Primitive: 64-Deep by 1-Wide Dual Port Static Synchronous RAM
Introduction
This design element is a 64-bit deep by 1-bit wide static dual port random access memory with synchronous write capability. The device has two separate address ports: the read address (DPRA5:DPRA0) and the write address (A5:A0). These two address ports are completely asynchronous. The read address controls the location of the data driven out of the output pin (DPO), and the write address controls the destination of a valid write transaction. When the write enable (WE) is Low, transitions on the write clock (WCLK) are ignored and data stored in the RAM is not affected.
When WE is High, any positive transition on WCLK loads the data on the data input (D) into the memory cell selected by the 6-bit (A0:A5) write address. For predictable performance, write address and data inputs must be stable before a Low-to-High WCLK transition. This RAM block assumes an active-High WCLK. WCLK can be active-High or active-Low. Any inverter placed on the WCLK input net is absorbed into the block.
The SPO output reflects the data in the memory cell addressed by A5:A0. The DPO output reflects the data in the memory cell addressed by DPRA5:DPRA0. The write process is not affected by the address on the read address port.
You can use the INIT attribute to specify the initial contents of the RAM. If left unspecified, the initial contents default to all zeros.
