A kind of method of access external memory
Technical field
The present invention relates to the memory processes technology, refer to a kind of method of access external memory especially.
Background technology
In on-chip integration system (SoC), comprise that as a plurality of parallel processing functional modules such as processor, DMA, hardware accelerator, peripheral hardwares these functional modules can be visited chip external memory such as SDRAM, DDR storer etc. as required.
Because functional modules such as processor, DMA, hardware accelerator are independent operating separately, therefore in actual applications, the SDRAM storer might be visited simultaneously by a plurality of functional modules, but, physical characteristics according to the SDRAM storer, at synchronization, the SDRAM storer only allows to exist a read and write access.In order to address this problem, visit to external memory storage need be by bus arbiter unit according to certain selection strategy, the external memory access authority is authorized the request of access of some functional modules, the interim simultaneously request of access of hanging up other functional modules is up to handling the all-access request.Obviously, the working method of this mini system bandwidth of SDRAM has influenced the storage efficiency of storer.
In the SoC of complexity chip, the parallel processing functional module is more and more, and the calculation process ability of functional module is more and more stronger, and SDRAM memory stores efficient and system bandwidth become the bottleneck of SoC chip performance gradually.
The SDRAM memory bus is divided into data bus and address bus, and wherein, data bus is used to transmit the data of visit; Address bus is used to transmit the address of visit and the order of sending to the SDRAM storer.Accessing characteristic to the SDRAM storer is: the SDRAM storer is divided into piece (Bank) address with the address of visit, row (row) address and row (column) address.During each access sdram storer, need earlier the piece precharge (pre charge) at reference address place is activated the row at (active) reference address place again, could visit out this reference address place storage unit according to column address then.That is to say, during each access sdram storer, if do not have precharge bank and activate row, must be by processings that say the word on the address bus, and then send column address by address bus, wait for certain hour after, transmit data by data bus again.
If the Bank at reference address place is recharged and does not close, can save piece pre charge step, thereby save the time of piece pre charge.If the Bank at reference address place has been recharged and the row at this place, address is activated, can save the time of capable active.
And, the general multiplexing same data bus of the input and output of SDRAM storer, promptly data bus is two-way.When the execution interval read-write operation, SDRAM needs extra time overhead to switch bus.
In sum, because the device physics characteristic of SDRAM storer, the delay of access sdram storer also comprises piece pre charge except the SDRAM internal data transfer postpones, row active and the two-way switching delay of bus.
At present, bus arbiter unit among the general SoC is the module priority according to priority request order or main equipment, from the request of a plurality of main equipments, arbitrate out a certain request and directly give the SDRAM storer, do not consider the distinctive lag characteristic of SDRAM storer self.And externally in the SoC chip of equipment such as complexity the parallel function module more and more, under the more and more stronger situation of the calculation process ability of functional module, the low storage efficiency of SDRAM storer self has directly seriously reduced the access efficiency of external unit.
