3.9. External memory interface
The MSM6275 have two external memory interfaces with arbitration for the multi-layer AHB system
and memory controllers. The EBI1 bus is a high performance bus that supports a wide variety of
memories. EBI2 bus is targeted to be the interface for slow peripheral devices(i,.e., LCD) as well as
the NAND flash memory.
• EBI1 Features
- 16 bit static and dynamic memory interface
- 32 bit dynamic memory interface
- 24 bits of address for static memory devices which can support up to 32MBytes on each chip select
- Synchronous burst memories supported (burst NOR, burst PSRAM)
- Synchronous DRAM memories supported
- Byte addressable memory supporting 8 bit, 16 bit and 32 bit accesses
- Pseudo SRAM (PSRAM) memory support
• EBI2 Features
- Support for asynchronous FLASH and SRAM(16bit & 8bit).
- Interface support for byte addressable 16bit devices(UB_N & LB_N signals).
- 2Mbytes of memory per chip select.
- Support for 8 bit wide NAND flash.
- Support for parallel LCD interfaces, port mapped of memory mapped(16 & 8 bit)
• 1GMb NAND flash memory + 512Mb SDRAM (1die)
