Abstract

See full text

A data processing system having a user configurable memory controller, one or more local block RAMs, one or more global block RAMs and a processor core can be configured in a single field programmable gate array (FPGA). The address depth of the global block RAMs and the number of wait states can be selected by a user, and they can be set either prior to configuration of the FPGA or programmed using instructions of the processor core. The number of wait states of the local block RAM is also user selectable. An algorithm that can optimize the address depth and the number of wait states to achieve a performance level is also disclosed. The present invention can be applied to designs having separate instruction and data sides.
