LPC2917/19
ARM9 microcontroller with CAN and LIN
Remark:
If the programmed number of wait-states is more than three, flash-data reading
cannot be performed at full speed (i.e. with zero wait-states at the AHB bus) if speculative
reading is active.
8.2 External static memory controller
8.2.1 Overview
The LPC2917/19 contains an external Static Memory Controller (SMC) which provides an
interface for external (off-chip) memory devices.
Key features are:
•
Supports static memory-mapped devices including RAM, ROM, flash, burst ROM and
external I/O devices
•
Asynchronous page-mode read operation in non-clocked memory subsystems
•
Asynchronous burst-mode read access to burst-mode ROM devices
•
Independent configuration for up to eight banks, each up to 16 MB
•
Programmable bus-turnaround (idle) cycles (one to 16)
•
Programmable read and write wait states (up to 32), for static RAM devices
•
Programmable initial and subsequent burst-read wait state for burst-ROM devices
•
Programmable write protection
•
Programmable burst-mode operation
•
Programmable external data width: 8-bit, 16-bit or 32-bit
•
Programmable read-byte lane enable control
8.2.2 Description
The SMC simultaneously supports up to eight independently configurable memory banks.
Each memory bank can be 8, 16 or 32 bits wide and is capable of supporting SRAM,
ROM, burst-ROM memory or external I/O devices.
A separate chip-select output is available for each bank. The chip-select lines are
configurable to be active HIGH or LOW. Memory-bank selection is controlled by memory
addressing.
Table 10
shows how the 32-bit system address is mapped to the external bus
memory base addresses, chip selects and bank internal addresses.
