peripheral that connects to the Advanced High-performance Bus (AHB). The
remainder of this chapter refers to this controller as the memory controller.

Features

The memory controller provides these features:

AMBA 32-bit AHB compliancy

Dynamic memory interface support including SDRAM and JEDEC low-power
SDRAM

Asynchronous static memory device support including RAM, ROM, and Flash,
with and without asynchronous page mode

Can operate with cached processors with copyback caches

Can operate with uncached processors

Low transaction latency

Read and write buffers to reduce latency and improve performance,
particularly for uncached processors.

8-bit, 16-bit, and 32-bit wide static memory support.

16-bit and 32-bit wide chip select SDRAM memory support.

Static memory features, such as:

Asynchronous page mode read

Programmable wait states

Bus turnaround delay

Output enable and write enable delays

Extended wait
