Q

How to connect the parallel memory interface - FMC - of a STM32 Microcontroller to the paralell DPM (Dual Port Memory) of netX 90?

A

Notes

  • Usage of SDRAM on netX 90 is not possible when a parallel DPM connection to an external host is used.
    Some Hilscher LFWs (Loadable Firmware) require external SDRAM and can not be used when a parallel DPM connection to an external host is used.
    These are IoT LFWs (e.g. PROFINET + OPC UA) and future LFWs with security functionality.
    Use case C cannot be used since it requires external SDRAM

  • STM32 FMC always use word addresssing, netX 90 DPM requires byte addressing.
    Therfore the address signals must be shifted in hardware → FMC_A0:DPM_A1, FMC_A1:DPM_A2, etc.
    DPM_A0 must be connected to byte enable FMC_NBL0

    (warning) Although netX DPM allows address shifting by configuration (dpm_if_cfg Bit 15 addr_sh  =0 byte address, 1=word address)
    it is not usable. In this mode (dpm_if_cfg Bit 15 = 1), no byte enable can be used and only whole words must be written.
    This does not meet the requirements of the Hilscher DPM access.

  • STM32 FMC extended mode must be enabled
    configure Mode A -> FMC_NOE (netX_90_RD) toggles back to inactive during address change
    netX DPM RD signal requires to be inactive -> tRDI (Read inter access idle time ) min 12.5nsec

    (warning) Mode 1 does not work, since FMC_NOE (netX_90_RD) does not become inactive during address change,
