Use Model 2: Selecting Non-Bufferable Region
This use model shows the use of the non-bufferable region selection in the DDR bridge. The buffering
creates more latency in the applications which access non-continuous memory locations. In such cases
non-bufferable region selection provides high throughput than bufferable. For example, when Cortex-M3
processor fetches the data from data region that is, stack and the application has bulk data transactions
then keeping the data region as bufferable and code region as non-bufferable is preferred.
In this use model, the application uses only 256 MB of memory segment (0xB000_0000 to
0XBFFF_FFFF) as non-bufferable and the other memory region as bufferable. The following image
shows the selection of the non-bufferable region.
