7. In-System Modification of Memory and Constants

The Intel® Quartus® Prime In-System Memory Content Editor (ISMCE) allows to view and update memories and constants at runtime through the JTAG interface. By testing changes to memory contents in the FPGA while the design is running, you can identify, test, and resolve issues.

The ability to read data from memories and constants can help you identify the source of problems, and the write capability allows you to bypass functional issues by writing expected data.

When you use the In-System Memory Content Editor in conjunction with the Signal Tap Logic Analyzer, you can view and debug your design in the hardware lab.
