Yeah, that's actually what I had in mind.(and probably didn't say)
Xilinx has their Memory Interface Generator which is part of their
coregen IP. That works on several different FPGAs.
I've tried the MIG generated stuff, and some opencores ones too.
Unfortunately, I've been unable to make any of them work with my Spartan
3E starter kit -- even though several of them are explicitly written for
that platform. This is mainly due to my lack of experience and
knowledge than it does to the quality of the cores.
I'm still banging away. I'd really like a simple straightforward
interface to read/write data to the onboard DDR.
Thanks
