FPGA - Configuration Memory

FPGA - Configuration Memory refers to dedicated non-volatile memory devices used to store the configuration data required to initialize and program a Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) at power-up or during reconfiguration. These components retain the FPGA bitstream when power is removed and provide a reliable source for loading the device logic and routing information.

Within Embedded Processors & Controllers, FPGA configuration memory is treated as a supporting programmable-device resource that enables consistent FPGA bring-up and system-level configuration management.

• Primary role: Preserve and deliver FPGA configuration data.
• Data content: FPGA bitstreams and related configuration information.
• System function: Supports FPGA initialization and reconfiguration workflows.
