How is an ALM used as Memory cell inside MLAB?

I'm not sure of the exact answer to your question, but have you checked out any of the embedded memory user guides? This is the one for Stratix 10:

https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/programmable/us/en/pdfs/literature/hb/stratix-10/ug-s10-memory.pdf

MLABs are made up of 10 ALMs so that's enough inputs for what is required for the whole MLAB. Where are you seeing that an individual ALM can be configured as a fully dual port 32x2 RAM with all those control signals?

#iwork4intel

This document clearly says "you can configure each ALM in the MLAB as ten 32×2 blocks. The Intel Stratix 10 devices provide one 32×20 simple dual-port SRAM block per MLAB"

The attachment is a view from resource property viewer.

You can see a single ALM placed in MLAB cell, configured as RAM (LUTRAM), and has write address ports, byteenable, write enable, addition to the ALUT inputs used as read address bus. I could not see any documentation detailing about these extra ports. Kindly share if you have some references.

Hi,

Upon checking, there is only a document about the Intel Stratix 10 LAB and MLAB Structure https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/programmable/us/en/pdfs/literature/hb/stratix-10/ug-s10-lab.pdf and Embedded Memory block types https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/programmable/us/en/pdfs/literature/ug/ug_ram_rom.pdf but not detailing about the extra ports in the RAM.

Thanks.

Hi,

I try to create a simple test case similar to the screenshot you have attach here but I could not replicate. Could you provide a simple test case for investigation?

Thanks.

Hi,

Can you check if the settings are the same?

Thanks

Hi,

Unfortunately, there is no document showing the RAM internal architecture.

Thanks.
