ctl_mem_cas_n_l

(1)

input

1

The column-address strobe signal from the
controller to the memory. Output during the low
half-period of the address and command clock and
driven by the memory controller.

ctl_mem_cke_h

(1)

input

MEM_IF_CS_

WIDTH

The clock-enable signal from the controller to the
memory. Output during the high half-period of the
address and command clock and driven by the
memory controller.

ctl_mem_cke_l

(1)

input

MEM_IF_CS_

WIDTH

The clock-enable signal from the controller to the
memory. Output during the low half-period of the
address and command clock and driven by the
memory controller.

ctl_mem_cs_n_h

(1)

input

MEM_IF_CS_

WIDTH

The chip-select signal from the controller to the
memory. For half-rate designs, always tie
ctl_mem_cs_n_h

high, as even with 2T

addressing, the chip select is only driven for the
second clock cycle, to allow an extra clock cycle of
setup time for the other address and command
signals. Output during the high half-period of the
address and command clock and driven by the
memory controller

ctl_mem_cs_n_l

(1)

input

MEM_IF_CS_

WIDTH

The chip-select signal from the controller to the
memory. Output during the low half-period of the
address and command clock and driven by the
memory controller.

ctl_mem_dqs_burst

input

1

Controls the DQS output enables of the DQS pins.

ctl_mem_odt_h

(1)

input

MEM_IF_CS_

WIDTH

The on-die termination signal from the controller to
the memory.

ctl_mem_odt_l

(1)

input

MEM_IF_CS_

WIDTH

The on-die termination signal from the controller to
the memory.

ctl_mem_ras_n_h

(1)

input

1

The row-address strobe signal from the controller
to the memory. Output during the high half-period
of the address and command clock and driven by
the memory controller.

ctl_mem_ras_n_l

(1)

input

1

The row-address strobe signal from the controller
to the memory. Output during the low half-period of
the address and command clock and driven by the
memory controller.

ctl_mem_rdata

output

LOCAL_IF_

DWIDTH

The ctl_mem_rdata signal is the captured,
resynchronized, and demultiplexed read data from
the ALTMEMPHY megafunction to the controller.

The ctl_mem_rdata_valid signal Indicates
when the ctl_mem_rdata is valid.

Between Read Commands and Read Data” on
