MIG 7 Series v1.1-v1.2 DDR3/DDR2 - Internal VREF Constraint is not Applied Across All Memory Banks

Description

When I generate a MIG design that spans multiple banks, I only see internal VREFused for the bank selected for address and control. Why does this occur if the other banks have inputs that need internal VREF?

Solution

This is incorrect behavior as internal VREF should be applied to all banks that require VREF. To work around the problem, add the INTERNAL_VREF constraint into the generated UCF for the missing banks.

Example 1: INTERNAL_VREF for Bank 14 using HSTL_II (1.5V), which requires a 0.75V reference voltage, uses the following constraint:

CONFIG INTERNAL_VREF_BANK14 = 0.75;

This is scheduled to be fixed in the 13.3 release.

For Internal/External VREF Guidelines, see (Xilinx Answer 42036).
