MDDR with Dual AHB Interface
The steps for accessing the MDDR from one or two AHB masters in the FPGA fabric is the same as in
"Use Model 1: Accessing MDDR from FPGA Fabric Through the AXI Interface" section on page 126
except for the following:
11. The single AHB or two AHB interfaces must be selected in the MSS external memory configurator
instead of AXI master.
12. One or two AHB masters must be connected through CoreAHB's in the SmartDesign canvas.

Use Model 3: Accessing MDDR from Cortex-M3 Processor
The Cortex-M3 processor can access the DDR SDRAM connected to the MDDR subsystem through the
MSS DDR bridge, as shown in
page 131.This use model follows the steps
for using MDDR.Use the following steps to access the MDDR from the Cortex-M3
processor:
