Definitions
- Memory interface Memory interface, memory arrangement and method of controlling memory access
- the invention also relates to a memory arrangement having a memory interface according to the invention.
- Said logic division of a program memory MEM comprises a system area SROM 0..SROM 5.5 having memory blocks each 256 bytes in size and two user areas, namely a first user area EROM 0..EROM 7.5 having memory blocks each 256 bytes in size and a second user area UROM 0..UROM 3.5 having memory blocks each 256 bytes in size.
- a test area (not shown) may also be present.
- the individual memory locations in the system area and the user areas are accessed by means of logic addresses iadr[0-12], with bits iadr[O] to iadr[7] being used to address individual memory locations within a given memory block and bits iadr[8] to iadr[12] being used to select the memory blocks.
- en_sysrom provided that is used to differentiate between the logic system memory-area SROM 0..SROM 5.5 and the logic user memory-areas EROM 0..EROM 7.5 and UROM 0..UROM 3.5.
- control signal en_sysrom When the control signal en_sysrom is 1, the system memory-area SROM 0..SROM 5.5 is accessed, and when the control signal en_sysrom is 0, the user memory-areas EROM 0..EROM 7.5 and UROM 0..UROM 3.5 are accessed.
- the function of the control signal en_sysrom in principle is equivalent to a fourteenth address bit. As can be seen, only a part of the address space that can be accessed by means of the logic addressing is used. Unused memory blocks in the system memory-area SROM 0..SROM 5.5 and the user memory-areas EROM 0..EROM 7.5 and UROM 0..UROM 3.5 are marked X in Fig. 1.
- logic memory areas SROM 0..SROM 5.5, EROM 0..EROM 7.5, UROM 0..UROM 3.5 may also be split up among different physical memories, as shown by way of example in the right-hand part of Fig. 1, which shows two memory modules MEMl and MEM2 in schematic form.
- the logic system memory-area SROM O..SROM 5.5 and the second user area UROM 0..UROM 3.5 are accommodated in memory module MEMl, whereas only the first user memory-area EROM 0..EROM 7.5 is situated in memory module MEM2.
- a memory interface is required that maps the logic addresses iadr[O- 12] to the correct physical addresses for the individual memory modules MEMl, MEM2.
- the relationship between logic and physical addresses in the system memory- area SROM 0..SROM 5.5 and the first user memory-area EROM O..EROM 7.5 is straightforward.
- a calculating unit is required that subtracts an offset from the logic address iadr[0-12] to determine the physical address.
- the logic address iadr[0-12] has to be assigned to the correct physical memory module MEMl.
- a memory arrangement comprising a memory interface according to the invention, and a program and/or data memory that is divided into a plurality of memory areas and that has preset memory locations at which offset values are stored.
