Abstract: A field programmable gate array (FPGA) device including a configuration interface arranged to receive configuration data from an FPGA programmer. The FPGA device includes a plurality of random access memory (RAM) types, including a first RAM type and a second RAM type, arranged to store the configuration or image data. The FPGA device also includes a FIFO IP core arranged to implement a FIFO function in a plurality of different FPGA platforms. The FIFO IP core is: i) configured to implement the FIFO in the FPGA device based on the configuration data, and ii) configurable to store the configuration data in one or both of the first RAM type and the second RAM type.
