how to set up table of data to send out serially???

I'm not a complete newb to Altera/programmable logic, but am by no means an expert... I'm looking for suggestions on how to set up a large table of 'mostly' fixed data in an FPGA, so that I can read...

Hi,

I suggest you use a ROM megafunction, which will be initialized with the contents of a MIF file.

(You'll have to convert the data from Excel or whatever into the MIF format, which is a simple one).

Then you'll need to add a bit of logic so that you read from the ocunter instead of the ROM for those addresses.
