6.12.2 GPMC

The General Purpose Memory Controller (GPMC) is an external memory controller of the device. Its data access engine provides a flexible programming model for communication with all standard memories.

The GPMC supports the following various access types:

  • Asynchronous read/write access
  • Asynchronous read page access (4, 8, and 16 Word16)
  • Synchronous read/write access
  • Synchronous read/write burst access without wrap capability (4, 8 and 16 Word16)
  • Synchronous read/write burst access with wrap capability (4, 8 and 16 Word16)
  • Address-data-multiplexed (AD) access
  • Address-address-data (AAD) multiplexed access
  • Little- and big-endian access

The GPMC can communicate with a wide range of external devices:

  • External asynchronous or synchronous 8-bit wide memory or device (non burst device)
  • External asynchronous or synchronous 16-bit wide memory or device
  • External 16-bit non-multiplexed NOR flash device
  • External 16-bit address and data multiplexed NOR Flash device
  • External 8-bit and 16-bit NAND flash device
  • External 16-bit pseudo-SRAM (pSRAM) device

The main features of the GPMC are:

  • 8- or 16-bit-wide data path to external memory device
  • Supports up to eight CS regions of programmable size and programmable base addresses in a total address space of 1 GiB
  • Supports transactions controlled by a firewall
  • On-the-fly error code detection using the Bose-ChaudhurI-Hocquenghem (BCH) (t = 4, 8, or 16) or Hamming code to improve the reliability of NAND with a minimum effect on software (NAND flash with 512-byte page size or greater)
  • Fully pipelined operation for optimal memory bandwidth use
  • The clock to the external memory is provided from GPMC functional clock divided by 1, 2, 3, or 4
  • Supports programmable autoclock gating when no access is detected
  • Independent and programmable control signal timing parameters for setup and hold time on a per-chip basis. Parameters are set according to the memory device timing parameters, with a timing granularity of one GPMC functional clock cycle.
  • Flexible internal access time control (WAIT state) and flexible handshake mode using external WAIT pin monitoring
  • Support bus keeping
  • Support bus turnaround
  • Prefetch and write posting engine associated with to achieve full performance from the NAND device with minimum effect on NOR/SRAM concurrent access
