Query: A Flexible High-Bandwidth Low-Latency Multi-Port Memory Controller   Multi-port memory controllers (MPMCs) have become increasingly important in
many modern applications due to the tremendous growth in bandwidth requirement.
Many approaches so far have focused on improving either the memory access
latency or the bandwidth utilization for specific applications. Moreover, the
application systems are likely to require certain adjustments to connect with
an MPMC, since the MPMC interface is limited to a single-clock and single
data-width domain. In this paper, we propose efficient techniques to improve
the flexibility, latency, and bandwidth of an MPMC. Firstly, MPMC interfaces
employ a pair of dual-clock dual-port FIFOs at each port, so any multi-clock
multi-data-width application system can connect to an MPMC without requiring
extra resources. Secondly, memory access latency is significantly reduced
because parallel FIFOs temporarily keep the data transfer between the
application system and memory. Lastly, a proposed arbitration scheme, namely
window-based first-come-first-serve, considerably enhances the bandwidth
utilization. Depending on the applications, MPMC can be properly configured by
updating several internal configuration registers. The experimental results in
an Altera Cyclone FPGA prove that MPMC is fully operational at 150 MHz and
supports up to 32 concurrent connections at various clocks and data widths.
More significantly, achieved bandwidth utilization is approximately 93.2% of
the theoretical bandwidth, and the access latency is minimized as compared to
previous designs.
