To write the content of the data input bus into the addressed memory location, both EN and WE must be active within a setup time before the active clock edge. The output latches are loaded or not loaded according to the write configuration (WRITE_FIRST, READ_FIRST, NO_CHANGE). When WE is inactive and EN is active, a read operation occurs, and the contents of the memory cells referenced by the address bus appear on the data out bus, regardless of the write mode attribute. Write enable polarity is not configurable (active-High). When used as SDP memory, the WEBWE[8:0] port is the byte-write enable. When used as TDP memory, the WEA[3:0] and WEB[3:0] are byte-write enables for port A and port B, respectively.
