Description

CPU single Data line and double DDR internal memory connecting structure

Technical Field

The utility model relates to a semiconductor field especially relates to a single Data line of CPU and two DDR memory connection structure.

Background

In electronic products such as smart televisions, set top boxes and smart sound boxes, DDR memory frequency is a core reason for whether a system can run high performance, and for designing the DDR memory, the higher the DDR memory can run frequency, the better the system performance is;

referring to fig. 1, in a conventional connection structure design of the SOC/CPU and the DDR memory, the SOC/CPU and the DDR memory are respectively connected by 1 DDR Data pin of the SOC/CPU to 1 DDR Data pin of the DDR memory, and when the SOC/CPU needs to connect 4 DDR memories (16 bits), the SOC/CPU needs 64 separate Data pins to be respectively connected to the Data pins of the 4 DDR memories (16 bits);

referring to fig. 2, but as the market competition becomes more and more reluctant, reducing the cost of the system and the chip is the core of improving the product competitiveness; at present, an SOC/CPU reduces a 64-bit Data bandwidth to a 32-bit Data bandwidth to support 4 DDR memories with 16 bits; or the existing 32-bit Data bandwidth is reduced to 16-bit Data bandwidth to support 2 DDR memories with 16 bits; however, it is necessary to use 1Data pin of SOC/CPU to connect the same pin of 2 DDR memories, taking the CPU (16bit) to support two 16bit DDR memories as an example:

for the DDR Data pin of the CPU, the following connection methods exist:

CPU Data [0] < -to-DDR 1Data [0] and DDR2Data [0]

CPU Data 1-DDR 1Data 1 and DDR2Data 1

...

CPU Data [14] < -to-DDR 1Data [14] and DDR2Data [14]

CPU Data [15] < -to-DDR 1Data [15] and DDR2Data [15]

In the above design, it is difficult to increase the frequency of the DDR memory, which is basically within 800MHz, and the main reason for the low frequency of the DDR memory is that the initial delay of the signal due to the branch length difference is very high, as shown in fig. 3:

the length of the first branch line is: a (assuming 20mm)

The length of the second branch is: b (assume 35mm)

The branch length difference is: B-A is 35mm-20mm is 15mm

The speed of light is: 299792458m/s

Initial delay of signal due to branch length difference: length difference/speed of light (15mm)/(299792458m/s) 50ps (picosecond);

for high-speed DDR memory signal transmission, because the length difference between the first branch line and the second branch line is 15mm, when CPU Data [0] reaches two different DDR, the effective margin is directly lost by 50ps, and further, the frequency of the DDR memory cannot be increased.
