Hi,
I'm using Altera's core: single port RAM , which includes the component "altsyncram". when loading modelsim i get the following warning: Warning: (vsim-3473) Component instance "altsyncram_component : altsyncram" is not bound. what does it mean and how can i resolve it? i compiled the relevant altera libraries for simulating( e.g altera_mf library) Thanks a lot, Fina.Link Copied

Hi,
I think, the cause could be that you don't compile the altsyncram component. so adding "vcom -check_synthesis [your_dir]/altsyncram.vhd' should do it. Cheers- Mark as New

When creating the RAM with Megawizard, it should create a *my_ram*.vhd file.
You need to compile this file. Otherwise, modelsim doesn't know anything about the component you are declaring. (sorry for the confusion about altsyncram.vhd) Cheers- Mark as New

thanks for your answer.
megawizrd did create a *my_ram*.vhd file. but in *my_ram*.vhd file there is an instantiation of the component altsyncram_component : altsyncram . seems that the simulator can't find this component. although i compiled the relevant altera libraries (altera_mf etc...).- Mark as New

Have you put the corresponding library into the modelsim.ini-file?
insert "altera_mf = [your_altera_installation_folder]/modelsim_ae/altera/vhdl/altera_mf" into the library section of that file. Cheers- Mark as New

Hi,
Try putting the *.hex or *.mif files of your ram In the modelsim project folder This should solve your problem Cheers
