DRAM CONTROLLER
1.1 OVERVIEW OF DRAM CONTROLLER
1.1.1 INTRODUCTION OF DRAM CONTROLLER
The DRAM controller is an Advanced Microcontroller Bus Architecture (AMBA
external JEDEC DDR-type SDRAM devices.
To support high-speed memory devices, the DRAM controller uses a SEC DDR PHY interface. The controller
includes an advanced embedded scheduler to utilize memory device efficiently and an optimized pipeline stage to
minimize latency. S5PC110 has two independent DRAM Controllers and Ports, namely, DMC0 and DMC1.
