Embedded
Memory
The Cyclone embedded memory consists of columns of M4K memory
blocks. EP1C3 and EP1C6 devices have one column of M4K blocks, while
EP1C12 and EP1C20 devices have two columns (see
total RAM bits per density). Each M4K block can implement various types
of memory with or without parity, including true dual-port, simple dual-
port, and single-port RAM, ROM, and FIFO buffers. The M4K blocks
support the following features:
Memory Modes
The M4K memory blocks include input registers that synchronize writes
and output registers to pipeline designs and improve system
performance. M4K blocks offer a true dual-port mode to support any
combination of two-port operations: two reads, two writes, or one read
and one write at two different clock frequencies.
dual-port memory.
Figure 12. True Dual-Port Memory Configuration
In addition to true dual-port memory, the M4K memory blocks support
simple dual-port and single-port RAM. Simple dual-port memory
supports a simultaneous read and write. Single-port memory supports
non-simultaneous reads and writes.
