3.2.4.2 Memory
In addition to the internal RAM, the OMAP 1710 Processor (U6302) features three distinct external
memory interfaces. All memory devices except the eMMC memory, is located on the VOCON board,
as elaborated in
3.2.4.3 Asynchronous External Memory Interface
The EMIFS is used for transferring data between the ARM or DSP cores and the 64 MB External
NOR Flash memory (U6304). The Flash memory is a non-volatile memory unit, primarily used to
store the radio's executable code, along with device configuration values, event logs, and
initialization codes. The flash memory is primarily accessed during the VOCON's power up and
power down cycles.
3.2.4.4 Flash Memory (6304)
The Flash memory located in close proximity to the OMAP processor is a 64 MB Numonyx 65nm
StrataFlash. The flash interface uses 16 data bits and 25 address bits. The flash IC is enabled by
OMAP processor's CS3 line. The flash IC also features a WAIT line that is capable of halting data
flow between the processor and flash IC while operating in synchronous read mode.
3.2.4.5 CPLD Interface (U6101)
The CPLD (U6101) registers are also mapped to the Asynchronous External Memory Interface.
These registers control the CPLD GPIO pins and enable the OMAP to expand its GPIO capability via
memory mapped IO.
