Figure 14-7. Dual-Port RAM Block Diagram

The dual-port RAM can be accessed by the following:

CP load/store unit

CP block transfer module (BTM)

CP instruction fetcher (when executing microcode from RAM)

G2 60x slave

SDMA 60x bus

SDMA local bus

Note that the dual-port RAM should not be cached.

Figure 14-8

shows the memory map of the dual-port RAM.

NOTE

Starting at address 0x4000 on .25

µm (HiP4) devices, an extra 8 Kbytes is

available for microcode execution only and cannot be used for data buffers
or BDs. However, when not used for microcode, the extra 8 Kbytes can be
accessed from the 60x bus for general purpose internal storage. On .29

µm

(HiP3) revisions of the PowerQUICC II, this space is reserved.
