30.6 Software Interface/SDRAM Organization, Address Mapping
The SDRAM address space is organized into banks, rows and columns. The DDRSDRC maps different memory types
depending on the values set in the DDRSDRC Configuration Register. See Section 30.7.3 “DDRSDRC Configuration
Register” on page 432. The following figures illustrate the relation between CPU addresses and columns, rows and
banks addresses for 16-bit memory data bus widths and 32-bit memory data bus widths.
The DDRSDRC supports address mapping in linear mode and interleaved mode.
Linear mode is a method for address mapping where banks alternate at each last SDRAM page of current bank.
Interleaved mode is a method for address mapping where banks alternate at each SDRAM end page of current bank.
The DDRSDRC makes the SDRAM devices access protocol transparent to the user. Table 30-1 to Table 30-15 illustrate
the SDRAM device memory mapping seen by the user in correlation with the device structure. Various configurations are
illustrated.
