how to create a BYTE ADDRESSABLE MEMORY ?


Recommended Posts

Hello. 

I wanted to create a byte addressable memory in IPXACT with below code

Here width tells the number of bits per location. If width is 8 then is it byte addressable ?

And the total number of address locations are 2**10 (1024 locations starting from base address 0) ?

and what is the difference between addressable units and addressunitbits ?

Hi Prashanth,

If you want a byte addressable memory then the addressUnitBits value shall be 8 (which is the default value). The number represents number of data bits in each address increment. Hence, the addressable unit is then a byte. The range describes the number of addressable units. The width describes the number of data bits that can be accessed in a single transaction.

Best regards,
Erwin
