DRAM to DDR issue in Zedboard

Former Member
Former Member over 9 years ago

Hi.
I am facing issue with reading from DDR memory to PL(led's).
i have connected fabric hardware like shown in image on this link https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0Byl0l4ua8ptEaXJ2SUFibVZJekk&usp=sharing , address allocated to all hardware are also shown in image.
also i have written following code for configuring hardware

ISSUES :
1- Reading abrupt values but able to see the correct value.
2- Writing correct values but don't it is uncontrollable.
3- Need a proper explanation.

    Hello Prakhar,

     

    It sounds like the issue is in your custom IP cores. I would suggest looking over the address range and other settings of your IP core. You may also want to take a look at the Xilinx Community forums that focus on this type of development:

    Hi GARY

    thanks for your kind support it helped a lot , there were some addressing issues , which are resolved now and design is working perfectly fine .
    Also i want to know a detailed description of MM2S_LENGTH register in AXI_DMA block , if you have some sources please do share .

    thanks in advance

    Hello Prakhar,

     

    If you double click on the AXI_DMA IP block in your Vivado block design and click the 'Documentation' button in the upper left hand corner of the dialog box you should be able to find descriptions of the registers.

    hi Gary

    I have that document and also i have read that but there wasn't any detailed description of that register.
    I want to know more about that register.
