7.1.1.1 General-Purpose Memory Controller (GPMC)

Some AM261 devices offer a General-Purpose Memory Controller (GPMC) peripheral which is a unified memory controller dedicated for interfacing with external memory devices.

Devices that can be interfaced via the GPMC include:

  • Asynchronous SRAM-like memories and application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) devices
  • Asynchronous, synchronous, and page mode (available only in non-multiplexed mode) burst NOR flash
  • devices
  • NAND flash
  • Pseudo-SRAM devices

The GPMC can support memories up to 4MB in size, and supports 8, 16, or 32-bit wide data paths to external devices.
