C6455/C6454 DDR2 Memory Controller

1 Introduction

1.1Purpose of the Peripheral

The DDR2 memory controller is used to interface with JESD79-2B standard compliant DDR2 SDRAM devices. Memory types such as DDR1 SDRAM, SDR SDRAM, SBSRAM, and asynchronous memories are not supported. The DDR2 memory controller SDRAM can be used for program and data storage.

1.2Features

The DDR2 memory controller supports the following features:

JESD79-2B standard compliant DDR2 SDRAM

512M byte memory space

Data bus width of 32 or 16 bits

CAS latencies: 2, 3, 4, and 5

Internal banks: 1, 2, 4, and 8

Burst length: 8

Burst type: sequential

1 CE signal

Page sizes: 256, 512, 1024, and 2048

SDRAM autoinitialization

Self-refresh mode

Prioritized refresh

Programmable refresh rate and backlog counter

Programmable timing parameters

Little endian and big endian transfers

1.3Functional Block Diagram

The DDR2 memory controller is the main interface to external DDR2 memory (see Figure 1). Master peripherals, such as the EDMA controller and the CPU can access the DDR2 memory controller through the switched central resource (SCR). The DDR2 memory controller performs all memory-related background tasks such as opening and closing banks, refreshes, and command arbitration.
