This section covers notable changes in Versal clocking. Versal allows clock tile splitting among multiple RPs. However, this is taken care by the tool. User need to range only the clock sources like MMCM and BUFGs to the Pblock and DFX flow automatically pulls in the required clocking tiles for routing.
Figure Clock Tile Partition shows RCLK
row and VNOC
column
sharing among multiple reconfigurable partitions.
RCLK
row sharing among two reconfigurable partitions allow
sharing the clock region between two RPs (one above the RCLK
and one below the RP). The VNOC
tiles are also shared between multiple reconfigurable partitions.
However, if more than two RPs compete to find clock routing solution in a single VNOC
column, it might cause unroutable situation. If there are more than 2 RPs, try to keep a
clock region gap between them so that internal clocks of all the RPs do not compete for
solution in same VNOC
tile.
