Hi, I am using MIG v2.1 that targets spartan 3 starter kit. I want to know, if sram on the starter board could be accessed using MIG and if the MIG is used for accessing memory development boards? Thanks in advance!

SRAM is easy: there are data lines and address lines and it just does what you ask it to. The interface is trivial enough to implement that I'd be surprised if anyone has a core to do it; it would mostly just be wires. -- Rob Gaddi, Highland Technology Email address is currently out of order

Could you please clear my other doubt? How do I send address and data to the SRAM?

Why dont you just read the data sheet on the device? Generally you just set the address and data you want and then set the write enable (all synchronous with the clock). Nothing more to it really Jon --------------------------------------- This message was sent using the comp.arch.fpga web interface on http://www.FPGARelated.com
