Cyclone III - Timing Constraints Issue
I encountered an issue with softcore firmware and FPGA setup on a Cyclone III device. Previously, I had been experiencing problems with FPGA synthesis, particularly in meeting timing constraints.
Interestingly, I observed that when the chip's temperature reached 65 degrees Celsius, the firmware began exhibiting suspicious behavior, resulting in incorrect reading and writing operations on dedicated memories.
Since then, I have successfully resolved the timing constraints issue, and it seems that I can no longer replicate the reading/writing problem. The chip now behaves as expected.
My primary question pertains to the potential relationship between FPGA timing and suspicious behavior in reading/writing. With the timing issue resolved, is it reasonable to assume that similar problems will not reoccur?
