ARM966E-S SRAM wrapper
The ARM966E-S allows you to have control over the size of the I-SRAM and D-SRAM
(up to a maximum of 64MBytes each). It is not possible to have a single generic
interface between the ARM966E-S and the SRAM, due to the large number of differing
compiled SRAM that can be integrated into an ARM966E-S system, potentially each
with a unique interface.
To ease the task of integrating differing SRAM into the ARM966E-S, an interface
wrapper
block has been developed to ensure that when wrapped, the SRAM provides a
standard interface to the ARM966E-S SRAM control. ARM provides an example
SRAM wrapper containing three example interfaces, see
page 4-8. You must study these examples and decide which is most appropriate for the
type of SRAM available. A script is provided which automates any required changes.
The RAM interface RTL allows you to trade off speed against power performance so
that you can tailor the ARM966E-S to suit a particular requirement.
There are five SRAM modules instantiated at the top-level of the ARM966E-S.
Figure 4-2 shows the structure of these three modules.
