PoC.mem.sdram

The namespace PoC.mem.sdram offers components for the access of external SDRAMs. A common finite state-machine is used to address the memory via banks, rows and columns. Different physical layers are provide for the single-data-rate (SDR) or double-data-rate (DDR, DDR2, …) data bus. One has to instantiate the specific module required by the FPGA board.

SDRAM Controller for the Altera DE0 Board

The module sdram_ctrl_de0 combines the finite state machine sdram_ctrl_fsm and the DE0 specific physical layer sdram_ctrl_phy_de0. It has been tested with the IS42S16400F SDR memory at a frequency of 133 MHz. A usage example is given in PoC-Examples.

SDRAM Controller for the Xilinx Spartan-3E Starter Kit (S3ESK)

The module sdram_ctrl_s3esk combines the finite state machine sdram_ctrl_fsm and the S3ESK specific physical layer sdram_ctrl_phy_s3esk. It has been tested with the MT46V32M16-6T DDR memory at a frequency of 100 MHz (DDR-200). A usage example is given in PoC-Examples.
