MIG Settings

Spartan-7 devices support external, high-performance memory through the use of the Memory Interface Generator (MIG) provided by Xilinx. MIG produces a custom memory interface core that may be included in your design. These parameters have been used successfully within Opal Kelly but your design needs may require deviations.

All settings are based on MIG 4.2 and Vivado 2017.3.
