Arrays of arrays: How to assign them to instances of components?

Hi, Could you please help me (= still a beginner, started with VHDL a few months ago :-) ) with the following problem?: I have to use, lets say, two arrays of 48 RAMs (= arrays of integer)...

VHDL is very specific when it comes to using types.

Rather than defining a new type in your second component, i.e., sub_RAM_integer_array, use the type RAM_integer_array from your package, since that is what is returned when indexing into the array.

Cheers,
