Study the internal memory block of FPGA, Study the format of *.mif and how to edit *.mif file to configure the contents of ROM : Use of ROM – FII-PRX100 Risc-V FPGA Board Experiment 9

Experiment 9 Use of ROM

1.Experiment Objective

  1. Study the internal memory block of FPGA
  2. Study the format of *.mif and how to edit *.mif file to configure the contents of ROM
  3. Learn to use RAM, read and write RAM

2.Experiment Design

    1. Design 16 outputs ROM, address ranging 0-255
    2. Interface 8-bit switch input as ROM’s address
    3. Segment decoders display the contents of ROM and require conversion of hexadecimal to BCD output.

3.Design Procedure

  1. Create a coe file. This experiment *.coe file is generated based on Matlab2018. The *.m file is as follows:
% –by Fraser Innovation Inc–

% function : create .coe

clear all;

close all;

clc;

depth= 256;

width =16;

fid_s = fopen(‘test_rom.coe’, ‘w+’);

fprintf(fid_s, ‘MEMORY_INITIALIZATION_RADIX = %d;\n’,width);

fprintf(fid_s, ‘%s\n’, ‘MEMORY_INITIALIZATION_VECTOR =’);

for i=0:depth1

data =i*i;

b=dec2hex(data);

fprintf(fid_s, ‘%s’, b);

fprintf(fid_s, ‘%s\n’, ‘,’);

end

fclose(fid_s);

disp(‘=======mif file completed========’);

  1. *.coe file syntax is shown in Fig 9. 1.

Fig 9. 1 *.coe file syntax

  1. Create new project, rom_test, select device XC7A100TFGG676-2
  2. Click IP Catalog, and input ROM in the search box. Choose Block Memory Generator. See Fig 9. 2.

Fig 9. 2 Use of ROM IP core

  1. Select the memory type be Single Port ROM. See Fig 9. 3.

Fig 9. 3 Memory type selection

  1. Click Port A Options tag. Set as shown in Fig 9. 4.

Fig 9. 4 Port memory width setting

 

  1. Click the Other Options tab shown in Fig 9. 5, select the Load Init File check box, set the correct *.coe file location, and initialize the rom.

Fig 9. 5 ROM initialization

  1. Set others as default
  2. Click OK to finish setting for IP core. Generate other files related as default setting.
  3. Create top-level entity, rom_test.v
  4. Add PLL (Input clock 50 MHz, output clock 100 MHz)
  5. Add us_ms_s_div.v and instantiate it. Refer previous experiments for more
  6. Add HEX_BCD and instantiate it
  7. The code is given below:
