HPS DDR Interface

For the HPS memory controller (DDR interface):

  • Is it possible to swap DQS differential pairs (P/N inversion) through software or configuration?
  • Or must signal polarity strictly be respected at the PCB level?
  • Hi

     

    You are able to do the swapping of a Differential pairs in the device through some RTL logic before the HPS EMIF IP Core.

    However there is no option in the IP to do this.
