As kaz reply "distributed ram makes use of (some) luts of logic fabric as memory instead of implementing them for logic. these are good for multiple small blocks(fine grain). e.g. 3 input lut can provides 8 1 bit locations." 1) So how can u says that Cyclone IV family does not have distributed RAM ? 2) Is there any Cyclone FPGA which has Distributed RAM , also how to configure LUT as distributd RAM ? 3) so Whenever an FPGA is configured , is it actually program this block RAM only ?
