Peripheral Architecture
The DDR2 memory controller can gluelessly interface to most standard DDR2 SDRAM devices and
supports such features as self-refresh mode and prioritized refresh. In addition, it provides flexibility
through programmable parameters such as the refresh rate, CAS latency, and many SDRAM timing
parameters.
The following sections describe the architecture of the DDR2 memory controller as well as how to
interface and configure it to perform read and write operations to DDR2 SDRAM devices. Also, Section 3
provides a detailed example of interfacing the DDR2 memory controller to a common DDR2 SDRAM
device.
2.1 Clock Control
The DDR2 memory controller is clocked directly from the output of the second phase-locked loop (PLL2)
of the device. The PLL2 multiplies its input clock by 20. This clock is divided by 2 to generate DDR_CLK.
The frequency of DDR_CLK can be determined by using the following formula:
DDR_CLK frequency = (PLL2 input clock frequency×20)/2 = PLL2 input clock frequency×10
The second output clock of the DDR2 memory controller, DDR_CLK, is the inverse of DDR_CLK. For
more information on the PLL2, see the device-specific data manual.
2.2 Memory Map
Please see the device-specific data manual for information describing the device memory map.
2.3 Signal Descriptions
features are included:
•
•
•
•
The maximum width for the data bus (DDR_D[31:0]) is 32-bits.
The address bus (DDR_A[13:0]) is 14-bits wide with an additional 3 bank address pins (DDR_BA[2:0]).
Two differential output clocks (DDR_CLK and DDR_CLK) driven by internal clock sources.
Command signals: Row and column address strobe (DDR_RAS and DDR_CAS), write enable strobe
(DDR_WE), data strobe (DDR_DQS[3:0] and DDR_DQS[3:0]), and data mask (DDR_DQM[3:0]).
•
•

2.4.1
Mode Register Set (MRS and EMRS)
DDR2 SDRAM contains mode and extended mode registers that configure the DDR2 memory for
operation. These registers control burst type, burst length, CAS latency, DLL enable/disable, single-ended
strobe, etc.
The DDR2 memory controller programs the mode and extended mode registers of the DDR2 memory by
issuing MRS and EMRS commands. When the MRS or EMRS command is executed, the value on
DDR_BA[1:0] selects the mode register to be written and the data on DDR_A[12:0] is loaded into the
The DDR2 memory controller only issues MRS and EMRS commands during the DDR2 memory controller

Refresh Mode
automatically preceded by a DCAB command, ensuring the deactivation of all CE spaces and banks
selected. Following the DCAB command, the DDR2 memory controller begins performing refreshes at a
rate defined by the refresh rate (REFRESH_RATE) bit in the SDRAM refresh control register (SDRFC).
Page information is always invalid before and after a REFR command; thus, a refresh cycle always forces
a page miss. This type of refresh cycle is often called autorefresh. Autorefresh commands may not be
scheduling.

Activation (ACTV)
The DDR2 memory controller automatically issues the activate (ACTV) command before a read or write to
a closed row of memory. The ACTV command opens a row of memory, allowing future accesses (reads or
writes) with minimum latency. The value of DDR_BA[2:0] selects the bank and the value of A[12:0] selects
the row. When the DDR2 memory controller issues an ACTV command, a delay of tRCD is incurred before
the currently active row and bank of memory can achieve much higher throughput than reads or writes to
random areas because every time a new row is accessed, the ACTV command must be issued and a
delay of tRCD incurred.

Deactivation (DCAB and DEAC)
The precharge all banks command (DCAB) is performed after a reset to the DDR2 memory controller or
following the initialization sequence. DDR2 SDRAMs also require this cycle prior to a refresh (REFR) and
mode set register commands (MRS and EMRS). During a DCAB command, DDR_A[10] is driven high to

READ Command
command initiates a burst read operation to an active row. During the READ command, DDR_CAS drives
low, DDR_WE and DDR_RAS remain high, the column address is driven on DDR_A[12:0], and the bank
address is driven on DDR_BA[2:0].
The DDR2 memory controller uses a burst length of 8, and has a programmable CAS latency of 2, 3, 4, or
5. The CAS latency is three cycles in Figure 8. Read latency is equal to CAS latency plus additive latency.
The DDR2 memory controller always configures the memory to have an additive latency of 0, so read
latency equals CAS latency. Since the default burst size is 8, the DDR2 memory controller returns 8
pieces of data for every read command. If additional accesses are not pending to the DDR2 memory
controller, the read burst completes and the unneeded data is disregarded. If additional accesses are
pending, depending on the scheduling result, the DDR2 memory controller can terminate the read burst
and start a new read burst. Furthermore, the DDR2 memory controller does not issue a DCAB/DEAC
command until page information becomes invalid.

Write (WRT) Command
Prior to a WRT command, the desired bank and row are activated by the ACTV command. Following the
WRT command, a write latency is incurred. Write latency is equal to CAS latency minus 1. All writes have
a burst length of 8. The use of the DDR_DQM outputs allows byte and halfword writes to be executed.
If the transfer request is for less than 8 words, depending on the scheduling result and the pending
commands, the DDR2 memory controller can:
•
•
Mask out the additional data using DDR_DQM outputs
Terminate the write burst and start a new write burst
The DDR2 memory controller does not perform the DEAC command until page information becomes

2.6 Address Mapping
The DDR2 memory controller views external DDR2 SDRAM as one continuous block of memory. This
statement is true regardless of the number of memory devices located on the chip select space. The
DDR2 memory controller receives DDR2 memory access requests along with a 32-bit logical address from
the rest of the system. In turn, DDR2 memory controller uses the logical address to generate a row/page,
column, and bank address for the DDR2 SDRAM. The number of column and bank address bits used is
14 bits for the row/page address.

be used for memory addressing, as the DDR2 memory controller has a maximum addressable memory
range of 256 Mbytes.
The DDR2 memory controller address pins provide the row and column address to the DDR2 SDRAM,
thus the DDR2 memory controller appropriately shifts the logical address during row and column address
selection. The bank address is driven to the DDR2 SDRAM using the bank address pins. The two lower
bits of the logical address decode the value of the byte enable pins (only used for accesses less than the
width of the DDR2 memory controller data bus).

Peripheral Architecture
Figure 11 shows how the DSP memory map is partitioned into columns, rows, and banks. Note that during
a linear access, the DDR2 memory controller increments the column address as the logical address
increments. When the DDR2 memory controller reaches a page/row boundary, it moves onto the same
page/row in the next bank. This movement continues until the same page has been accessed in all banks.
By traversing across banks while remaining on the same row/page, the DDR2 memory controller
maximizes the number of activated banks for a linear access. This results in the maximum number of
open pages when performing a linear access being equal to the number of banks. Note that the DDR2
memory controller never opens more than one page per bank.
Ending the current access is not a condition that forces the active DDR2 SDRAM row/page to be closed.
The DDR2 memory controller leaves the active row open until it becomes necessary to close it. This
decreases the deactivate-reactivate overhead.

2.7 DDR2 Memory Controller Interface
To move data efficiently from on-chip resources to external DDR2 SDRAM device, the DDR2 memory
controller makes use of a command FIFO, a write FIFO, a read FIFO, and command and data schedulers.
read data arrive at the DDR2 memory controller parallel to each other. The same peripheral bus is used to
write and read data from external memory as well as internal memory-mapped registers.

Command Ordering and Scheduling, Advanced Concept
The DDR2 memory controller performs command re-ordering and scheduling in an attempt to achieve
efficient transfers with maximum throughput. The goal is to maximize the utilization of the data, address,
and command buses while hiding the overhead of opening and closing DDR2 SDRAM rows. Command
re-ordering takes place within the command FIFO.
The DDR2 memory controller examines all the commands stored in the command FIFO to schedule
commands to the external memory. For each master, the DDR2 memory controller reorders the
commands based on the following rules:
•
•
Selects the oldest command
A read command is advanced before an older write command if the read is to a different block address
(2048 bytes) and the read priority is equal to or greater than the write priority.
Note: Most masters issue commands on a single priority level. Also, the EDMA transfer controller
read and write ports are considered different masters, and thus, the above rule does not
apply.
The second bullet above may be viewed as an exception to the first bullet. This means that for an
individual master, all of its commands will complete from oldest to newest, with the exception that a read
may be advanced ahead of an older, lower or equal priority write. Following this scheduling, each master
may have one command ready for execution.

Peripheral Architecture
Next, the DDR2 memory controller examines each of the commands selected by the individual masters
and performs the following reordering:
•
Among all pending reads, selects reads to rows already open. Among all pending writes, selects writes
to rows already open.
•
Selects the highest priority command from pending reads and writes to open rows. If multiple
commands have the highest priority, then the DDR2 memory controller selects the oldest command.
The DDR2 memory controller may now have a final read and write command. If the Read FIFO is not full,
then the read command will be performed before the write command, otherwise the write command will be
performed first.
Besides commands received from on-chip resources, the DDR2 memory controller also issues refresh
commands. The DDR2 memory controller attempts to delay refresh commands as long as possible to
maximize performance while meeting the SDRAM refresh requirements. As the DDR2 memory controller
issues read, write, and refresh commands to DDR2 SDRAM device, it follows the following priority
scheme:
1. (Highest) Refresh request resulting from the Refresh Must level of urgency (see Section 2.8) being
reached
2. Read request without a higher priority write (selected from above reordering algorithm)
4. Write request (selected from above reordering algorithm)
6. (Lowest) Request to enter self-refresh mode
The following results from the above scheduling algorithm:
•
•
•
All writes from a single master will complete in order
All reads from a single master will complete in order
From the same master, any read to the same location (or within 2048 bytes) as a previous write will
complete in order
2.7.2
Command Starvation
The reordering and scheduling rules listed above may lead to command starvation, which is the
prevention of certain commands from being processed by the DDR2 memory controller. Command
starvation results from the following conditions:
•
•
A continuous stream of high-priority read commands can block a low-priority write command
A continuous stream of DDR2 SDRAM commands to a row in an open bank can block commands to
the closed row in the same bank.
To avoid these conditions, the DDR2 memory controller can momentarily raise the priority of the oldest
command in the command FIFO after a set number of transfers have been made. The PRIO_RAISE field
in the Burst Priority Register (BPRIO) sets the number of the transfers that must be made before the
DDR2 memory controller will raise the priority of the oldest command.
Note: Leaving the PRIO_RAISE bits at their default value (FFh) disables this feature of the DDR2
memory controller. This means commands can stay in the command FIFO indefinitely.
Therefore, these bits should be set to FEh immediately following reset to enable this feature
with the highest level of allowable memory transfers. It is suggested that system-level
prioritization be set to avoid placing high-bandwidth masters on the highest priority levels.
These bits can be left as FEh unless advanced bandwidth/prioritization control is required.

2.7.3
Possible Race Condition
A race condition may exist when certain masters write data to the DDR2 memory controller. For example,
if master A passes a software message via a buffer in DDR2 memory and does not wait for indication that
the write completes, when master B attempts to read the software message it may read stale data and
therefore receive an incorrect message. In order to confirm that a write from master A has landed before a
read from master B is performed, master A must wait for the write completion status from the DDR2
memory controller before indicating to master B that the data is ready to be read. If master A does not
wait for indication that a write is complete, it must perform the following workaround:
1. Perform the required write.
2. Perform a dummy write to the DDR2 memory controller module ID and revision register.
3. Perform a dummy read to the DDR2 memory controller module ID and revision register.
4. Indicate to master B that the data is ready to be read after completion of the read in step 3. The
completion of the read in step 3 ensures that the previous write was done.
For a list of the master peripherals that need this workaround, see the device-specific data sheet.
2.8 Refresh Scheduling
The DDR2 memory controller issues autorefresh (REFR) commands to DDR2 SDRAM devices at a rate
defined in the refresh rate (REFRESH_RATE) bit field in the SDRAM refresh control register (SDRFC). A
refresh interval counter is loaded with the value of the REFRESH_RATE bit field and decrements by 1
each cycle until it reaches zero. Once the interval counter reaches zero, it reloads with the value of the
REFRESH_RATE bit. Each time the interval counter expires, a refresh backlog counter increments by 1.
Conversely, each time the DDR2 memory controller performs a REFR command, the backlog counter
decrements by 1. This means the refresh backlog counter records the number of REFR commands the
DDR2 memory controller currently has outstanding.
The DDR2 memory controller issues REFR commands based on the level of urgency. The level of
controller issues a REFR command before servicing any new memory access requests. Following a REFR
command, the DDR2 memory controller waits T_RFC cycles, defined in the SDRAM timing 1 register
(SDTIM1), before rechecking the refresh urgency level.
In addition to the refresh counter previously mentioned, a separate backlog counter ensures the interval
between two REFR commands does not exceed 8× the refresh rate. This backlog counter increments by 1
each time the interval counter expires and resets to zero when the DDR2 memory controller issues a
REFR command. When this backlog counter is greater than 7, the DDR2 memory controller issues four
REFR commands before servicing any new memory requests.
The refresh counters do not operate when the DDR2 memory is in self-refresh mode.

2.9 Self-Refresh Mode
Setting the self refresh (SR) bit in the SDRAM refresh control register (SDRFC) to 1 forces the DDR2
memory controller to place the external DDR2 SDRAM in a low-power mode (self refresh), in which the
DDR2 SDRAM maintains valid data while consuming a minimal amount of power. When the SR bit is
asserted, the DDR2 memory controller continues normal operation until all outstanding memory access
requests have been serviced and the refresh backlog has been cleared. At this point, all open pages of
DDR2 SDRAM are closed and a self-refresh (SLFRFR) command (an autorefresh command with
DDR_CKE low) is issued.
The DDR2 memory controller exits the self-refresh state when a memory access is received or when the
SR bit in SDRFC is cleared. While in the self-refresh state, if a request for a memory access is received,
the DDR2 memory controller services the memory access request, returning to the self-refresh state upon
completion.
The DDR2 memory controller will not exit the self-refresh state (whether from a memory access request or
from clearing the SR bit) until T_CKE + 1 cycles have expired since the self-refresh command was issued.
The value of T_CKE is defined in the SDRAM timing 2 register (SDTIM2).
After exiting from the self-refresh state, the DDR2 memory controller will not immediately start using
commands. Instead, it will wait T_SXNR + 1 clock cycles before issuing non-read commands and
T_SXRD + 1 clock cycles before issuing read commands. The SDRAM timing 2 register (SDTIM2)
programs the values of T_SXNR and T_SXRD.
2.10 Reset Considerations
The DDR2 memory controller has two reset signals, VRST and VCTL_RST. VRST is a module-level reset
that resets both the state machine and the DDR2 memory controller memory-mapped registers.
VCTL_RST resets the state machine only. If the DDR2 memory controller is reset independently of other
peripherals, your software should not perform memory or register accesses while VRST or VCTL_RST are
asserted. If memory or register accesses are performed while the DDR2 memory controller is in the reset
state, other masters may hang. Following the rising edge of VRST or VCTL_RST, the DDR2 memory
controller FIFOs are lost. Table 8 describes the different methods for asserting each reset signal. The
Power and Sleep Controller (PSC) acts as a master controller for power management for all of the
peripherals on the device.

2.11 DDR2 SDRAM Memory Initialization
DDR2 SDRAM devices contain mode and extended mode registers that configure the mode of operation
for the device. These registers control parameters such as burst type, burst length, and CAS latency. The
DDR2 memory controller programs the mode and extended mode registers of the DDR2 memory by
Section 2.11.3. The initialization sequence performed by the DDR2 memory controller is compliant with
the JESDEC79-2A specification.
The DDR2 memory controller performs the initialization sequence under the following conditions:
•
•
Following a write to the two least-significant bytes in the SDRAM configuration register (SDCFG); see
At the end of the initialization sequence, the DDR2 memory controller performs an auto-refresh cycle,
leaving the DDR2 memory controller in an idle state with all banks deactivated.
When the initialization section is started automatically after a hard or soft reset, commands and data
stored in the DDR2 memory controller FIFOs are lost. However, when the initialization sequence is
initiated by a write to the two least-significant bytes in SDCFG, data and commands stored in the DDR2
memory controller FIFOs are not lost and the DDR2 memory controller ensures read and write commands
are completed before starting the initialization sequence.

2.11.2 DDR2 SDRAM Initialization After Reset
After a hard or a soft reset, the DDR2 memory controller will automatically start the initialization sequence.
The DDR2 memory controller will use the default values in the SDRAM timing 1 and timing 2 registers and
the SDRAM configuration register to configure the mode registers of the DDR2 SDRAM device(s). Note
that since a soft reset does not reset the DDR2 memory controller registers, an initialization sequence
started by a soft reset would use the register values from a previous configuration.
2.11.3 DDR2 SDRAM Initialization After Register Configuration
The initialization sequence can also be initiated by performing a write to the two least-significant bytes in
the SDRAM configuration register (SDCFG). Using this approach, data and commands stored in the
DDR2 memory controller FIFOs are not lost and the DDR2 memory controller ensures read and write
commands are completed before starting the initialization sequence.
Perform the following steps to start the initialization sequence:
1. Set the BOOT_UNLOCK bit in the SDRAM configuration register (SDCFG).
2. Write a 0 to the BOOT_UNLOCK bit along with the desired value for the DDR_DRIVE bit.
3. Program the rest of the SDCFG to the desired value with the TIMUNLOCK bit set (unlocked).
4. Program the SDRAM timing 1 register (SDTIM1) and SDRAM timing register 2 (SDTIM2) with the
value needed to meet the DDR2 SDRAM device timings.
5. Program the REFRESH_RATE bits in the SDRAM refresh control register (SDRFC) to a value that
meets the refresh requirements of the DDR2 SDRAM device.
6. Program SDCFG with the desired value and the TIMUNLOCK bit cleared (locked).
7. Program the read latency (RL) bit in the DDR2 memory controller control register (DMCCTL) to the
desired value.
2.12 Interrupt Support
The DDR2 memory controller does not generate any interrupts.
2.13 EDMA Event Support
The DDR2 memory controller is a DMA slave peripheral and therefore does not generate EDMA events.
Data read and write requests may be made directly by masters including the EDMA controller.
2.14 Emulation Considerations
The DDR2 memory controller will remain fully functional during emulation halts to allow emulation access
to external memory.

Not all of the memory topologies shown may be supported by your device. See the device-specific data
manual for more information.
Printed circuit board (PCB) layout rules and connection requirements between the DSP and the memory
device exist and are described in a separate document. See the device-specific data manual for more
information. The ODT output pins of the DDR2 memory controller must not be connected to the ODT input
pins of DDR2 memory devices. Instead, the ODT input pins of the DDR2 memory devices should be
connected to ground and the ODT output pins of the DDR2 memory controller must be left unconnected.
The ODT output pins of the DDR2 memory controller are reserved for future use.

Using the DDR2 Memory Controller
3.2 Configuring DDR2 Memory Controller Registers to Meet DDR2 SDRAM Specifications
The DDR2 memory controller allows a high degree of programmability for shaping DDR2 accesses. This
provides the DDR2 memory controller with the flexibility to interface with a variety of DDR2 devices. By
programming the SDRAM Configuration Register (SDCFG), SDRAM Refresh Control Register (SDRFC),
SDRAM Timing 1 Register (SDTIM1), and SDRAM Timing 2 Register (SDTIM2), the DDR2 memory
controller can be configured to meet the data sheet specification for JESD79D-2A compliant DDR2
SDRAM devices.
As an example, the following sections describe how to configure each of these registers for access to two
following configuration:
•
•
•
•
Maximum data rate: 533MHz
Number of banks: 8
Page size: 1024 words
CAS latency: 4
It is assumed that the frequency of the DDR2 memory controller clock (DDR_CLK) is set to 266.5MHz.
3.2.1
Programming the SDRAM Configuration Register (SDCFG)
The SDRAM configuration register (SDCFG) contains register fields that configure the DDR2 memory
controller to match the data bus width, CAS latency, number of banks, and page size of the attached
DDR2 memory.

Programming the SDRAM Refresh Control Register (SDRFC)
The SDRAM refresh control register (SDRFC) configures the DDR2 memory controller to meet the refresh
requirements of the attached DDR2 device. SDRFC also allows the DDR2 memory controller to enter and
exit self refresh. In this example, we assume that the DDR2 memory controller is not is in self-refresh
mode.
The REFRESH_RATE field in SDRFC is defined as the rate at which the attached DDR2 device is
refreshed in DDR2 cycles. The value of this field may be calculated using the following equation:
REFRESH_RATE = DDR_CLK frequency × memory refresh period

DDR2 Memory Controller Registers
4.5 SDRAM Timing 1 Register (SDTIM1)
The SDRAM timing 1 register (SDTIM1) configures the DDR2 memory controller to meet many of the AC
timing specification of the DDR2 memory. Note that DDR_CLK is equal to the period of the DDR_CLK
signal. See the DDR2 memory data sheet for information on the appropriate values to program each field.
The bit fields in the SDTIM1 register are only writeable when the TIMUNLOCK bit of the SDRAM

DDR2 Memory Controller Registers
4.7 Burst Priority Register (BPRIO)
The Burst Priority Register (BPRIO) helps prevent command starvation within the DDR2 memory
controller. To avoid command starvation, the DDR2 memory controller momentarily raises the priority of
the oldest command in the command FIFO after a set number of transfers have been made. The
PRIO_RAISE bit sets the number of transfers that must be made before the DDR2 memory controller
raises the priority of the oldest command. The BPRIO is shown in Figure 26 and described in Table 24.
