Dual port RAM for Xilinx

Nov 24, 2003 6 Replies

Hello,



Is there someone who has experiences with designing a dual port RAM. I use the device Spartan-IIE (XC2S300E). But it should be simular with other devices (e.g. Virtex, Spartan 3, etc) I know there is a Synthesis Template in "Xilinx ISE Foundation". Is there someone who knows about a complete design for a dual port RAM. I know, I need to get some more experience with VHDL.



Thank you for any help.

I used that template without problems. But I assume that you can't use single-bit signals as RAM-data-inputs.

some Code:

multibit

Tobias,

Have you tried using the Xilinx Coregenerator to instantiate the Dual port BRAM ?

Hello!

Thank you for your advice. Yes, I tried it the CoreGenerator. Hm. One more question: Do I have to copy the source code generated by the CoreGenerator in a vhd-file or is it enough to add the generated core (-> including the xco-file by saying: "New Source... IP(CoreGen & Architecture Wizard) in Xilinx ISE Foundation)?

The source code generated by the core generator is only needed for simulation. You can just add the generated core to your project and create an instance in the right HDL file or schematic
