DDR4 Controller

The Rambus DDR4 controller core is designed for high memory throughput, high clock rates, and full programmability in computing and networking applications. With the Rambus DDR4 PHY, it comprises a complete DDR4 memory interface subsystem.

How the DDR4 Interface Subsystem works

The Rambus DDR4 controller maximizes memory bus efficiency via Look-Ahead command processing, bank management, auto-precharge and additive latency support. The core is DFI compatible and supports a range of interfaces to user logic.

The Rambus DDR4 memory PHY delivers industry-leading data rates of up to 3200 Mbps and is compatible with the DDR4 and DDR3 standards. The PHY consists of a Command/Address (C/A) macro cell and Data (DQ) macro cells configured to create a 72-bit wide channel.

The Rambus DDR4 PHY and DDR4 controller used together comprise a complete DDR4 memory interface subsystem. Alternatively, these cores can be licensed separately to be paired with 3rd-party DDR4 controller or PHY solutions.

From Data Center to End Device: AI/ML Inferencing with GDDR6

Created to support 3D gaming on consoles and PCs, GDDR packs performance that makes it an ideal solution for AI/ML inferencing. As inferencing migrates from the heart of the data center to the network edge, and ultimately to a broad range of AI-powered IoT devices, GDDR memory’s combination of high bandwidth, low latency, power efficiency and suitability for high-volume applications will be increasingly important. The latest iteration of the standard, GDDR6 memory, pushes data rates to 18 gigabits per second and device bandwidths to 72 gigabytes per second.
