Empty Cell Rate Calculation Example
The internal SDRAM refresh generator uses empty cell cycles to perform its refresh cy-
cles. Thus the refresh function is closely related to the scheduler output rate
configuration. The empty cell rate generator guarantees a minimum number of empty
cell cycles required for refresh cycles. A maximum value for parameter T can be derived
by the following term:
Tmax = -S----Y----S-3---2-C----×L----K-R----e-×---f-R-r--e--e--s--f-h-r--e-C---s--y-h--c--P--l-e-e---s-r--i--o----d-

with:
• ABM core clock SYSCLK = [1/s]
• SDRAM RefreshPeriod = [s]
• SDRAM RefreshCycles requirement
The empty cell rate parameter definition for fractional and integer parts of T is according
to equations (5) and (6).
Example:
Given values: RefreshPeriod = 64ms, RefreshCycles = 4096, SYSCLK = 50 MHz
⇒ Tmax = 24.414
Thus the value of T that is represented by programmed device parameters IntRate and
FracRate according to equations (6) and (7), must be less or equal to Tmax to guarantee
sufficient refresh cycles according to the SDRAM specification.
In case of additional bandwidth needs to be reserved (e.g. for multicast operation in sub-
sequent devices), a second maximum condition for parameter T can be derived
depending on the empty cell rate required for multicast bandwidth reservation. In this
case the value of T must conform the following equation:
T = Min{Tequation(5), TMCreservation,Tmax}

Traffic Classes
4.11.1 CBR Connections
These connections should use the real-time bypass of the respective Scheduler. How-
ever, if two priority levels for real-time connections must be offered, a slightly lower real-
time performance can be achieved by using the WFQ Multiplexer with maximum weight.
