QCVS DDR3 Validation Tool Compatibility - B4860?

[samjackson]

• Hi I've got a couple of questions I hope some one can help please:

  • 1) Is the QCVS DDR3 Validation Tool is compatible with the B4860?
  • 2) Is there a B4860QDS QCVS project that has the RCW setup so I can try the DDR3 validation tool on a dev board before moving to my design.

  Thanks very much in advance,

  Sam

Thanks Adrian,

                    Today I've tried using the tool but having some difficulty, thank you for your continuing advice.

I used the project wizard to create a B4860QDS project, this worked and I can connect and access SDRAM.

I used the DDR register settings from this working project in a new project QCVS DDR Controller setup (register output attached).

The problem comes when I run the DDR Validation tool, it reports Error configuring the target! DDR enable error: timeout occurred while waiting for SDRAM_CFG_2[D_INIT] flad to be cleared by hardware (image attached)

Interestingly I can 'attach' while the DDR Validation tool is running, pause execution and successfully access the DDR memory area.

The Clock is configured as default: SW5: 5OFF 6OFF 7ON 7ON (66.67MHZ System & 133.33MHZ DDR clock).

Do you have a project for the B4860QDS already setup for the DDR Validation Tool?

Can you help me please?

Thanks in advance,

Sam

Are you using a custom board or QDS board? Please provide ccs log (go to ccs console and enter 'log v' command) when DDRv is running tests, maybe I can see an error.

If you are using QDS board do the followings:

- when create DDR project select Read from SPD option to get the DDR config directly from SPD;

- make sure DDR Bus clock from DDR properties have the same value as the one set by RCW

- select 1 instance from each test type from Operational DDR tests

If tests passes, try to run the other tests type, Centering the clock or/and Reat/Write ODT or/and Margins. Note that only Operational DDR tests doesn't change the DDR configuration.

B4860 is supported by QCVS, both DDR validation tool and PBL tool. PBL tool offers a default PBL configuration based on B4860QDS board, but any other PBL, for example from SDK, can be imported.
