Introduction

The SmartFusion2 MSS has an embedded DDR controller. This DDR controller is intended to control an

off-chip DDR memory. The MDDR controller can be accessed from the MSS as well as from the FPGA

fabric. In addition, the DDR controller can also be bypassed, providing an additional interface to the

FPGA fabric (Soft Controller Mode (SMC)).

To fully configure the MSS DDR controller, you must:

1. Select the datapath using the MDDR Configurator.

2. Set the register values for the DDR controller registers.

3. Select the DDR memory clock frequencies and FPGA fabric to MDDR clock ratio (if needed)

using the MSS CCC Configurator.

4. Connect the controller’s APB configuration interface as defined by the Peripheral Initialization

solution. For the MDDR Initialization circuitry built by System Builder, refer to the "MSS DDR

Configuration Path" on page 13 and Figure 2-7.

You can also build your own initialization circuitry using standalone (not by System Builder)

Peripheral Initialization. Refer to the SmartFusion2 Standalone Peripheral Initialization User

Guide.

1 – MDDR Configurator

The MDDR Configurator is used to configure the overall datapath and the external DDR Memory

Parameters for the MSS DDR controller.

The General tab sets your Memory and Fabric Interface settings (Figure 1-1).

Memory Settings

Enter the DDR Memory Settling Time. This is the time the DDR memory requires to initialize. The default

value is 200 us. Refer to your DDR Memory Data Sheet for the correct value to enter.

Use Memory Settings to configure your memory options in the MDDR.

•Memory Type - LPDDR, DDR2, or DDR3

•Data Width - 32-bit, 16-bit or 8-bit

•SECDED Enabled ECC - ON or OFF

•Arbitration Scheme - Type-0, Type -1, Type-2,Type-3

•Highest Priority ID - Valid values are from 0 through 15

•Address Width (bits) - Refer to your DDR Memory Data Sheet for the number of row, bank, and

column address bits for the LPDDR/DDR2/DDR3 memory you use. select the pull-down menu to

choose the correct value for rows/banks/columns as per the data sheet of the LPDDR/DDR2/

DDR3 memory.

Note: The number in the pull-down list refers to the number of Address bits, not the absolute number of

rows/banks/columns. For example, if your DDR memory has 4 banks, select 2 (22=4) for banks. If

your DDR memory has 8 banks, select 3 (23=8) for banks.

Figure 1-1 • MDDR Configurator Overview

Fabric Interface Settings

By default, the hard Cortex-M3 processor is set up to access the DDR Controller. You can also allow a

fabric Master to access the DDR Controller by enabling the Fabric Interface Setting checkbox. In this

case, you can choose one of the following options:

•Use an AXI Interface - The fabric Master accesses the DDR Controller through a 64-bit AXI

interface.

•Use a Single AHBLite Interface - The fabric Master accesses the DDR Controller through a

single 32-bit AHB interface.

•Use two AHBLite Interfaces - Two fabric Masters access the DDR Controller using two 32-bit

AHB interfaces.

The configuration view (Figure 1-1) updates according to your Fabric Interface selection.

I/O Drive Strength (DDR2 and DDR3 only)

Select one of the following drive strengths for your DDR I/Os:

• Half Drive Strength

• Full Drive Strength

Libero SoC sets the DDR I/O Standard for your MDDR system based on your DDR Memory type and I/O

Drive Strength (as shown in Table 1-1).

IO Standard (LPDDR only)

Select one of the following options:

• LVCMOS18 (Lowest Power) for LVCMOS 1.8V IO standard. Used in typical LPDDR1

applications.

• LPDDRI Note: Before you choose this standard, make sure that your board supports this

standard. You must use this option when targeting the M2S-EVAL-KIT or the SF2-STARTER-KIT

boards. LPDDRI IO standards require that a IMP_CALIB resistor is installed on the board.

IO Calibration (LPDDR only)

Choose one of the following options when using LVCMOS18 IO standard:

•On

• Off (Typical)

Calibration ON and OFF optionally controls the use of an IO calibration block that calibrates the IO

drivers to an external resistor. When OFF, the device uses a preset IO driver adjustment.

When ON, this requires a 150-ohm IMP_CALIB resistor to be installed on the PCB.

This is used to calibrate the IO to the PCB characteristics. However, when set to ON, a resistor needs to

be installed or the memory controller will not initialize.

For more information, refer to AC393-SmartFusion2 and IGLOO2 Board Design Guidelines Application

Note and the SmartFusion2 SoC FPGA High Speed DDR Interfaces User Guide.

2 – MDDR Controller Configuration

When you use the MSS DDR Controller to access an external DDR Memory, the DDR Controller must be

configured at runtime. This is done by writing configuration data to dedicated DDR controller

configuration registers. This configuration data is dependent on the characteristics of the external DDR

memory and your application. This section describes how to enter these configuration parameters in the

MSS DDR controller configurator and how the configuration data is managed as part of the overall

Peripheral Initialization solution.

MSS DDR Control Registers

The MSS DDR Controller has a set of registers that need to be configured at runtime. The configuration

values for these registers represent different parameters, such as DDR mode, PHY width, burst mode,

and ECC. For complete details about the DDR controller configuration registers, refer to the

SmartFusion2 SoC FPGA High Speed DDR Interfaces User's Guide.

MDDR Registers Configuration

Use the Memory Initialization (Figure 2-1, Figure 2-2, and Figure 2-3) and Memory Timing (Figure 2-4)

tabs to enter parameters that correspond to your DDR Memory and application. Values you enter in

these tabs are automatically translated to the appropriate register values. When you click a specific

parameter, its corresponding register is described in the Register Description pane (lower portion in

Figure 1-1 on page 4).

Memory Initialization

The Memory Initialization tab allows you to configure the ways you want your LPDDR/DDR2/DDR3

memories initialized. The menu and options available in the Memory Initialization tab vary with the type of

DDR memory (LPDDR/DDR2/DDR3) you use.

Refer to your DDR Memory Data Sheet when you configure the options.

When you change or enter a value, the Register Description pane gives you the register name and

Figure 2-1, Figure 2-2, and Figure 2-3 show the Initialization tab for LPDDR, DDR2 and DDR3,

respectively.

•Timing Mode - Select 1T or 2T Timing mode. In 1T (the default mode), the DDR controller can

issue a new command on every clock cycle. In 2T timing mode, the DDR controller holds the

address and command bus valid for two clock cycles. This reduces the efficiency of the bus to

one command per two clocks, but it doubles the amount of setup and hold time.

•Partial-Array Self Refresh (LPDDR only). This feature is for power saving for the LPDDR.

Select one of the following for the controller to refresh the amount of memory during a self

refresh:

– Full array: Banks 0, 1,2, and 3

– Half array: Banks 0 and 1

– Quarter array: Bank 0

– One-eighth array: Bank 0 with row address MSB=0

– One-sixteenth array: Bank 0 with row address MSB and MSB-1 both equal to 0.

For all other options, refer to your DDR Memory Data Sheet when you configure the options.

Figure 2-1 • MDDR Configuration—Memory Initialization Parameters (LPDDR)

Figure 2-2 • MDDR Configuration—Memory Initialization Parameters (DDR2)

Memory Timing

This tab allows you to configure the Memory Timing parameters. Refer to the Data Sheet of your LPDDR/

DDR2/DDR3 memory when configuring the Memory Timing parameters.

When you change or enter a value, the Register Description pane gives you the register name and

Figure 2-3 • MDDR Configuration—Memory Initialization Paramet ers (DDR3)

Importing DDR Configuration Files

In addition to entering DDR Memory parameters using the Memory Initialization and Timing tabs, you can

import DDR register values from a file. To do so, click the Import Configuration button and navigate to

the text file containing DDR register names and values. Figure 2-5 shows the import configuration

syntax.
