The Intel FPGA Intellectual Property (IP) for DDR3 SDRAM High-Performance Controller provides simplified interfaces to industry-standard DDR3 SDRAM devices and modules. The Intel FPGA IP work in conjunction with the Intel FPGA ALTMEMPHY physical interface IP. These DDR3 SDRAM IP functions offer a half-rate interface to the customer application logic.
The parameter editor generates a design example that instantiates an example driver and your DDR3 SDRAM high-performance controller custom variation. The design example is a fully functional design that can be simulated, synthesized, and used in hardware. The example driver is a self-test module that issues read and write commands to the controller and checks the read data to produce the pass/fail and test complete signals.
