TDA4VM: ECC support

Part Number: TDA4VM


Team,

Please elaborate what the statement in TRM chapter 8.2.1.1 DDRSS Not Supported Features means: The ECC engine of the DDR controller.

I think in-line ECC is fully supported, so what would the 'ECC engine' do? Would this be for an extra ECC memory chip?

Thanks,
  Robert

  • Hi Robert,

    There are two implementations of ECC for the DDRSS, where one is supported and the other is not. I would have to confirm with the design team, but I believe one is implemented inside the controller logic (not supported), and one is implemented at the sub-system (top) level (supported). 

    Let me know if further information is needed at this time.

    Best regards,
    Kevin

  • Thanks Kevin! 

    It might be good remove this from the TRM or to make it more clear. It's kind of confusing right now.

    Best regards,
