    thanks for the reply !

    but if i have to use hex? is it the same? by the way, wats the different between hex and mif file?

    u mean unsigned decimal input...does that refer to integer only? what about real number with fraction??

    and the address to the rom..is it compulsory to be 16bit (4 hex)?

    When you create the MIF (Memory initialization file) for the ROM, you will need to enter unsigned decimal numbers.
