NPE-300 Memory Information
Use the following figure and tables for information about the NPE-300 memory location, specifications,
and configurations.
Note The NPE-300 contains two banks of SDRAM. Both SDRAM banks are used for all packet memory
requirements; however, bank 0 is used exclusively for packet memory and is set at a fixed configuration
in the factory.
Bank 1 contains two user-configurable SDRAM slots, DIMM slot 2 and DIMM slot 3. (See Figure 2-5.)
Both slots in bank 1 can be populated by DIMMs of different sizes; however, the size of the DIMM in
slot 2 must be greater than or equal to the size of the DIMM in slot 3, and the size of the DIMM in slot 3
can be zero.
Secondary cache 256 KB
(fixed)
— RM7000 processor unified, internal cache U38
Tertiary cache 4 MB (fixed) — RM7000 processor external cache U2, U26, U27, U28, U37
