FIFOs Using Virtex-II Shift Registers

Company: Xilinx, Inc.

The shift registers available in Virtex-II devices are ideal when building synchronous FIFOs. By using the flexibility of the shift register LUT primitive (SRL16), FIFOs can be built with any width while producing a 1-bit resolution. With cascaded SRL16 shift registers (SRLC16), a flexible depth in multiples of 16 is available.
