When driving the following, Vivado synthesis implements inferred tristate buffers with different device primitives:

  • An external pin of the circuit (OBUFT)
  • An Internal bus (BUFT):
    • Vivado synthesis converts automatically inferred BUFT to logic realized in LUTs.
    • When an internal bus inferring a BUFT is driving an output of the top module, the Vivado synthesis infers an OBUF.
