Vivado synthesis implements inferred Shift Registers on SRL-type resources such as:

  • SRL16E
  • SRLC32E

Depending on the length of the Shift Register, Vivado synthesis does one of the following:

  • Implements it on a single SRL-type primitive
  • Takes advantage of the cascading capability of SRLC-type primitives
  • Attempts to take advantage of this cascading capability if the rest of the design uses some intermediate positions of the Shift Register
