Hi!

I've got some space constraints for a test chip and wanted to know, if its possible to use one memory cell (e.g. 8k x 16) for both, the DRAM and PRAM?

Thanks
Hansi

Yes, I think it is possible, with the addition of an address decoder module, a wrapper around your memory block so that interrupt vectors appear in high memory and data memory appears on low memory. Take a look at the calculations for PMEM_ADDR and DMEM_ADDR in the code and the documentation and adjust accordingly. I hope this helps.
