Introduction
4-5
Memory Interface Traffic Controller
The TC provides each of the four hosts with:
-
32-bit single or burst access to memory (must be aligned with a[1-0] = 00)
-
Size adaptation for 8-, 16-, or 32-bit words, with the requirement that
address must be aligned on the correct bit boundary. For example, 32-bit
access must be aligned on 32-bit boundary, 16-bit access must be aligned
on 16-bit boundary, and so forth.
-
Access duration management (wait state insertion) to enable the
connection of slow memory devices
-
Memory control signal generation (chip-select, memory-specific protocol
generation)
-
Single accesses for 8-bit or 16-bit words, except the TC supports 16-bit
word bursts from the EMIFF or IMIF to the LCD controller
