Product Description

The AXI Memory Initialization core autonomously writes an initial value to all specified address locations after power-up and following each soft reset. This prevents spurious ECC errors that can occur when accessing an uninitialized memory. This could also provide security following a partial reconfiguration to prevent a process running in a new reconfigurable module from accessing data left over from an earlier run.

Key Features and Benefits

User-selectable starting address and address range size
User-selectable initial value string to aid debugging
Supports AXI4 and AXI3 protocols
