The UltraScale architecture Memory IP enables configuration of DDR3 and DDR4 SDRAM, QDRIIPLUS SRAM, and RLDRAM3 type interfaces. As of 2015.3, the Memory IP has been split into different IPs based on memory interface standards and tool flows. The Customize IP dialog box contains basic and advanced configuration options that include debug. Now that the memory I/O assignment process is consolidated with the rest of the design, the IP configuration process is consistent with other Xilinx IP. For more information on the IP configuration and management process, see this link in the Vivado Design Suite User Guide: Designing with IP (UG896).

To configure the Memory IP in the Vivado tools:

  1. Open the Vivado IP catalog, and expand the Memories & Storage Elements > External Memory Interface category.

  2. Double-click the desired interface to open the Customize IP dialog box.

Note: Although the I/O Planning tab still exists in the Customize IP dialog box, it only explains the new consolidated Memory IP I/O planning.

For information on configuring Memory IP, see the UltraScale Architecture-Based FPGAs Memory IP LogiCORE IP Product Guide (PG150).

Note: The Vivado Design Suite supports multiple UltraScale architecture memory controllers in the same design. Each must be defined individually.
