What’s the eMMC max data rate the cyclone V supported with 8-bit data bus?

In Cyclone V TRM(cv_5v4, 2020.02.28), it shows that MMC V4.41 8-bit data bus is currently supported. DDR timing is supported for eMMC too.

According to the MMC 4.41 specification, with 52MHz clock speed,eMMC can get maximum data rate to 52MB/s in single data rate mode and 104MB/s in dual data rate mode.

But in In Cyclone V TRM, the table shows that the maximum data rate is 25MB/s.

That’s quite confusing.

So does current Cyclone V support eMMC V4.41 8-bit dual data rate mode?

What’s the max data rate the cyclone V supported with 8-bit data bus?

There’s additional information about this question.

In Cyclone V TRM cv_5v4 (2014.12.15), eMMC 8-bit data bus /DDR mode was not suppported at that time. But the max data rate was 25MB/s by then. I think the max data rate should be improved while cyclone V supports eMMC 8-bit data bus and DDR mode, is that right?

Thanks

  • Hi,


    Answering your questions:


    Unfortunately, dual data rate is not supported, and the max supported speed is as stated in our Cyclone V TRM which is 25Mbps for 8-bit data.


    For Cyclone V SoC, eMMC version 4.41 does not support DDR.
