Memory window

General Description

The memory window displays the current contents of a memory. A CPU model (ISS) may contain several different memories (program, data, cache, ...), each with its own memory window. Multiple memory windows can be opened to view different areas of interest at once.

The maximum size for a single memory is 4GB (32 bits address), even if the workstation contains less physical memory, and without loss of simulation speed.

C++ models of peripherals may also contain one or more memory windows. Dependent on the variable declaration in HDL designs, a memory window is used to visualize and control the contents of that variable (arrays).
