External Memory Interface A (EMIFA)
The EMIFA offers an additional parameter, TA, that defines the turnaround time between read and write
cycles. This parameter protects against the situation when the output turn-off time of the memory is longer
than the time it takes to start the next write cycle. If this is the case, the EMIFA will drive data at the same
time as the memory, causing contention on the bus. By examining Figure 18-23, the equation for TA can
be derived as:
Figure 18-23. Timing Waveform of an ASRAM Read
For a write access, Table 18-34 lists the AC timing specifications that must be satisfied.
