6.1.1. Intel Agilex® 7 M-Series FPGA EMIF IP Parameter Descriptions for DDR4 Interfaces

The following topics describe the parameters available on each tab of the IP parameter editor, which you can use to configure your IP. Each parameter with an adjacent checkbox can be auto-computed. The checkbox to the left of the parameter controls whether its value is auto-computed (true) or set manually (false). If there is no checkbox to the left of a parameter, then it must be set manually.

Device DQ Width

If the device is a DIMM: Specifies the full DQ width of the DIMM. In the case of DDR5 DIMM: If the DQ width is set to 32 bits, only 1 channel of the DIMM is used; If the DQ width is set to 64 bits, both channels of the DIMM are used.

If the interface is composed of discrete components: Specifies the DQ width of each discrete component.

(Identifier: MEM_DEVICE_DQ_WIDTH)
Number of Components Per Rank

Number of components per rank. If each component contains more than one rank, then set this parameter to 1.

(Identifier: MEM_COMPS_PER_RANK)
Force Ranks to Share One Memory Interface Clock

Specifies whether all the ranks in the same channel should share one pair of memory interface differential clock. Applicable to DDR4 only.

(Identifier: MEM_RANKS_SHARE_CLOCKS)
ECC Mode

Specifies the type of ECC (if any) and the required number of side-band bits that will be used by this EMIF instance. While not all required side-band bits necessarily carry ECC bits, all need to be connected to the memory device. If enabling ECC requires more side-band bits than necessary ECC bits, then ECC bits are transmitted on the least significant side-band bits.

Note: This parameter can be auto-computed.

(Identifier: CTRL_ECC_MODE)
Enable Extra DQ Byte Lane

Augment a given memory interface with 8 extra DQ bits. These extra bits are accessed via the WUSER and RUSER ports on the PHY's AXI4 interface. The AXI4 WUSER and RUSER ports are 64-bit wide. In this release, this option can only augment a given 32/64-bit DDR4 in interface configured in fabric-synchronous mode without controller generated ECC bits.

Note: This parameter can be auto-computed.

(Identifier: AXI4_USER_DATA_ENABLE)
Total DQ Width

(Derived Parameter) This will be the width (in bits) of the mem_dq port on the memory interface.

For a component interface, it is calculated based on: (MEM_COMPS_PER_RANK * MEM_DEVICE_DQ_WIDTH + (8 bits if Side-band ECC is enabled, or 8 bits if AXI4 User Data is enabled in fabric modes, or 4 bits if AXI4 User Data is enabled in NoC mode)) * MEM_NUM_CHANNELS

For a DIMM-based interface, it is just MEM_DEVICE_DQ_WIDTH + (8 bits if side-band ECC is enabled, or 8 bits if AXI4 User Data is enabled in fabric modes, or 4 bits if AXI4 User Data is enabled in NoC mode) * MEM_NUM_CHANNELS.

(Identifier: MEM_TOTAL_DQ_WIDTH)

Note: This parameter can be auto-computed.

(Identifier: PHY_MEMCLK_FREQ_MHZ)

(Identifier: PHY_ASYNC_EN)
AC Placement

Indicates location on the device where the interface will reside (specifically, the location of the AC lanes in terms IO BANK and TOP vs BOT part of the IO BANK). Legal ranges are derived from device floorplan. By default (value=AUTO), the most optimal location is selected (to maximize available frequency and data width).

Note: This parameter can be auto-computed.

(Identifier: PHY_AC_PLACEMENT)
PLL Reference Clock Frequency

Specifies what PLL reference clock frequency the user will supply. It is recommended to use the fastest possible PLL reference clock frequency because it leads to better jitter performance.
