1 For full-rate controllers,
phy_clk_1x
runs at full rate and there are only two bits of
wdata
.
The write datapath for full-rate PHYs is similar to the half-rate PHY. The IOE block is
identical to the half-rate PHY. The latency of the write datapath in the full-rate PHY is
less than in the half-rate PHY because the full-rate PHY does not have half-rate to
full-rate conversion logic.

ALTMEMPHY Signals
This section describes the ALMEMPHY megafunction ports for AFI variants.
Table 5–5 through Table 5–7 show the signals.
1 Signals with the prefix
mem_
connect the PHY with the memory device; signals with
the prefix
ctl_
connect the PHY with the controller.
The signal lists include the following signal groups:
■ I/O interface to the SDRAM devices
■ Clocks and resets
■ External DLL signals
■ User-mode calibration OCT control
■ Write data interface
■ Read data interface
■ Address and command interface
■ Calibration control and status interface
■ Debug interface
