How many I/O pins will you have left over?
The RAM has 37 connections, leaving 89-37=52 I/Os. I'll bring the shared pins out to the connector, anyway, so they will be available if the RAM isn't used.
Ram could be useful if one wants to move some of the number crunching into the FPGA, specially practical since you are using a model with multipliers built in. Are you putting a socket for a extra clock module?
Yes. 73, Leon
