Memory management

 

To buffer data, the GANDALF module uses a system of QDR II- and DDR-memorys, which can be configurated as needed. Both raw data and the results of the data processing can be saved. The 155MBit QDRII-memory possesses seperated ports for write and read access and can be written to and read out with a maximum data rate of 14,4 Gbit/s. Furthermore, there is a 4 Gbit DDR2 memory installed, which covers a data rate of 4,2 Gbit/s. A detailed manual for the GANDALF module can be found in the download section.
