Hi,

How fast it is possible to drive external IC using Paraller Port (32bit wide, mixed PINs from various port) via DMA or other technics. I have connected also exteral SDRAM to MCU.

It is possible to achive about 40 - 50 MHz update freq ot entire port ?

Thank you in advance for all sugesstions.

Use the FSMC/FMC to write to a 32-bit data bus, and have external latch catch the write cycle (as if it were a SRAM or NOR type device)

Hi. I use fmc to sdram. I want to established communication from mcu to other ic independly from sdram lines. Data from sdram should be go the fastest way to parallrl port.

The bus can interface to multiple devices. The GPIO banks are only 16-bit wide and the addresses are sufficiently far apart that you can't DMA a 32-bit word to a pair of them in consecutive transactions. The bus width to the video dac also isn't wide enough.
