Use Cases

Since the value of the W_SETUP/R_SETUP, W_STROBE/R_STROBE, W_HOLD/R_HOLD, and TA fields
are equal to EMIF clock cycles minus 1 cycle, the A2CR should be configured as in

Table 23

. In this

example, the EM_WAIT signal is not implemented; therefore, the asynchronous wait cycle configuration
register (AWCCR) does not need to be programmed.

Parameter

Setting

SS

Select Strobe mode.

• SS = 0. Places EMIF in Normal Mode.

EW

Extended Wait mode enable.

• EW = 0. Disabled Extended wait mode.

W_SETUP/R_SETUP

Read/Write setup widths.

• W_SETUP = 0

• R_SETUP = 0

W_STROBE/R_STROBE

Read/Write strobe widths.

• W_STROBE = 0

• R_STROBE = 0

W_HOLD/R_HOLD

Read/Write hold widths.

• W_HOLD = 0

• R_HOLD = 0

TA

Minimum turnaround time.

• TA = 0

ASIZE

Asynchronous Device Bus Width.

• ASIZE = 1, select a 16-bit data bus width

Interfacing to NAND Flash

The following example explains how to interface the EMIF to the Hynix HY27UA081G1M NAND Flash
device.

Section 2.5.6.2

describes how to connect the EMIF to the HY27UA081G1M.

Margin Requirements

The Flash interface is typically a low-performance interface compared to synchronous memory interfaces,
high-speed asynchronous memory interfaces, and high-speed FIFO interfaces. For this reason, this
example gives little attention to minimizing the amount of margin required when programming the
asynchronous timing parameters. The approach used requires approximately 10 ns of margin on all
parameters, which is not significant for a 100-ns read or write cycle. For additional details on minimizing
the amount of margin, see the ASRAM example given in

Section 3.1

.
