This RAM is implemented in such a way that Xilinx's tools will recognize it as a RAM and implement large instances in block RAM instead of flip-flops. The parameter SIZE is used to specify the word size. That is the size of each entry in the RAM. The parameter DEPTH is used to specify how many entries are in the RAM. read_data outputs the value of the entry pointed to by raddr in the previous clock cycle. That means to read address 10, you would set address to be 10 and wait one cycle for its value to show up. The RAM is always reading whatever address is. If you don't need to read, just ignore this value. To write, set write_en to 1, write_data to the value to write, and waddr to the address you want to write. You should avoid reading and writing to the same address simultaneously. The value read in this case is undefined. */ module simple_dual_ram #( parameter SIZE = 8, // size of each entry parameter DEPTH = 8 // number of entries )( // write interface input wclk, // write clock input [$clog2(DEPTH)-1:0] waddr, // write address input [SIZE-1:0] write_data, // write data input write_en, // write enable (1 = write) // read interface input rclk, // read clock input [$clog2(DEPTH)-1:0] raddr, // read address output reg [SIZE-1:0] read_data // read data ); reg [SIZE-1:0] mem [DEPTH-1:0]; // memory array // write clock domain always @(posedge wclk) begin if (write_en) // if write enable mem[waddr] <= write_data; // write memory end // read clock domain always @(posedge rclk) begin read_data <= mem[raddr]; // read memory end endmodule
