9 years agoI'm afraid it doesn't tell you what you want to hear but see this Support Solution - "does the max 10 uniphy ip support sdr sdram or sram? (https://www.altera.com/support/support-resources/knowledge-base/solutions/rd09282015_250.html)".
If you must use MAX 10 you'll have to consider using BGAs. There are plenty of Altera references to copy: Have a look at Altera's "max 10 fpga 10m50 evaluation kit (https://www.altera.com/products/boards_and_kits/dev-kits/altera/kit-max-10m50-evaluation.html)". This features a LPDDR2 memory device. Also, the "max 10 fpga development kit (https://www.altera.com/products/boards_and_kits/dev-kits/altera/max-10-fpga-development-kit.html)" which features a DDR3 device. If you must use SDRAM then search Altera for "sdr sdram ip (https://www.altera.com/bin/search?q=sdr+sdram+ip&client=cq_www_frontend&output=xml_no_dtd&proxystylesheet=cq_www_frontend&ie=utf-8&sort=date%3ad%3al%3ad1&entqr=3&entsp=a&oe=utf-8&ud=1&getfields=*&entqrm=0&site=cq_www)". However, you will have to consider a different FPGA family, unless you wish to write the IP yourself. There's no reason you can't interface SDR SDRAM to MAX 10, it's simply that Altera's IP doesn't support that. Cheers, Alex
