FTADDR is a memory controller for DDR2 and DDR3 SDRAM memory devices. It uses a strong error correction code to achieve exceptional fault tolerance.

On the memory side, it presents a DFI interface for connection to an on-chip physical layer (PHY) that manages the low-level timing and data recovery and then provides the I/O buffers. Towards the system-on-chip, it presents the memory through an AMBA AHB slave interface.

Features Configurable to have multiple AHB ports with concurrent accesses to different memory banks 96-, 64- or 32-bits interface towards SDRAM Memory devices of width x8 or x4 Support for several PHYs: Generic DFI Altera UniPhy (64 bits) Xilinx Ultrascale (64 or 64+32) Strong error correction code to achieve double device correction capability: Deliver correct data despite one full device failure and random SEU-induced errors on the other devices. Up to 8 parallel banks (chip selects) Can operate autonomously: Designed to support also processor-less configurations

Synthesis      FTADDR can be synthesized with common commercial synthesis tools.      The IP model is highly configurable and portable between different      implementation technologies, for both FPGA and ASIC. For ASIC      implementations, a DFI compliant PHY and SSTL IO buffers are also      required

Availability
FTADDR is available as a separate package or as an addition to commercial versions of the GRLIB VHDL library. Contact sales@gaisler.com for licensing information.
Example designs for Xilinx and Altera FPGA evaluation boards are readily available.
