Hi,

For the system level functional verification, I need to initialize
several BlockRAMs. From a setup with the ALdec Simulator there are
existing *.mif files. In the online help form ModelSim describes the
initialization procedure for Memory contents. But I can't found the
array of the BlockRAM in my Workspace (the pipeline and the address
counter registers are visible). Has anyone some experience with this
initialization procedure?

Regards,
David

For functional verification, consider using
a testbench process to write the blockrams
from an array of vector constants declared
in the testbench.
