Table 8–1. Latency (In Full-Rate Memory Clock Cycles)
December 2010 Altera Corporation
Notes to
(1) Even write latency.
(2) Odd write latency.
(3) Latency is the number of cycles between the first register of the current stage capturing cmd/data, and the first register in the next stage
(4) Latency shown is best case, for maximum performance specifications. Latency may be higher due to protocol requirements; controller latency
capturing cmd/data.

Altera defines read and write latencies in terms of memory clock cycles. These
latencies apply to supported device families
There are two types of latencies that exists while designing with memory
controllers—read and write latencies, which have the following definitions:
■
■
For a half-rate controller, the local side frequency is half of the memory interface
frequency. For a full-rate controller, the local side frequency is equal to the memory
interface frequency.

.
The variable controller latency feature allows you to take advantage of lower latency
for variations designed to run at lower frequency. When deciding whether to vary the
controller latency from the default value of 2, be aware of the following
considerations:
■
■
If you select a latency value that is inappropriate for the target frequency, the system
displays a warning message in the text area at the bottom of the parameter editor.

Read latency—the amount of time it takes for the read data to appear at the local
interface after initiating the read request.
Write latency—the amount of time it takes for the write data to appear at the
memory interface after initiating the write request.
Reduced latency can help achieve a reduction in resource usage and clock cycles in
the controller, but might result in lower f
Increased latency can help achieve greater f
cycles in the controller and result in increased resource usage.
