelSim. The same testbench, when choosing different devices, the simulation results of rand_num_data are quite different. (1) When stratix iv (EP4...

6 years agoHi,
Regarding your observation where when increasing the frequency of the clock for SIV rand generator IP simulation, the simulation seems to have issue. For your information, I am able to replicate similar observation when increasing the frequency from 100MHz to 200MHz. I believe this is due to limitation of the simulation model at high frequency. However, in actual hardware implementation, the core performance should be limited your timing closure. As a workaround, you can simulate the functionality at 100MHz and then implement the actual frequency in your design.
Please let me know if there is any concern. Thank you.
Best regards,
Chee Pin

6 years agoHi,
I will implement in my actual hardware.
Thanks very much!
