The 256Mb SDRAM is a high-speed CMOS, dynamic random-access memory contain- ing 268,435,456 bits. It is internally configured as a quad-bank DRAM with a synchro- nous interface (all signals are registered on the positive edge of the clock signal, CLK). Each of the x4’s 67,108,864-bit banks is organized as 8192 rows by 2048 columns by 4 bits. Each of the x8’s 67,108,864-bit banks is organized as 8192 rows by 1024 columns by 8 bits. Each of the x16’s 67,108,864-bit banks is organized as 8192 rows by 512 columns by 16 bits. Read and write accesses to the SDRAM are burst-oriented; accesses start at a selected location and continue for a programmed number of locations in a programmed se- quence. Accesses begin with the registration of an ACTIVE command, which is then fol- lowed by a READ or WRITE command. The address bits registered coincident with the ACTIVE command are used to select the bank and row to be accessed (BA[1:0] select the bank; A[12:0] select the row). The address bits registered coincident with the READ or WRITE command are used to select the starting column location for the burst access. The SDRAM provides for programmable read or write burst lengths (BL) of 1, 2, 4, or 8 locations, or the full page, with a burst terminate option. An auto precharge function may be enabled to provide a self-timed row precharge that is initiated at the end of the burst sequence. The 256Mb SDRAM uses an internal pipelined architecture to achieve high-speed oper- ation. This architecture is compatible with the 2n rule of prefetch architectures, but it also allows the column address to be changed on every clock cycle to achieve a high- speed, fully random access. Precharging one bank while accessing one of the other three banks will hide the PRECHARGE cycles and provide seamless, high-speed, ran- dom-access operation. The 256Mb SDRAM is designed to operate in 3.3V memory systems. An auto refresh mode is provided, along with a power-saving, power-down mode. All inputs and out- puts are LVTTL-compatible. SDRAMs offer substantial advances in DRAM operating performance, including the ability to synchronously burst data at a high data rate with automatic column-address generation, the ability to interleave between internal banks to hide precharge time, and the capability to randomly change column addresses on each clock cycle during a burst access. Automotive Temperature The automotive temperature (AT) option adheres to the following specifications:

  • 16ms refresh rate
  • Self refresh not supported
  • Ambient and case temperature cannot be less than –40°C or greater than +105°C 256Mb: x4, x8, x16 SDRAM General Description PDF: 09005aef8091e6d1 256Mb_sdr.pdf - Rev.

Table 4: Pin and Ball Descriptions Symbol Type Description CLK Input Clock: CLK is driven by the system clock. All SDRAM input signals are sampled on the positive edge of CLK. CLK also increments the internal burst counter and controls the output registers. CKE Input Clock enable: CKE activates (HIGH) and deactivates (LOW) the CLK signal. Deactivating the clock provides precharge power-down and SELF REFRESH operation (all banks idle), active power-down (row active in any bank), or CLOCK SUSPEND operation (burst/access in pro- gress). CKE is synchronous except after the device enters power-down and self refresh modes, where CKE becomes asynchronous until after exiting the same mode. The input buffers, in- cluding CLK, are disabled during power-down and self refresh modes, providing low standby power. CKE may be tied HIGH. CS# Input Chip select: CS# enables (registered LOW) and disables (registered HIGH) the command decod- er. All commands are masked when CS# is registered HIGH, but READ/WRITE bursts already in progress will continue, and DQM operation will retain its DQ mask capability while CS# is HIGH. CS# provides for external bank selection on systems with multiple banks. CS# is consid- ered part of the command code. CAS#, RAS#, WE# Input Command inputs: RAS#, CAS#, and WE# (along with CS#) define the command being entered. x4, x8: DQM x16: DQML, DQMH LDQM, UDQM (54-ball) Input Input/output mask: DQM is sampled HIGH and is an input mask signal for write accesses and an output enable signal for read accesses. Input data is masked during a WRITE cycle. The output buffers are High-Z (two-clock latency) during a READ cycle. LDQM corresponds to DQ[7:0], and UDQM corresponds to DQ[15:8]. LDQM and UDQM are considered same-state when referenced as DQM. BA[1:0] Input Bank address input(s): BA[1:0] define to which bank the ACTIVE, READ, WRITE, or PRECHARGE command is being applied. A[12:0] Input Address inputs: A[12:0] are sampled during the ACTIVE command (row address A[12:0]) and READ or WRITE command (column address A[9:0] and A11 for x4; A[9:0] for x8; A[8:0] for x16; with A10 defining auto precharge) to select one location out of the memory array in the re- spective bank. A10 is sampled during a PRECHARGE command to determine if all banks are to be precharged (A10 HIGH) or bank selected by BA[1:0] (LOW). The address inputs also provide the op-code during a LOAD MODE REGISTER command. x16: DQ[15:0] I/O Data input/output: Data bus for x16 (pins 4, 7, 10, 13, 42, 45, 48, and 51 are NC for x8; and pins 2, 4, 7, 8, 10, 13, 42, 45, 47, 48, 51, and 53 are NC for x4). x8: DQ[7:0] I/O Data input/output: Data bus for x8 (pins 2, 8, 47, 53 are NC for x4). x4: DQ[3:0] I/O Data input/output: Data bus for x4. VDDQ Supply DQ power: DQ power to the die for improved noise immunity. VSSQ Supply DQ ground: DQ ground to the die for improved noise immunity. VDD Supply Power supply: +3.3V ±0.3V. VSS Supply Ground. NC – These should be left unconnected. For x4 and x8 parts, G1 is a no connect, but may be used as A12 in future designs. 256Mb: x4, x8, x16 SDRAM Pin and Ball Assignments and Descriptions PDF: 09005aef8091e6d1 256Mb_sdr.pdf - Rev.

Temperature and Thermal Impedance It is imperative that the SDRAM device’s temperature specifications, shown in Table 5 (page 19), be maintained to ensure the junction temperature is in the proper operat- ing range to meet data sheet specifications. An important step in maintaining the prop- er junction temperature is using the device’s thermal impedances correctly. The ther- mal impedances are listed in Table 6 (page 20) for the applicable die revision and packages being made available. These thermal impedance values vary according to the density, package, and particular design used for each device. Incorrectly using thermal impedances can produce significant errors. Read Micron technical note TN-00-08, “Thermal Applications” prior to using the thermal impedan- ces listed in Table 6 (page 20). To ensure the compatibility of current and future de- signs, contact Micron Applications Engineering to confirm thermal impedance values. The SDRAM device’s safe junction temperature range can be maintained when the TC specification is not exceeded. In applications where the device’s ambient temperature is too high, use of forced air and/or heat sinks may be required to satisfy the case tem- perature specifications.

MAX operating case temperature, T C, is measured in the center of the package on the top side of the device, as shown in Figure 11 (page 21), Figure 12 (page 21), and Fig- ure 13 (page 22). 2. Device functionality is not guaranteed if the device exceeds maximum T C during opera- tion. 3. All temperature specifications must be satisfied. 4. The case temperature should be measured by gluing a thermocouple to the top-center of the component. This should be done with a 1mm bead of conductive epoxy, as de- fined by the JEDEC EIA/JESD51 standards. Take care to ensure that the thermocouple bead is touching the case. 5.

In general, 256Mb SDRAM devices (16 Meg x 4 x 4 banks, 8 Meg x 8 x 4 banks, and 4 Meg x 16 x 4 banks) are quad-bank DRAM that operate at 3.3V and include a synchronous interface. All signals are registered on the positive edge of the clock signal, CLK. Each of the x4’s 67,108,864-bit banks is organized as 8192 rows by 2048 columns by 4 bits. Each of the x8’s 67,108,864-bit banks is organized as 8192 rows by 1024 columns by 8 bits. Each of the x16’s 67,108,864-bit banks is organized as 8192 rows by 512 columns by 16 bits. Read and write accesses to the SDRAM are burst-oriented; accesses start at a selected location and continue for a programmed number of locations in a programmed se- quence. Accesses begin with the registration of an ACTIVE command, followed by a READ or WRITE command. The address bits registered coincident with the ACTIVE command are used to select the bank and row to be accessed (BA0 and BA1 select the bank, A[12:0] select the row). The address bits (x4: A[9:0], A11; x8: A[9:0]; x16: A[8:0]) reg- istered coincident with the READ or WRITE command are used to select the starting column location for the burst access. Prior to normal operation, the SDRAM must be initialized. The following sections pro- vide detailed information covering device initialization, register definition, command descriptions, and device operation. 256Mb: x4, x8, x16 SDRAM Functional Description PDF: 09005aef8091e6d1 256Mb_sdr.pdf - Rev.

CKE is HIGH for all commands shown except SELF REFRESH. 2. A[0 :n] provide row address (where An is the most significant address bit), BA0 and BA1 determine which bank is made active. 3. A[0 :i] provide column address (where i = the most significant column address for a given device configuration). A10 HIGH enables the auto precharge feature (nonpersistent), while A10 LOW disables the auto precharge feature. BA0 and BA1 determine which bank is being read from or written to. 4. The purpose of the BURST TERMINATE command is to stop a data burst, thus the com- mand could coincide with data on the bus. However, the DQ column reads a “Don’t Care” state to illustrate that the BURST TERMINATE command can occur when there is no data present. 5. A10 LOW: BA0, BA1 determine the bank being precharged. A10 HIGH: all banks pre- charged and BA0, BA1 are “Don’t Care.” 6. This command is AUTO REFRESH if CKE is HIGH, SELF REFRESH if CKE is LOW. 7. Internal refresh counter controls row addressing; all inputs and I/Os are “Don’t Care” ex- cept for CKE. 8. A[11:0] define the op-code written to the mode register. 9. Activates or deactivates the DQ during WRITEs (zero-clock delay) and READs (two-clock delay). COMMAND INHIBIT The COMMAND INHIBIT function prevents new commands from being executed by the device, regardless of whether the CLK signal is enabled. The device is effectively de- selected. Operations already in progress are not affected. 256Mb: x4, x8, x16 SDRAM Commands PDF: 09005aef8091e6d1 256Mb_sdr.pdf - Rev.

NO OPERATION (NOP) The NO OPERATION (NOP) command is used to perform a NOP to the selected device (CS# is LOW). This prevents unwanted commands from being registered during idle or wait states. Operations already in progress are not affected. LOAD MODE REGISTER (LMR) The mode registers are loaded via inputs A[n:0] (where An is the most significant ad- dress term), BA0, and BA1(see Mode Register (page 44)). The LOAD MODE REGISTER command can only be issued when all banks are idle and a subsequent executable com- mand cannot be issued until tMRD is met. ACTIVE The ACTIVE command is used to activate a row in a particular bank for a subsequent access. The value on the BA0, BA1 inputs selects the bank, and the address provided se- lects the row. This row remains active for accesses until a PRECHARGE command is is- sued to that bank. A PRECHARGE command must be issued before opening a different row in the same bank.

The READ command is used to initiate a burst read access to an active row. The values on the BA0 and BA1 inputs select the bank; the address provided selects the starting col- umn location. The value on input A10 determines whether auto precharge is used. If au- to precharge is selected, the row being accessed is precharged at the end of the READ burst; if auto precharge is not selected, the row remains open for subsequent accesses. Read data appears on the DQ subject to the logic level on the DQM inputs two clocks earlier. If a given DQM signal was registered HIGH, the corresponding DQ will be High- Z two clocks later; if the DQM signal was registered LOW, the DQ will provide valid data.

The WRITE command is used to initiate a burst write access to an active row. The values on the BA0 and BA1 inputs select the bank; the address provided selects the starting col- umn location. The value on input A10 determines whether auto precharge is used. If au- to precharge is selected, the row being accessed is precharged at the end of the write burst; if auto precharge is not selected, the row remains open for subsequent accesses. Input data appearing on the DQ is written to the memory array, subject to the DQM in- put logic level appearing coincident with the data. If a given DQM signal is registered LOW, the corresponding data is written to memory; if the DQM signal is registered HIGH, the corresponding data inputs are ignored and a WRITE is not executed to that byte/column location.

The PRECHARGE command is used to deactivate the open row in a particular bank or the open row in all banks. The bank(s) will be available for a subsequent row access a specified time (tRP) after the PRECHARGE command is issued. Input A10 determines whether one or all banks are to be precharged, and in the case where only one bank is precharged, inputs BA0 and BA1 select the bank. Otherwise BA0 and BA1 are treated as “Don’t Care.” After a bank has been precharged, it is in the idle state and must be acti- vated prior to any READ or WRITE commands are issued to that bank.

AUTO REFRESH is used during normal operation of the SDRAM and is analogous to CAS#-BEFORE-RAS# (CBR) refresh in conventional DRAMs. This command is nonper- sistent, so it must be issued each time a refresh is required. All active banks must be pre- charged prior to issuing an AUTO REFRESH command. The AUTO REFRESH command should not be issued until the minimum tRP has been met after the PRECHARGE com- mand, as shown in Bank/Row Activation (page 49). The addressing is generated by the internal refresh controller. This makes the address bits a “Don’t Care” during an AUTO REFRESH command. Regardless of device width, the 256Mb SDRAM requires 8192 AUTO REFRESH cycles every 64ms (commercial and industrial) or 16ms (automotive). Providing a distributed AUTO REFRESH command every 7.813μs (commercial and industrial) or 1.953μs (automotive) will meet the refresh requirement and ensure that each row is refreshed. Alternatively, 8192 AUTO REFRESH commands can be issued in a burst at the minimum cycle rate (tRFC), once every 64ms (commercial and industrial) or 16ms (automotive). SELF REFRESH The SELF REFRESH command can be used to retain data in the SDRAM, even if the rest of the system is powered-down. When in the self refresh mode, the SDRAM retains data without external clocking. The SELF REFRESH command is initiated like an AUTO REFRESH command except CKE is disabled (LOW). After the SELF REFRESH command is registered, all the inputs to the SDRAM become a “Don’t Care” with the exception of CKE, which must remain LOW . After self refresh mode is engaged, the SDRAM provides its own internal clocking, caus- ing it to perform its own AUTO REFRESH cycles. The SDRAM must remain in self re- fresh mode for a minimum period equal to tRAS and may remain in self refresh mode for an indefinite period beyond that. The procedure for exiting self refresh requires a sequence of commands. First, CLK must be stable (stable clock is defined as a signal cycling within timing constraints specified for the clock pin) prior to CKE going back HIGH. After CKE is HIGH, the SDRAM must have NOP commands issued (a minimum of two clocks) for tXSR because time is required for the completion of any internal refresh in progress. Upon exiting the self refresh mode, AUTO REFRESH commands must be issued at the specified intervals, as both SELF REFRESH and AUTO REFRESH utilize the row refresh counter. Self refresh is not supported on automotive temperature devices. 256Mb: x4, x8, x16 SDRAM Commands PDF: 09005aef8091e6d1 256Mb_sdr.pdf - Rev.

SDRAM must be powered up and initialized in a predefined manner. Operational proce- dures other than those specified may result in undefined operation. After power is ap- plied to VDD and VDDQ (simultaneously) and the clock is stable (stable clock is defined as a signal cycling within timing constraints specified for the clock pin), the SDRAM re- quires a 100μs delay prior to issuing any command other than a COMMAND INHIBIT or NOP . Starting at some point during this 100μs period and continuing at least through the end of this period, COMMAND INHIBIT or NOP commands must be applied. After the 100μs delay has been satisfied with at least one COMMAND INHIBIT or NOP command having been applied, a PRECHARGE command should be applied. All banks must then be precharged, thereby placing the device in the all banks idle state. Once in the idle state, at least two AUTO REFRESH cycles must be performed. After the AUTO REFRESH cycles are complete, the SDRAM is ready for mode register program- ming. Because the mode register will power up in an unknown state, it must be loaded prior to applying any operational command. If desired, the two AUTO REFRESH com- mands can be issued after the LMR command. The recommended power-up sequence for SDRAM: 1. Simultaneously apply power to V DD and VDDQ. 2. Assert and hold CKE at a LVTTL logic LOW since all inputs and outputs are LVTTL- compatible. 3. Provide stable CLOCK signal. Stable clock is defined as a signal cycling within tim- ing constraints specified for the clock pin. 4. Wait at least 100 μs prior to issuing any command other than a COMMAND INHIB- IT or NOP . 5. Starting at some point during this 100 μs period, bring CKE HIGH. Continuing at least through the end of this period, 1 or more COMMAND INHIBIT or NOP com- mands must be applied. 6. Perform a PRECHARGE ALL command. 7. Wait at least tRP time; during this time NOPs or DESELECT commands must be given. All banks will complete their precharge, thereby placing the device in the all banks idle state. 8. Issue an AUTO REFRESH command. 9. Wait at least tRFC time, during which only NOPs or COMMAND INHIBIT com- mands are allowed. 10. Issue an AUTO REFRESH command. 11. Wait at least tRFC time, during which only NOPs or COMMAND INHIBIT com- mands are allowed. 12. The SDRAM is now ready for mode register programming. Because the mode reg- ister will power up in an unknown state, it should be loaded with desired bit values prior to applying any operational command. Using the LMR command, program the mode register. The mode register is programmed via the MODE REGISTER SET command with BA1 = 0, BA0 = 0 and retains the stored information until it is pro- grammed again or the device loses power. Not programming the mode register upon initialization will result in default settings which may not be desired. Out- puts are guaranteed High-Z after the LMR command is issued. Outputs should be High-Z already before the LMR command is issued. 13. Wait at least tMRD time, during which only NOP or DESELECT commands are al- lowed. At this point the DRAM is ready for any valid command. 256Mb: x4, x8, x16 SDRAM Initialization PDF: 09005aef8091e6d1 256Mb_sdr.pdf - Rev.

Note: More than two AUTO REFRESH commands can be issued in the sequence. After steps 9 and 10 are complete, repeat them until the desired number of AUTO REFRESH + tRFC loops is achieved.

The mode register defines the specific mode of operation, including burst length (BL), burst type, CAS latency (CL), operating mode, and write burst mode. The mode register is programmed via the LOAD MODE REGISTER command and retains the stored infor- mation until it is programmed again or the device loses power. Mode register bits M[2:0] specify the BL; M3 specifies the type of burst; M[6:4] specify the CL; M7 and M8 specify the operating mode; M9 specifies the write burst mode; and M10–Mn should be set to zero to ensure compatibility with future revisions. Mn + 1 and Mn + 2 should be set to zero to select the mode register. The mode registers must be loaded when all banks are idle, and the controller must wait tMRD before initiating the subsequent operation. Violating either of these requirements will result in unspecified operation. 256Mb: x4, x8, x16 SDRAM Mode Register PDF: 09005aef8091e6d1 256Mb_sdr.pdf - Rev.

Read and write accesses to the device are burst oriented, and the burst length (BL) is programmable. The burst length determines the maximum number of column loca- tions that can be accessed for a given READ or WRITE command. Burst lengths of 1, 2, 4, 8, or continuous locations are available for both the sequential and the interleaved burst types, and a continuous page burst is available for the sequential type. The con- tinuous page burst is used in conjunction with the BURST TERMINATE command to generate arbitrary burst lengths. Reserved states should not be used, as unknown operation or incompatibility with fu- ture versions may result. When a READ or WRITE command is issued, a block of columns equal to the burst length is effectively selected. All accesses for that burst take place within this block, meaning that the burst wraps within the block when a boundary is reached. The block is uniquely selected by A[8:1] when BL = 2, A[8:2] when BL = 4, and A[8:3] when BL = 8. The remaining (least significant) address bit(s) is (are) used to select the starting loca- tion within the block. Continuous page bursts wrap within the page when the boundary is reached. Burst Type Accesses within a given burst can be programmed to be either sequential or interleaved; this is referred to as the burst type and is selected via bit M3. The ordering of accesses within a burst is determined by the burst length, the burst type, and the starting column address. 256Mb: x4, x8, x16 SDRAM Mode Register PDF: 09005aef8091e6d1 256Mb_sdr.pdf - Rev.

The CAS latency (CL) is the delay, in clock cycles, between the registration of a READ command and the availability of the output data. The latency can be set to two or three clocks. If a READ command is registered at clock edge n, and the latency is m clocks, the data will be available by clock edge n + m. The DQ start driving as a result of the clock edge one cycle earlier (n + m - 1), and provided that the relevant access times are met, the data is valid by clock edge n + m. For example, assuming that the clock cycle time is such that all relevant access times are met, if a READ command is registered at T0 and the latency is programmed to two clocks, the DQ start driving after T1 and the data is valid by T2. Reserved states should not be used as unknown operation or incompatibility with fu- ture versions may result. Figure 20: CAS Latency CLK DQ T2T1 T3T0 CL = 3 t LZ D OUT t OH Command NOPREAD NOP NOP Don’t Care Undefined CLK DQ T2T1 T3T0 CL = 2 t LZ D OUT t OH Command NOPREAD t AC t AC NOP Operating Mode The normal operating mode is selected by setting M7 and M8 to zero; the other combi- nations of values for M7 and M8 are reserved for future use. Reserved states should not be used because unknown operation or incompatibility with future versions may result. Write Burst Mode When M9 = 0, the burst length programmed via M[2:0] applies to both READ and WRITE bursts; when M9 = 1, the programmed burst length applies to READ bursts, but write accesses are single-location (nonburst) accesses. 256Mb: x4, x8, x16 SDRAM Mode Register PDF: 09005aef8091e6d1 256Mb_sdr.pdf - Rev.

Before any READ or WRITE commands can be issued to a bank within the SDRAM, a row in that bank must be opened. This is accomplished via the ACTIVE command, which selects both the bank and the row to be activated. After a row is opened with the ACTIVE command, a READ or WRITE command can be issued to that row, subject to the tRCD specification. tRCD (MIN) should be divided by the clock period and rounded up to the next whole number to determine the earliest clock edge after the ACTIVE command on which a READ or WRITE command can be entered. For example, a tRCD specification of 20ns with a 125 MHz clock (8ns period) results in 2.5 clocks, rounded to 3. This is reflected in Figure 21 (page 49), which covers any case where 2 < tRCD (MIN)/tCK ≤ 3. (The same procedure is used to convert other specification limits from time units to clock cycles.) A subsequent ACTIVE command to a different row in the same bank can only be issued after the previous active row has been precharged. The minimum time interval between successive ACTIVE commands to the same bank is defined by tRC. A subsequent ACTIVE command to another bank can be issued while the first bank is being accessed, which results in a reduction of total row-access overhead. The mini- mum time interval between successive ACTIVE commands to different banks is defined by tRRD.

READ bursts are initiated with a READ command, as shown in Figure 15 (page 33). The starting column and bank addresses are provided with the READ command, and auto precharge is either enabled or disabled for that burst access. If auto precharge is ena- bled, the row being accessed is precharged at the completion of the burst. In the follow- ing figures, auto precharge is disabled. During READ bursts, the valid data-out element from the starting column address is available following the CAS latency after the READ command. Each subsequent data- out element will be valid by the next positive clock edge. Figure 23 (page 52) shows general timing for each possible CAS latency setting. Upon completion of a burst, assuming no other commands have been initiated, the DQ signals will go to High-Z. A continuous page burst continues until terminated. At the end of the page, it wraps to column 0 and continues. Data from any READ burst can be truncated with a subsequent READ command, and data from a fixed-length READ burst can be followed immediately by data from a READ command. In either case, a continuous flow of data can be maintained. The first data element from the new burst either follows the last element of a completed burst or the last desired data element of a longer burst that is being truncated. The new READ com- mand should be issued x cycles before the clock edge at which the last desired data ele- ment is valid, where x = CL - 1. This is shown in Figure 23 (page 52) for CL2 and CL3. SDRAM devices use a pipelined architecture and therefore do not require the 2n rule as- sociated with a prefetch architecture. A READ command can be initiated on any clock cycle following a READ command. Full-speed random read accesses can be performed to the same bank, or each subsequent READ can be performed to a different bank. 256Mb: x4, x8, x16 SDRAM READ Operation PDF: 09005aef8091e6d1 256Mb_sdr.pdf - Rev.

The DQM signal must be de-asserted prior to the WRITE command (DQM latency is zero clocks for input buffers) to ensure that the written data is not masked. Figure 24 (page 53) shows where, due to the clock cycle frequency, bus contention is avoided without having to add a NOP cycle, while Figure 25 (page 54) shows the case where an additional NOP cycle is required. A fixed-length READ burst may be followed by or truncated with a PRECHARGE com- mand to the same bank, provided that auto precharge was not activated. The PRE- CHARGE command should be issued x cycles before the clock edge at which the last de- sired data element is valid, where x = CL - 1. This is shown in Figure 26 (page 54) for each possible CL; data element n + 3 is either the last of a burst of four or the last de- sired data element of a longer burst. Following the PRECHARGE command, a subse- quent command to the same bank cannot be issued until tRP is met. Note that part of the row precharge time is hidden during the access of the last data element(s). In the case of a fixed-length burst being executed to completion, a PRECHARGE com- mand issued at the optimum time (as described above) provides the same operation that would result from the same fixed-length burst with auto precharge. The disadvant- age of the PRECHARGE command is that it requires that the command and address buses be available at the appropriate time to issue the command. The advantage of the PRECHARGE command is that it can be used to truncate fixed-length or continuous page bursts.

Continuous-page READ bursts can be truncated with a BURST TERMINATE command and fixed-length READ bursts can be truncated with a BURST TERMINATE command, provided that auto precharge was not activated. The BURST TERMINATE command should be issued x cycles before the clock edge at which the last desired data element is valid, where x = CL - 1.

WRITE bursts are initiated with a WRITE command, as shown in Figure 16 (page 34). The starting column and bank addresses are provided with the WRITE command and auto precharge is either enabled or disabled for that access. If auto precharge is ena- bled, the row being accessed is precharged at the completion of the burst. For the ge- neric WRITE commands used in the following figures, auto precharge is disabled. During WRITE bursts, the first valid data-in element is registered coincident with the WRITE command. Subsequent data elements are registered on each successive positive clock edge. Upon completion of a fixed-length burst, assuming no other commands have been initiated, the DQ will remain at High-Z and any additional input data will be ignored (see Figure 31 (page 59)). A continuous page burst continues until terminated; at the end of the page, it wraps to column 0 and continues. Data for any WRITE burst can be truncated with a subsequent WRITE command, and data for a fixed-length WRITE burst can be followed immediately by data for a WRITE command. The new WRITE command can be issued on any clock following the previ- ous WRITE command, and the data provided coincident with the new command ap- plies to the new command (see Figure 32 (page 60)). Data n + 1 is either the last of a burst of two or the last desired data element of a longer burst. SDRAM devices use a pipelined architecture and therefore do not require the 2n rule as- sociated with a prefetch architecture. A WRITE command can be initiated on any clock cycle following a previous WRITE command. Full-speed random write accesses within a page can be performed to the same bank, as shown in Figure 33 (page 61), or each subsequent WRITE can be performed to a different bank.

Each WRITE command may be issued to any bank. Data for any WRITE burst can be truncated with a subsequent READ command, and data for a fixed-length WRITE burst can be followed immediately by a READ command. After the READ command is registered, data input is ignored and WRITEs will not be executed (see Figure 34 (page 61)). Data n + 1 is either the last of a burst of two or the last desired data element of a longer burst. Data for a fixed-length WRITE burst can be followed by or truncated with a PRE- CHARGE command to the same bank, provided that auto precharge was not activated. A continuous-page WRITE burst can be truncated with a PRECHARGE command to the same bank. The PRECHARGE command should be issued tWR after the clock edge at which the last desired input data element is registered. The auto precharge mode re- quires a tWR of at least one clock with time to complete, regardless of frequency. In addition, when truncating a WRITE burst at high clock frequencies (tCK < 15ns), the DQM signal must be used to mask input data for the clock edge prior to and the clock edge coincident with the PRECHARGE command (see Figure 35 (page 62)). Data n + 1 is either the last of a burst of two or the last desired data element of a longer burst. Fol- lowing the PRECHARGE command, a subsequent command to the same bank cannot be issued until tRP is met. In the case of a fixed-length burst being executed to completion, a PRECHARGE com- mand issued at the optimum time (as described above) provides the same operation that would result from the same fixed-length burst with auto precharge. The disadvant- age of the PRECHARGE command is that it requires that the command and address buses be available at the appropriate time to issue the command. The advantage of the PRECHARGE command is that it can be used to truncate fixed-length bursts or continu- ous page bursts. 256Mb: x4, x8, x16 SDRAM WRITE Operation PDF: 09005aef8091e6d1 256Mb_sdr.pdf - Rev.

For this example, BL = 4. Burst Read/Single Write The burst read/single write mode is entered by programming the write burst mode bit (M9) in the mode register to a 1. In this mode, all WRITE commands result in the access of a single column location (burst of one), regardless of the programmed burst length. READ commands access columns according to the programmed burst length and se- quence, just as in the normal mode of operation (M9 = 0). 256Mb: x4, x8, x16 SDRAM WRITE Operation PDF: 09005aef8091e6d1 256Mb_sdr.pdf - Rev.

The PRECHARGE command (see Figure 17 (page 35)) is used to deactivate the open row in a particular bank or the open row in all banks. The bank(s) will be available for a sub- sequent row access some specified time (tRP) after the PRECHARGE command is is- sued. Input A10 determines whether one or all banks are to be precharged, and in the case where only one bank is to be precharged (A10 = LOW), inputs BA0 and BA1 select the bank. When all banks are to be precharged (A10 = HIGH), inputs BA0 and BA1 are treated as “Don’t Care.” After a bank has been precharged, it is in the idle state and must be activated prior to any READ or WRITE commands being issued to that bank. Auto Precharge Auto precharge is a feature that performs the same individual-bank PRECHARGE func- tion described previously, without requiring an explicit command. This is accomplished by using A10 to enable auto precharge in conjunction with a specific READ or WRITE command. A precharge of the bank/row that is addressed with the READ or WRITE command is automatically performed upon completion of the READ or WRITE burst, except in the continuous page burst mode where auto precharge does not apply. In the specific case of write burst mode set to single location access with burst length set to continuous, the burst length setting is the overriding setting and auto precharge does not apply. Auto precharge is nonpersistent in that it is either enabled or disabled for each individual READ or WRITE command. Auto precharge ensures that the precharge is initiated at the earliest valid stage within a burst. Another command cannot be issued to the same bank until the precharge time (tRP) is completed. This is determined as if an explicit PRECHARGE command was is- sued at the earliest possible time, as described for each burst type in the Burst Type (page 46) section. Micron SDRAM supports concurrent auto precharge; cases of concurrent auto pre- charge for READs and WRITEs are defined below. READ with auto precharge interrupted by a READ (with or without auto precharge) A READ to bank m will interrupt a READ on bank n following the programmed CAS la- tency. The precharge to bank n begins when the READ to bank m is registered (see Fig- ure 40 (page 68)). READ with auto precharge interrupted by a WRITE (with or without auto precharge) A WRITE to bank m will interrupt a READ on bank n when registered. DQM should be used two clocks prior to the WRITE command to prevent bus contention. The pre- charge to bank n begins when the WRITE to bank m is registered (see Figure 41 (page 69)). WRITE with auto precharge interrupted by a READ (with or without auto precharge) A READ to bank m will interrupt a WRITE on bank n when registered, with the data-out appearing CL later. The precharge to bank n will begin after tWR is met, where tWR be- gins when the READ to bank m is registered. The last valid WRITE to bank n will be da- ta-in registered one clock prior to the READ to bank m (see Figure 46 (page 74)). WRITE with auto precharge interrupted by a WRITE (with or without auto precharge) A WRITE to bank m will interrupt a WRITE on bank n when registered. The precharge to bank n will begin after tWR is met, where tWR begins when the WRITE to bank m is reg- 256Mb: x4, x8, x16 SDRAM PRECHARGE Operation PDF: 09005aef8091e6d1 256Mb_sdr.pdf - Rev.

The AUTO REFRESH command is used during normal operation of the device to refresh the contents of the array. This command is nonpersistent, so it must be issued each time a refresh is required. All active banks must be precharged prior to issuing an AUTO REFRESH command. The AUTO REFRESH command should not be issued until the minimum tRP is met following the PRECHARGE command. Addressing is generated by the internal refresh controller. This makes the address bits “Don’t Care” during an AU- TO REFRESH command. After the AUTO REFRESH command is initiated, it must not be interrupted by any exe- cutable command until tRFC has been met. During tRFC time, COMMAND INHIBIT or NOP commands must be issued on each positive edge of the clock. The SDRAM re- quires that every row be refreshed each tREF period. Providing a distributed AUTO RE- FRESH command—calculated by dividing the refresh period (tREF) by the number of rows to be refreshed—meets the timing requirement and ensures that each row is re- freshed. Alternatively, to satisfy the refresh requirement a burst refresh can be employed after every tREF period by issuing consecutive AUTO REFRESH commands for the num- ber of rows to be refreshed at the minimum cycle rate (tRFC). 256Mb: x4, x8, x16 SDRAM AUTO REFRESH Operation PDF: 09005aef8091e6d1 256Mb_sdr.pdf - Rev.

The self refresh mode can be used to retain data in the device, even when the rest of the system is powered down. When in self refresh mode, the device retains data without ex- ternal clocking. The SELF REFRESH command is initiated like an AUTO REFRESH com- mand, except CKE is disabled (LOW). After the SELF REFRESH command is registered, all the inputs to the device become “Don’t Care” with the exception of CKE, which must remain LOW . After self refresh mode is engaged, the device provides its own internal clocking, ena- bling it to perform its own AUTO REFRESH cycles. The device must remain in self re- fresh mode for a minimum period equal to tRAS and remains in self refresh mode for an indefinite period beyond that. The procedure for exiting self refresh requires a sequence of commands. First, CLK must be stable prior to CKE going back HIGH. (Stable clock is defined as a signal cycling within timing constraints specified for the clock ball.) After CKE is HIGH, the device must have NOP commands issued for a minimum of two clocks for tXSR because time is required for the completion of any internal refresh in progress. Upon exiting the self refresh mode, AUTO REFRESH commands must be issued accord- ing to the distributed refresh rate (tREF/refresh row count) as both SELF REFRESH and AUTO REFRESH utilize the row refresh counter. 256Mb: x4, x8, x16 SDRAM SELF REFRESH Operation PDF: 09005aef8091e6d1 256Mb_sdr.pdf - Rev.

Power-down occurs if CKE is registered LOW coincident with a NOP or COMMAND IN- HIBIT when no accesses are in progress. If power-down occurs when all banks are idle, this mode is referred to as precharge power-down; if power-down occurs when there is a row active in any bank, this mode is referred to as active power-down. Entering power- down deactivates the input and output buffers, excluding CKE, for maximum power savings while in standby. The device cannot remain in the power-down state longer than the refresh period (64ms) because no REFRESH operations are performed in this mode. The power-down state is exited by registering a NOP or COMMAND INHIBIT with CKE HIGH at the desired clock edge (meeting tCKS).

The clock suspend mode occurs when a column access/burst is in progress and CKE is registered LOW . In the clock suspend mode, the internal clock is deactivated, freezing the synchronous logic. For each positive clock edge on which CKE is sampled LOW, the next internal positive clock edge is suspended. Any command or data present on the input balls when an in- ternal clock edge is suspended will be ignored; any data present on the DQ balls re- mains driven; and burst counters are not incremented, as long as the clock is suspen- ded. Exit clock suspend mode by registering CKE HIGH; the internal clock and related opera- tion will resume on the subsequent positive clock edge.
