• 8 MB CFI flash memory
• 16 MB SDRAM

These numbers correspond to the external memory provided by the DBC2C20

development board. Your FTXL device design can include as much external
memory as required for your device.

Addressing, Size, and IRQ Requirements

For the FTXL Developer’s Kit reference design, the address assignments for the

instruction master and data master components were assigned by allowing the
Altera SOPC Builder tool to allocate and assign the address locations.
Table 15 lists the size requirements of each of the major components of the FTXL
Developer’s Kit reference design. The size specifications for general components

are the default sizes; the size specifications for the components whose names

begin with FTXL_ define the requirements for the hardware interface.
