As far as I know, the only option to import hex files is for ROM/RAM initialization.

For what do you want the .hex files ? 

Is it a processor executable ? 

FPGA bitstream ? 

RAM initialization ? 

ROM initialization ? 

State machine encoding ?

One more question: by hex, do you mean a file in Intel HEX format or just a text file with hexadecimal data?

Hi everyone, 

 

I have a quartus project including fft megacore and some other vhdl files. 

I want to import all the project to simulink; 

when I do this with HDL Import bloc, I got many warnings like this one: 

 

Could not find RAM initialization file 'fft_opt_twr1.hex' 

 

What can I do to avoid these warnings

Put the .hex files in the same directory as the other files. 

Or simply correct the path so that it points to the correct place.
