If you're looking to access the SDRAM on the FPGA board, then you need to use the SDRAM/DDR controller IPs that come in Quartus that are targeted for that specific FPGA and memory chip aka Micron, etc. Make sure to choose the right type of memory controller - SDRAM or DDR or DDR2 and while configuring the controller, you need to choose the correct memory part type (DIMM/SODIMM/component), manufacturer (Micron/etc), part number and timing parameters. Once you have configured the memory controller core, you can generate and insert it into your project, connect it to the required interface aka Processor, etc, and generate your design. If you're looking to access the on-chip RAM, then you need to use the on-chip RAM controller and configure it for the memory type (BRAM/DRAM), size and other parameters. -Abr
