Figure 13-8. Dual-Port RAM Memory Map

The dual-port RAM data bus is 64-bits wide. The RAM is used for six possible tasks:

¥

To store parameters associated with the FCCs, SCCs, MCCs, SMCs, SPI, I

2

C, and

IDMAs in the parameter RAM.

¥

To store buffer descriptors (BDs).

¥

To hold data buffers (optional because data can also be stored in external memory).

¥

For temporary storage of FCC data moving to/from an FCC FIFO (using the BTM)
from/to external memory (using SDMA).

¥

To store RAM microcode for the CP. This feature allows Motorola to add protocols
in the future.

¥

For additional scratch-pad RAM space for user software.

The RAM is designed to serve multiple requests at the same cycle, as long as they are not
in the same bank.
