I have implemented Cortex-M3 subsystem with DDR3 peripheral (Xilinx MIG controller) with core clock of 40MHz and DDR3 UI clock of 83.33 MHz with Phy Clock 333MHz.
ARM Cortex-M3 AHB Bus is connected to AHB 2 AXI Bridge (Xilinx) and then used AXI interconnect to connect the Birdge to MIG DDR3 module.
What I noticed is that once the arm core requests to read data from DDR3, it takes around 700 ns (which is 28 clocks @ 40MHz).
I believe this is too slow to access the DDR from arm core.
If any one see any issue with the above accessing the DDR or is there a better way to connect the Cortex-M3 to DDR such that the access time is far less?
