lpc22xx external bus timing

lpc22xx external bus timing

2005-03-05 by xlpeng

Hi,

Don't understand why the required memory access time is much shorter 
than it can be from the external bus sequences figures.

For example, in LPC2292/LC2294 User manual, for the external memory 
read access, if XCLK is 50MHz and WST1=0 (1 wait state). If we use 
philips' formula, Tram <= Tcyc*(2 + WST1)-20ns, the result is 20ns, 
which means a 20ns access time memory is require for the 50MHz XCLK 
operation. But when looking at the read access timing diagram, with 
WST1=0, 3 XCLK clocks are used to finish one read access. That's a 
total of 60ns. A 60ns memory is enough for this situation, why 
philips requires a 20ns device?

Thanks,

lpeng
