Description

i think the ROM entry in the library reference could use an update. first, the guide says that two ROMS will always have the same values; i'm pretty sure this is not true anymore. also, it says each value can be up to 32-bit; now, it can go up to 64-bit. also, it doesn't have an image of the new look of the ROM. and, to my knowledge, the ROM doesn't include a select pin anymore. i think it would be less confusing if this was fixed, mainly when beginners are confused why there's no sel pin. either than that, to my knowledge, the library reference is fine. thanks for reading (:

Contributor guide

Research direction
Check the current ROM component behavior in the simulator and update the library reference guide accordingly. Remove outdated info about always same values, update bit width to 64 bit, add new image, and remove mention of select pin.
