## FPGA Platform-Specific Components
This folder contains FPGA vendor-specific components (mostly memory components).
These alternative files allow a more efficient usage of the special (FPGA-specific) hard macros.
This folder contains FPGA vendor-specific CPU/processor components (mostly memory components).
These alternative files allow a more efficient usage of the special (FPGA-specific) hard macros
and thus, might result in higher performance and/or less area utilization.
For example, if you want to use the FPGA optimized version of the DMEM, please use the file from the
according FPGA vendor folder instead of the original file from the rtl/core folder.
Please note, that these FPGA-specific components are **optional**. The Processor/CPU uses an FPGA-independent
VHDL description.
For example, if you want to use the Lattice iCE40up FPGA optimized versions of the DMEM and DMEM please use the files
from [`rtl/fpga_specific/lattice_ice40up`](https://github.com/stnolting/neorv32/tree/master/rtl/fpga_specific/lattice_ice40up)
folder **instead** of the original files from the [`rtl/core folder`](https://github.com/stnolting/neorv32/tree/master/rtl/core).
