LRAM Configuration Editor

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

Creating an IP Configuration

.

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

). The LRAM configuration information fits into a

single page.

Once the user has configured the LRAM wrapper to meet their requirements, and the LRAM 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 LRAM shows live information about the current configuration in the Editor,

including the total memory size and which inputs and outputs are currently active. Additionally, relevant
configuration errors will be shown with a red background, and configuration warnings will be shown with
a yellow background (these are the default IP Diagram colors, and may be modified in the Preferences).
