Honored ContributorHow to Connect to SOPC Avalong Bus from outside of SOPC
I'm using the SDRAM with Nios and SOPC, but I also need to write to the SDRAM via logic that is outside the SOPC. How is this typically done? I'm assuming I would need to create a peripheral ...

Honored Contributor --- Quote Start --- SDRAM has a high latency and many clock cycles are necessary before a word can be written or read. You can reach Avalon speeds by using bursts, but AFAIK this is only supported by the DDR controller and not the SDR SDRAM. --- Quote End --- I did experiment using different memory (on chip ram, sram, sdram), but I couldn't see any difference.., the go strobe always needs to be a fraction of the avalon clock in order for it to work.
