BRAM Configuration Editor

The BRAM Configuration Editor provides a simplified graphical wizard for creating a BRAM configuration
file (.acxip). This editor allows the user to generate the required configuration files for design with the
embedded PLLs. See

Creating an IP Configuration

.

By default, the BRAM Configuration Editor is included in the IP Configuration perspective
(WindowOpen PerspectiveIP Configuration) (

). The BRAM configuration information fits into a

single page, unlike more complicated IP editors.

Once the user has configured the BRAM to meet their requirements, and the BRAM Configuration Editor
has determined that there are no errors in the configuration, the user may choose to generate their IP design
files (see

Generating the IP Design Files

).

IP Diagram

The IP Diagram View for the BRAM shows live information about the current configuration in the Editor,
including which inputs and outputs are currently active.
