For past designs, I've used the UniPHY SDRAM memory controller for a DDR memory interface. That controller contained a multi-port front end (MPFE) which could be used to create multiple s...

OK, thanks. I don't think SGDMA is going to work for our application, since we have multiple masters who need to access the memory.

4 years agoHi Adzim,
That might work, but the port out of the EMIF core is Avalon-MM rather than Avalon-ST.
