Section II. DDR3 SDRAM Controller with ALTMEMPHY IP User Guide
The following sequence corresponds with the numbered items in Figure 9–5:
1. The user logic requests write by asserting the 
local_write_req
 signal.
2. The 
local_ready
 signal is asserted, indicating that the controller has accepted the 
request. 
3. The data written to the memory for the write command.
4. The controller requests the user logic for the write data and byte-enables for the 
write by asserting the 
local_wdata_req
 signal.
5. The write (WR) command on the command bus.
6. The valid write data on the 
ctl_wdata
 signal.
7. The valid data on the 
mem_dq
 signal goes to the controller.
