Research and Implementation of Embedded Memory Controller Based on VIM

Vector in Memory(VIM)体系结构在Processing in Memory(PIM)的基础上加入向量部件,为解决存储性能瓶颈提供可行方案,深入探讨基于VIM的嵌入式存储控制器,阐述VIM-1嵌入式存储控制器的模块结构,及对DRAM存储模块的初始化、刷新和读写访问过程,最后给出VIM-1嵌入式存储控制器的功能模拟及FPGA综合结果。

The Vector in Memory（VIM） architecture which integrated vector in the Processing in Memory（PIM） is an efficient path to solve the I/O bottleneck problem. This paper researches the embedded memory controller based on VIM. Firstly, the paper expatiates on the module frame of embedded memory controller of VIM-1. Then elaborates the processes of initial-ization, refresh, and accesses to the DRAM. Finally, simulates and verifies the functionality of the memory controller, and finishes synthesizing it into an Altera Stratix FPGA chip.
