8.3. Pin and Resource Planning

The following topics provide guidelines on pin placement for external memory interfaces.

Typically, all external memory interfaces require the following FPGA resources:

  • Interface pins
  • PLL and clock network
  • Other FPGA resources—for example, core fabric logic, and on-chip termination (OCT) calibration blocks

Once all the requirements are known for your external memory interface, you can begin planning your system.
