AR# 35060 11.5 EDK, XPS_CAN_v3_00_a - Potential block RAM collisions require EDK 12.1 for Spartan-6 production use

Description

TheXPS_CAN_v3_00_a and earlier cores have the potential for internal block RAM collisions documented in the Spartan-6 FPGA Block RAM Resources User's Guide(UG383).

Solution

This issue might not be reported in simulation and could cause the core to fail in hardware.In summary,the core should not be used for production in Spartan-6 devicesuntil EDK 12.1.

For more information, see (Xilinx Answer 34533).

This issue is scheduled to be fixedtoXPS_CAN_v3_00_ain EDK12.1.Note that there will not be a version change in EDK 12.1, see the IP changelog to verify changes.Due to ISE design tools dependencies, an11.5 patch will not be available before 12.1.
