STM32H7 SDRAM IS42S16320F-7, Mem Viewer Works, But Code Generates Mem Access Violations

[BComp]

I am working with a new design which includes a STM32H7A3IGT6 with a connected SDRAM, IS42S16320F-7.

I've followed advice from this article:

https://community.st.com/s/article/How-to-set-up-the-FMC-peripheral-to-interface-with-the-SDRAM-IS42S16800F-6BLI-from-ISSI

When I pause the program after initialization, I can use the memory viewer to view and modify memory at 0xC0000000 with no issues. However, when I hit any code that attempts to view or modify that same memory range I get a memory fault.

CFSR shows MMARVALID and DACCVIOL. MMFAR points to 0xC0000000.

Here is my configuration:

 

SDRAM Init Function:

/**
 * @brief Perform the SDRAM external memory initialization sequence
 * @param hsdram: SDRAM handle
 * @param Command: Pointer to SDRAM command structure
 * @retval None
 */
static void SDRAM_Initialization_Sequence(SDRAM_HandleTypeDef *hsdram, FMC_SDRAM_CommandTypeDef *Command)
{
 volatile HAL_StatusTypeDef result;
 __IO uint32_t tmpmrd =0;
 /* Step 1: Configure a clock configuration enable command */
 Command->CommandMode = FMC_SDRAM_CMD_CLK_ENABLE;
 Command->CommandTarget = FMC_SDRAM_CMD_TARGET_BANK1;
 Command->AutoRefreshNumber = 1;
 Command->ModeRegisterDefinition = 0;
 
 /* Send the command */
 result = HAL_SDRAM_SendCommand(hsdram, Command, SDRAM_TIMEOUT);
 
 /* Step 2: Insert 100 us minimum delay */
 /* Inserted delay is equal to 1 ms due to systick time base unit (ms) */
 HAL_Delay(1);
 
 /* Step 3: Configure a PALL (precharge all) command */
 Command->CommandMode = FMC_SDRAM_CMD_PALL;
 Command->CommandTarget = FMC_SDRAM_CMD_TARGET_BANK1;
 Command->AutoRefreshNumber = 1;
 Command->ModeRegisterDefinition = 0;
 
 /* Send the command */
 result |= HAL_SDRAM_SendCommand(hsdram, Command, SDRAM_TIMEOUT);
 
 /* Step 4 : Configure a Auto-Refresh command */
 Command->CommandMode = FMC_SDRAM_CMD_AUTOREFRESH_MODE;
 Command->CommandTarget = FMC_SDRAM_CMD_TARGET_BANK1;
 Command->AutoRefreshNumber = 8;
 Command->ModeRegisterDefinition = 0;
 
 /* Send the command */
 result |= HAL_SDRAM_SendCommand(hsdram, Command, SDRAM_TIMEOUT);
 
 /* Step 5: Program the external memory mode register */
 tmpmrd = (uint32_t)SDRAM_MODEREG_BURST_LENGTH_1 |
 SDRAM_MODEREG_BURST_TYPE_SEQUENTIAL |
 SDRAM_MODEREG_CAS_LATENCY_3 |
 SDRAM_MODEREG_OPERATING_MODE_STANDARD |
 SDRAM_MODEREG_WRITEBURST_MODE_SINGLE;
 
 Command->CommandMode = FMC_SDRAM_CMD_LOAD_MODE;
 Command->CommandTarget = FMC_SDRAM_CMD_TARGET_BANK1;
 Command->AutoRefreshNumber = 1;
 Command->ModeRegisterDefinition = tmpmrd;
 
 /* Send the command */
 result |= HAL_SDRAM_SendCommand(hsdram, Command, SDRAM_TIMEOUT);
 
 /* Step 6: Set the refresh rate counter */
 /* Set the device refresh rate
 * COUNT = [(SDRAM self refresh time / number of row) x SDRAM CLK] – 20*/
 result |= HAL_SDRAM_ProgramRefreshRate(hsdram, REFRESH_COUNT);
}

#define SDRAM_TIMEOUT ((uint32_t)0xFFFF)
#define REFRESH_COUNT ((uint32_t)400) /* SDRAM refresh counter */

  

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
