Hi gkarpiel,

Yes. On chip memory components are initialized from the contents of a .hex file.

For example, if you have an on chip rom component named "irom", Quartus

will look for a file named "irom.hex" by default -- you can look in your ptf file

to see the name. You can use elf2hex to generate the file ... although I believe the

IDE can do it automatically for you (I always do these tasks via command line).
