DDR3L SDRAM
There is a single DDR3 SDRAM channel on the Mercury SA1 SoC module attached directly to the HPS side
and is available only as a shared resource to the FPGA side.
The DDR3L SDRAM is connected to HPS I/O banks 6A and 6B, and it is always operated at 1.35 V (low power
mode). Four 8-bit memory chips are used to build a 32-bit wide memory.
The maximum memory bandwidth on the Mercury SA1 SoC module is:
800 Mbit/sec
32 bit = 3200 MB/sec

Warning!
Other DDR3L memory devices may be equipped in future revisions of the Mercury SA1 SoC module.
Please check the user manual regularly for updates. Any parts with different speed bins or temperature
ranges that fulfill the requirements for the module variant may be used.

Signal Description
Please refer to the Mercury SA1 SoC Module FPGA Pinout Excel Sheet [4] for detailed information on the
DDR3L SDRAM connections.
2.15.3
Termination
Warning!
No external termination is implemented for the data signals on the Mercury SA1 SoC module. There-
fore, it is strongly recommended to enable the on-die termination (ODT) feature of the DDR3 SDRAM
device.
