sdram(1) Qualcomm Atheros Open Powerline Toolkit sdram(1)
NAME
sdram - Atheros SDRAM Configuration File Generator
SYNOPSIS
sdram
DESCRIPTION
The Atheros SDRAM Configuration File Generator creates two INT6300 SDRAM configuration files in the current working
folder. Either of them may be used as the argument for the int6kf -C option when initializing INT6300 devices. Read the
int6kf man page for more information.
This program is part of the Qualcomm Atheros Powerline Toolkit. See the AMP man page for an overview and installation
instructions.
BACKGROUND
Configuration files for the Linux Toolkit have .cfg extensions and consist of 32 binary bytes plus a 32 bit checksum.
They are difficult to modify but easy to verify. The format requires no conversion on input or output and, consequently,
it is preferred to that used by the Windows Device Manager.
Configuration files for the Windows Device Manager have .config extensions and consist of 64 hexadecimal ASCII charac‐
ters. They are easily modified using a text editor but cannot be easily validated. They require ASCII to binary conver‐
sion on input and binary to ASCII conversion on output. Read the config2cfg man page for more information.
OPTIONS
There are no options.
EXAMPLES
The following example writes two files, sdram16mb.cfg and sdram64.cfg, in the current working folder. They will replace
any existing files having the same names.
# sdram
writing sdram16mb.cfg
writing sdram64mb.cfg
DISCLAIMER
The SDRAM file structure and content is proprietary to Qualcomm Atheros, Ocala FL USA. Consequently, public information
is not available. Qualcomm Atheros reserves the right to change the file structure or content in future firmware
releases without any obligation to notify or compensate users of this program.
