Abstract

Implementing a hardware description language (HDL) memory includes determining, using computer hardware, a width and a depth of the HDL memory specified as an HDL module for implementation in an integrated circuit (IC), partitioning, using the computer hardware, the HDL memory into a plurality of super slices corresponding to columns and the plurality of super slices into a plurality of super tiles arranged in rows. A heterogeneous memory array may be generated, using the computer hardware. The heterogeneous memory array is formed of different types of memory primitives of the IC. Input and output circuitry configured to access the heterogeneous memory array can be generated using the computer hardware.
