template class xf::common::utils_hw::UramArray¶
#include "xf_utils_hw/uram_array.hpp"
Overview¶
Helper class to create URAM array that can be updated every cycle with forwarding regs.
Forwarding regs keeps a history of address and values, and when acess to URAM hits the “cache”, read from URAM is skipped. This addresses the Read-After-Write dependency across iterations. The depth of the cache, specified with the _NCache
variable, dependes on the latency of actual write. It is suggested to be set after initial sythesis attempts.
When element can be held in one URAM row (72-bit), this helper would try to pack multiple elements to one row. If it is beyond 72-bits, multiple URAMs will be used to ensure elements can be fetched in one cycle.
To make the cache really functional, HLS needs to be instructed to ignore inter-iteration dependencies on blocks
of UramArray
objects. Please refer to the test of this module for an example.
Attention
This module requires HLS 2019.1 or above.
Parameters:
_WData | the width of every element. |
_NData | the number of elements in the array. |
_NCache | the number of cache. |
template < int _WData, int _NData, int _NCache > class UramArray // fields ap_uint <72>* blocks[details::need_num< _WData, _NData >::value_x][details::need_num< _WData, _NData >::value_y]

template class xf::common::utils_hw::cache¶
#include "cache.hpp"
Overview¶
cache is a URAM design for caching Read-only DDR/HBM memory spaces
This function stores history data recently loaded from DDR/HBM in the on-chip memory(URAM). It aims to reduce DDR/HBM access when the memory is accessed randomly.
Parameters:
T | The type of the actual data accessed. Float and double is not supported. |
ramRow | The number of rows each on chip ram has |
groupramPart | The number of on chip ram used in cache |
dataOneLine | The number of actual data each 512 can contain |
addrWidth | The width of the address to access the memory |
validRamType | The ram type of the valid flag array. 0 for LUTRAM, 1 for BRAM, 2 for URAM |
addrRamType | The ram type of the onchip addr array. 0 for LUTRAM, 1 for BRAM, 2 for URAM |
dataRamType | The ram type of the onchip data array. 0 for LUTRAM, 1 for BRAM, 2 for URAM |
template < typename T, int ramRow, int groupRamPart, int dataOneLine, int addrWidth, int validRamType, int addrRamType, int dataRamType > class cache
Methods¶
initSingleOffChip¶
void initSingleOffChip ()
Initialization of the on chip memory when controlling single off chip memory.
initDualOffChip¶
void initDualOffChip ()
Initialization of the on chip memory when controlling dual off chip memory.
readOnly¶

readOnly function with end flags.
Parameters:
ddrMem | The pointer for the off chip memory |
addrStrm | The read address should be sent from this stream |
e_addrStrm | The end flag for the addrStrm |
dataStrm | The data loaded from off chip memory |
e_dataStrm | The end flag for the dataStrm |
readOnly overload (2)¶
void readOnly ( int cnt, ap_uint <512>* ddrMem, hls::stream <ap_uint <32>>& addrStrm, hls::stream <T>& dataStrm )
readOnly function without end flags.
