The
rden
and
wren
control signals control the read and write operations for each port of the M9K
memory blocks. You can disable the
rden
or
wren
signals independently to save power whenever the
operation is not required.

Parity Bit
You can perform parity checking for error detection with the parity bit along with internal logic
resources. The M9K memory blocks support a parity bit for each storage byte. You can use this bit as
either a parity bit or as an additional data bit. No parity function is actually performed on this bit. If error
detection is not desired, you can use the parity bit as an additional data bit.
Read Enable
M9K memory blocks support the read enable feature for all memory modes.
If you...
...Then
Create the read-enable port and perform a write
operation with the read enable port deasserted
The data output port retains the previous values that
are held during the most recent active read enable.
