DMA throughput in AM3517 processor

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AM3517

Hi All,

We are working on a project with AM3517 processor. Our board has a FPGA connected to this processor through GPMC interface in 16bit mode. GPMC accesses FPGA through synchronous burst of 8 words. Our customer wants 128Mbps(16MBps) throughput through DMA from GPMC to SDRAM transactions. We are currently observing only about 32Mbps(4MBps).

Details of the setup:

Processor: AM3517

Clocking rate (Crystal/Core/MPU): 26.0/332/500 MHz

GPMC CLK: 83MHz

GPMC data width: 16bits

GPMC mode: synchronous with 8 word burst

Device connected to GPMC: FPGA

Linux BSP distribution: TI PSP. 04.02.00.07

Kindly let me know your suggestions on how to achieve this.
