# fw_ram
|
||||
RAM for the firmware (FW).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Introduction
|
||||
This core implements the RAM exclusive to the FW. This allows the FW
|
||||
to execute without having to use the application RAM. The core
|
||||
supports mode based lock down to prevent any access in application
|
||||
mode.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## API
|
||||
The core does not have an API.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Implementation Details
|
||||
The core is implemented by explicitly instantiating one or more pairs
|
||||
of SB_RAM40_4K RAM cores in the FPGA.
|
||||
|
||||
The contents of the fw_ram is cleared when the FPGA is powered up and
|
||||
configured by the bitstream. The contents is not cleared by a system
|
||||
reset.
|
||||
|
||||
If the fw_app_mode input is set, no memory accesses are allowed. Any
|
||||
reads when the fw_app_mode is set will retun an all zero word.
