The innovative architecture driving the highest utilization and lowest latency 

OPENEDGES
DDR Memory Controller, OMC

OPENEDGES Memory Controller, OMC 

Delivers excellent performance in addition to high utilization and ultra-low latency, achieved by its proprietary out-of-scheduling algorithm and high-speed implementation. Designed to address the needs of next-generation SoCs, OMC saves a significant amount of area and power while supporting the highest levels of the DRAM bandwidth.

OMC integrates seamlessly with the OPENEDGES DDR PHY(OPHY) and On-Chip Interconnect (OIC) to deliver a complete memory subsystem. OMC also supports third-party DDR PHYs, providing full functional verification for use with any PHY implementation.
