EMIFB Memory Error Interrupt

Hi
I have a quetion about EMIFB(SDRAM) Interrupt in C6747/L137.

As DSP interrupt Map, C6747 can recieve "EMIFB Memory Error Interrupt"(EMIFB_INT: Event 60).
Please tel me how this interrupt occur.

For example, If  unexpected data is read from SDRAM to generate any glitch in SDRAM Clock line, this EMIFB_INT occurred ?

Best Regards.

  • Hi Takao,

    Thanks for your post.

    Usually, there are protection checks implemented in the MPU unit on the device which takes care of address violation or protection violation, if any, during a memory access and throws an address error interrupt (MPU_ADDR_ERR_INT) and a protection interrupt (MPU_PROT_ERR_INT) if any violation happens due to an access in the MPU register space. Likewise, EMIFB_INT: Event 60 interrupt also occurs in this type of usecase

    The device supports two memory protection units and to be specific, MPU2 supports the EMIFB. Please refer Section 6.3, Table 6-7. MPU2 Registers in the OMAPL137 TRM as mentioned below, in which, kindly check IENSTAT & IENSET register details to set and check the status of memory error interrupts as below:

    Please also refer Section 5.13 for more understanding on MPU in the OMAPL137 datasheet as below:

  • Hi Sivaraj

    Thank you for your reply.

    I understood this interrupt by your favor.  

     (This interrupt doesn't seem to be my purpose.....)
