13 years agoCalculate M9K Memory Blocks
Hello,
I try to calculate my need of M9K blocks. My device (Cyclone III) has 432 blocks and I think that each block can has this sizes: 8192 × 1 4096 × 1 2000 × 4 1024 × 9 512 × 18 256 × 36 If my Clocked Video Input FIFO, buffers 1920px with RGB in parallel, there is a need of two 1024x9 (2*1024x9 = 2048x9) blocks for each color. So I need 6 M9K blocks for this task. Then I have to calculate the FIFOs of the Frame Buffers. I have a write and read only FIFO depth of 256 and a master port width of 128. 128/36=3.555 => 4. So there are 4 M9K blocks of 256x36 for write and for read FIFO. Is this right? Thank you!
