QDR IV XP PHY + MEMORY CONTROLLER IP

Overview

Atria Logic with its vast expertise and working experience for more than a decade in memory domains, brings a high speed PHY and Memory Controller for next generation memories introduced under the QDR consortium. Working at high speeds it garnishes the maximum speed of Stratix V FPGAs at 800MHz. De- skew training sequences, per-bit calibration and rate conversions at high speeds from uer interface (quarter rate) to memory interface (full rate) are some its features.

Key Features

  • Two-Bidirectional Ports
  • De-skew training sequence
  • Reset configuration and calibration sequences at hard-reset
  • On-die termination
  • Work upto 800MHz
