7.1. External Memory Interfaces (EMIF) IP - DDR5 Component Parameter Descriptions

The following topics describe the parameters available on each tab of the IP parameter editor, which you can use to configure your IP.
Table 137.  Group: High-level Configuration / Memory Device
Parameter Name Description
Number of Channels

Specifies the number of channels that the interface should implement. For multi-channel devices, this should always match the number of channels on the device.

Default value is 1

Legal values are: 1, 2

(Identifier: MEM_NUM_CHANNELS)
Data DQ Width

Number of DQ pins per memory channel, used for data.

Default value is 32

Legal values are: 16, 32, 40

(Identifier: MEM_CHANNEL_DATA_DQ_WIDTH)
ECC DQ Width

Number of additional DQ pins per memory channel, used for out-of-band ECC. If bigger than 0, controller will enable out-of-band ECC. Otherwise, out-of-band ECC will be disabled.

Default value is 0

Legal values are: 0, 8

(Identifier: MEM_CHANNEL_ECC_DQ_WIDTH)
Die DQ Width

Number of DQ pins in each die that makes up the interface. For dual-die packages, this is the width of the die, not the width of full the package.

Default value is 16

Legal values are: 8, 16

(Identifier: MEM_DIE_DQ_WIDTH)
Die Density

Capacity of each memory die (in Gbits), per channel per die. For dual-die packages, this is the density of each die, not the density of the full package.

Default value is 8

Legal values are: 8, 16, 24, 32
