Honored ContributorHello
I' am trying to make a *.mif (memory initialization file) from a picture(gray scale) and initialize it with memory i have create in fpga. The memory is reg [7:0] ram[76799:0] // 320X240 My question is how to create the file an how to initialize it with ram? Thank you A.A
Honored ContributorThe mif format is explained in Quartus Help when you look up "mif". It's a rather simple format and you can probably write a script or small software on your PC that reads the bmp file and writes the contents to a text file to generate the mif. Alternatively you can use a hex conversion program such as srecord (http://srecord.sourceforge.net/) that knows how to export to the MIF format.
Honored ContributorI create the mif file from Quartus.
How to connect it with verilog and initial memory ?Honored ContributorThe easiest way is to use the megawizard to create a ROM/RAM block. Then you can specify the .mif file to use for the block contents.
