2.2.14.1 Content

The Content setting defines how data is stored and managed within a FlashROM region.

Static

Data is entered manually when the core is configured and cannot be changed later. This option is appropriate for fixed data required for FPGA operation, such as secure key storage.

Auto Increment

Specifies a starting value, a maximum value, and an increment step size. The starting and maximum values can be modified later using FlashPoint.

Read from File

Data is read from an external content file and loaded into the selected FlashROM region. A different content file can be selected later in FlashPoint from either Designer or FlashPro.

When Read from File is selected, the following file formats are supported: binary, hexadecimal, decimal, and text. In each case, the file consists of a simple list of data values that match the configured content size.
