2.1.10. Verifying and Debugging External Memory Interface Operation

Operational problems can generally be attributed to one of the following: resource and planning problems, interface configuration problems, functional problems, signal integrity problems, or timing problems.
Refer to Debugging Memory IP and the External Memory Interface Debug Toolkit for information on resolving operational problems.
