Optimizing the LTDC framebuffer fetching from SDRAM

Making random access into a bank generates some precharge cycles which increase the

SDRAM latency seen by the LTDC. As the LTDC is performing sequential accesses, it's

important that no other masters are doing access into the same SDRAM bank.

The external SDRAM is composed of multiple banks. Given that making random accesses

on a bank generates some precharge and activates some cycles, the framebuffer must be

placed in an independent bank accessed only by the LTDC. This action reduces the external

memory latency and leads to a higher throughput. As a consequence, when double

framebuffer technique is used, it is recommended to have these buffers in two separate

banks.

This can be done by storing the frontbuffer in the first address of the SDRAM and

addressing the backbuffer by adding an offset with the size of one bank. Refer to Figure 28.
