Hi Yaniv,

I'm not very familiar with Microblaze, but I'll try to help.

There are several possible reasons:

   - SDRAM cannot run at a higher frequency than Microblaze. So you need to
   reduce the SDRAM Clock to 52 MHz or speed up Microblaze core to 104Mhz.
   - Endianess. MicroBlaze is Big endian and SDRAM (IS61NLP25672) follow
   little Endian so need to assign Buses in inverted order. e.g:: address11 to
   address0 and adress10 to adress1 and so on ... also applying this for data,
   bank and DQM busses.
   - Issue of latching edge. SDRAM datasheet says to latch data at positive
   edge.


Regards,
Andrew Karpenkov
