Motorola Mpc107 Pci Bridge/Integrated Memory Controller MPC107FACT/D Fact Sheet MOTOROLA MPC107 PCI BRIDGE/INTEGRATED MEMORY CONTROLLER The MPC107 PCI Bridge/Integrated Memory Controller provides a bridge between the Peripheral Component Interconnect, (PCI) bus and PowerPC 603e™, PowerPC 740™, PowerPC 750™ or MPC7400 microprocessors. PCI support allows system designers to design systems quickly using peripherals already designed for PCI and the other standard interfaces available in the personal computer hardware environment. The MPC107 provides many of the other necessities for embedded applications including a high-performance memory controller and dual processor support, 2-channel flexible DMA controller, an interrupt controller, an I2O-ready message unit, an inter-integrated circuit controller (I2C), and low skew clock drivers. The MPC107 contains an Embedded Programmable Interrupt Controller (EPIC) featuring five hardware interrupts (IRQ’s) as well as sixteen serial interrupts along with four timers. The MPC107 uses an advanced, 2.5-volt HiP3 process technology and is fully compatible with TTL devices. Integrated Memory Controller The memory interface controls processor and PCI interactions to main memory. It supports a variety of programmable timing supporting DRAM (FPM, EDO), SDRAM, and ROM/Flash ROM configurations, up to speeds of 100 MHz. PCI Bus Support The MPC107 PCI interface is designed to connect the processor and memory buses to the PCI local bus without the need for "glue" logic at speeds up to 66 MHz. The MPC107 acts as either a master or slave device on the PCI MPC107 Block Diagram bus and contains a PCI bus arbitration unit 60x Bus which reduces the need for an equivalent Memory Data external unit thus reducing the total system Data Path ECC / Parity complexity and cost.

  • A Modern Primer on Processing in Memory
    A Modern Primer on Processing in Memory Onur Mutlua,b, Saugata Ghoseb,c, Juan Gomez-Luna´ a, Rachata Ausavarungnirund SAFARI Research Group aETH Z¨urich bCarnegie Mellon University cUniversity of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign dKing Mongkut’s University of Technology North Bangkok Abstract Modern computing systems are overwhelmingly designed to move data to computation. This design choice goes directly against at least three key trends in computing that cause performance, scalability and energy bottlenecks: (1) data access is a key bottleneck as many important applications are increasingly data-intensive, and memory bandwidth and energy do not scale well, (2) energy consumption is a key limiter in almost all computing platforms, especially server and mobile systems, (3) data movement, especially off-chip to on-chip, is very expensive in terms of bandwidth, energy and latency, much more so than computation. These trends are especially severely-felt in the data-intensive server and energy-constrained mobile systems of today. At the same time, conventional memory technology is facing many technology scaling challenges in terms of reliability, energy, and performance. As a result, memory system architects are open to organizing memory in different ways and making it more intelligent, at the expense of higher cost. The emergence of 3D-stacked memory plus logic, the adoption of error correcting codes inside the latest DRAM chips, proliferation of different main memory standards and chips, specialized for different purposes (e.g., graphics, low-power, high bandwidth, low latency), and the necessity of designing new solutions to serious reliability and security issues, such as the RowHammer phenomenon, are an evidence of this trend.

  • The Impulse Memory Controller
    IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON COMPUTERS, VOL. 50, NO. 11, NOVEMBER 2001 1 The Impulse Memory Controller John B. Carter, Member, IEEE, Zhen Fang, Student Member, IEEE, Wilson C. Hsieh, Sally A. McKee, Member, IEEE, and Lixin Zhang, Student Member, IEEE AbstractÐImpulse is a memory system architecture that adds an optional level of address indirection at the memory controller. Applications can use this level of indirection to remap their data structures in memory. As a result, they can control how their data is accessed and cached, which can improve cache and bus utilization. The Impuse design does not require any modification to processor, cache, or bus designs since all the functionality resides at the memory controller. As a result, Impulse can be adopted in conventional systems without major system changes. We describe the design of the Impulse architecture and how an Impulse memory system can be used in a variety of ways to improve the performance of memory-bound applications. Impulse can be used to dynamically create superpages cheaply, to dynamically recolor physical pages, to perform strided fetches, and to perform gathers and scatters through indirection vectors. Our performance results demonstrate the effectiveness of these optimizations in a variety of scenarios. Using Impulse can speed up a range of applications from 20 percent to over a factor of 5. Alternatively, Impulse can be used by the OS for dynamic superpage creation; the best policy for creating superpages using Impulse outperforms previously known superpage creation policies. Index TermsÐComputer architecture, memory systems. æ 1 INTRODUCTION INCE 1987, microprocessor performance has improved at memory. By giving applications control (mediated by the Sa rate of 55 percent per year; in contrast, DRAM latencies OS) over the use of shadow addresses, Impulse supports have improved by only 7 percent per year and DRAM application-specific optimizations that restructure data.

    White Paper: Virtex-II Series R WP127 (v1.0) March 6, 2002 Embedded System Design Considerations By: David Naylor Embedded systems see a steadily increasing bandwidth mismatch between raw processor MIPS and surrounding components. System performance is not solely dependent upon processor capability. While a processor with a higher MIPS specification can provide incremental system performance improvement, eventually the lagging surrounding components become a system performance bottleneck. This white paper examines some of the factors contributing to this. The analysis of bus and component performance leads to the conclusion that matching of processor and component performance provides a good cost-performance trade-off. © 2002 Xilinx, Inc.
