Abstract: A microprocessor integrated with DRAM on the same die has the potential to improve system performance by reducing the memory latency and improving the memory bandwidth. However, a high performance microprocessor will typically send more accesses than the DRAM can handle due to the long cycle time of the embedded DRAM, especially in applications with significant memory requirements. A multi-bank DRAM can hide the long cycle time by allowing the DRAM to process multiple accesses in parallel, but... (Update)

...memory bank would carry with it an area overhead for additional circuits like Y decoders, read write datapath, etc. Yamauchi et.al. [144] estimate 40 and 80 overhead for 16 and 32 banks respectively, compared to a baseline 4 bank 256Mbit DRAM design. To take advantage of...

...when those references are satisfied in order. Several memory access schedulers have been proposed as part of systems on a chip [WAM 99] [YHO97]. Hitachi has built a test chip of their access optimizer for embedded DRAM that contains the access optimizer and DRAM [WAM 99] A...
