FIR Filter Mapped to DSP Slices
This filter structure, while referred to as a
Systolic FIR filter, is really a Direct Form
Type I with one extra stage of pipelining
The input time delay series is created inside
the DSP slice for maximum performance
irrespective of the number of coefficients
x(n)

Coefficients are
from left to right,
causing the
latency to be as
large and grow
with the increase
of coefficients

 SIMD operations
– 48-bit adder broken into 2x24 bits or 4x12 bits
• Allows two or four independent additions to be done
– Carry bits brought out independently and
disabled between sections

Cascade Paths
 Cascade paths exist from each DSP48E1 slice to the slice above it
– A input, B input, P output, and carry out
• P cascade path can be shifted by 17 bits by slice above
 Enables common functions with little or no additional resources
– Wider accumulators, wider multipliers, complex multipliers, and FIR filters
– Example: 35-bit x 25-bit multiplier with two DSP48E1s

Pre-Adder
 The pre-adder can add or subtract the two 25-bit operands on the A and the D
inputs before the result drives the multiplier
 Benefits
– Perfect for operations using symmetrical coefficients
– Doubles the efficiency of symmetric FIR and symmetric IIR and transpose convolution
filters
– Half the power consumption compared to architectures without a pre-adder
– Smaller total logic footprint
– A small change with a big benefit
DSP Resources - 31
© Copyright 2011 Xilinx
Symmetrical Filters
 When the coefficients are symmetrical
– The pre-adders either reduce the number of multiplications by 50% or double the
sample rate
– Factorizing the taps replaces one multiplication by a pre-addition
(or pre-subtraction)
Symmetrical Filter Example
k13
k17
Non symmetrical filter (k13≠k17) :
(tap13×k13) + (tap17×k17)
2 mults and one post-add
Symmetrical filter (k13=k17) :
(tap13+tap17) × k13
Direct benefit: saves 50% of the DSP slices

Dynamic Pipeline Control
 The 7 series FPGA DSP slice has dynamic pipeline control on the A and B
registers
– User can select which of the two pipeline registers to use for calculations on a
clock-by-clock basis
 Benefits
– Allows an operation to reuse the same operand in subsequent cycles
DSP Resources - 35

Application: Sequential Complex Multiply
Complex Multiply
• (A + ai) * (B + bi) = (AB-ab) + (Ab+aB)i
• Use the two AB registers to locally store the real and imaginary parts of the operands
– Read each component of the complex operands out of memory only once
– Fewer memory reads because A, a, B, and b are then stored locally

Inferring a Multiply Accumulate (MACC)
------------------------------------------------------------- Example: Multiply add function, single level of register
-Matches 1 DSP48 slice
-OpMode(Z,Y,X):Subtract
-(011,01,01):0

p <= (others => '0');

Inferring a 2-Input Adder
------------------------------------------------------------------------- Example: 16 bit adder 2 inputs, input and output
-- registered once
-- Mapping to DSP48 should be driven by timing as
-- DSP48 are limited resources. The -use_dsp48 XST
-- switch must be set to YES
-- Matches 1 DSP48 slice
-OpMode(Z,Y,X):Subtract
-(000,11,11):0 or
-(011,00,11):0
-----------------------------------------------------------------------p1 <= a1 + b1;
process (clk) is
begin
if clk'event and clk = '1' then
if rst = '1' then
p <= (others => '0');
a1 <= (others => '0');
b1 <= (others => '0');

Inferring a Loadable MACC
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Example: Loadable Multiply Accumulate with one level
-- of registers
-Map into 1 DSP48 slice
-Funtion: OpMode(Z,Y,X):Subtract
-- load (011,00,00):0
-- mult_acc (010,01,01):0
-- Restriction: Since C input of DSP48 slice is used, then
-- adjacent DSP cannot se a different c input (c input are
-- shared between 2 adjacent DSP48 slices)
-- Expected mapping:
-AREG: no, BREG: no, CREG: no, MREG: no, PREG: yes
------------------------------------------------------------------------------with load select p_tmp <= signed(c) when '1' ,
p_reg + a1*b1 when others;
process(clk)
begin
if clk'event and clk = '1' then
if p_rst = '1' then
