ADSP-21065L to Micron's MT48LC2M32B2

Started by Unknown December 13, 2004


Hi,

For a project I'm working on, I need SDRAM interfacing to the
ADSP-21065L (my very first project involving design with SDRAM parts).
One suitable part is the MT48LC2M32B2 from Micron. Has anyone already
used this part or any other very similar for interfacing to the 065L?
Any special requeriments or considerations to take caro of? The nicest
things about this part are its direct 32 bit data support, and low
price.

I have one doubt: this part is 4-banked (BA1, BA0). AD13 and AD12
should be used as the bank select signals, but I don't know how
exactly is the connection, either AD13-BA1 and AD12-BA0, or otherwise.
Please clarify this to me.

Something else: there is only one DQM signal on the DSP, and four DQMs
on the SDRAM, for each byte of data. Can the DQM signal be directly
connected to all of the DQM0-3 on the SDRAM directly? I suspect the
answer is "yes", since it's output of the DSP and input to the SDRAM
when writting, and tristated in both parts when reading; I just want
you guys to confirm this, since I don't want to do hardware redesigns,
which is rather expensive.
