NSBMC096-16 -25 -33 Burst Memory Controller
General Description
The NSBMC096 Burst Memory Controller is an integrated
circuit which implements all aspects of DRAM control for
high performance systems using an i960
SuperScalar Embedded Processor The NSBMC096 is func-
tionally equivalent to the V96BMC
The extremely high instruction rate achieved by these proc-
essors place extraordinary demands on memory system de-
sign if maximum throughput is to be sustained and costs
minimized
Static RAM offers a simple solution for high speed memory
systems However high cost and low density make this an
expensive and space consumptive choice
Dynamic RAMs are an attractive alternative with higher den-
sity and low cost Their drawbacks are slower access time
and more complex control circuitry required to operate
them
The access time problem is solved if DRAMs are used in
page mode In this mode access times rival that of static
RAM The control circuit problem is resolved by the
NSBMC096
The function that the NSBMC096 performs is to optimally
translate the burst access protocol of the i960 CA CF to the
page mode access protocol supported by dynamic RAMs
The device manages one or two-way interleaved arrange-
ments of DRAMs such that during burst access data can be
read or written at the rate of one word per system clock
cycle

The NSBMC096 has been designed to allow maximum flexi-
bility in its application The full range of processor speeds is
supported for a wide range of DRAM speeds sizes and or-
ganizations
No glue logic is required because the bus interface is cus-
tomized to the i960 CA CF System integration is further
enhanced by providing a 24-bit heartbeat timer and a bus
watch timer on-chip
The NSBMC096 is packaged as a 132-pin PQFP with a foot-
print of only 1 3 square inches It reduces design complexi-
ty space requirements and is fully derated for loading tem-
perature and voltage
