Intel® PXA255 Processor Developer’s Manual
Memory Controller
provides a comparison of supported Asynchronous Static Memory types.
6.7.4
ROM Interface
The processor provides programmable timing for both burst and non-burst ROMs. The RDF field
in MSCx is the latency (in memory clock cycles) for the first, and all subsequent, data beats from
non-burst ROMs, and the first data beat from a burst ROM. RDN is the latency for the burst data
beats after the first for burst ROMs. RRR delays the following access to a different memory space
to allow time for the current ROM to three-state the data bus.
RRR must be programmed with the maximum t
OFF
value, as specified by the ROM manufacturer.
For hardware reset initialization values, refer to
. MSC0[15:0] is selected when the
address space corresponding to nCS0 is accessed. The processor supports a ROM burst size of 1, 4,
or 8 by configuring the MSCx[RTx] register bits to 0, 2 or 3 respectfully.
