INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an information processing apparatus that makes the use efficiency of the bandwidth of a dynamic random access memory higher.

SOLUTION: Disclosed herein is an information processing apparatus including: a dynamic random access memory 11; a memory controller 12; a cache memory 14; and an image processing block 15. The cache memory 14 includes: a refill request generation section 142 configured to generate a refill request for caching data stored in the dynamic random access memory 11 in response to a cache miss for read access that the image processing block 15 gains for each storage area that the memory controller 12 manages in bank units; and a system bus interface 146 configured to, when the refill requests have been accumulated for a predetermined number of banks that the memory controller manages, performs a read access to the dynamic random access memory while combining the refill requests.
