Notes :
1. Parameters depend on programmed CAS latency.
2. If clock rising time is longer than 1ns, (tr/2-0.5)ns should be added to the parameter.
3. Assumed input rise and fall time (tr & tf) = 1ns.
If tr & tf is longer than 1ns, transient time compensation should be considered,
i.e., [(tr + tf)/2-1]ns should be added to the parameter.

Note :
1. OP Code : Operand Code
A0 ~ A11 & BA 0 ~ BA1 : Program keys. (@MRS)
2. MRS can be issued only at all banks precharge state.
A new command can be issued after 2 CLK cycles of MRS.
3. Auto refresh functions are the same as CBR refresh of DRAM.
The automatical precharge without row precharge command is meant by "Auto".
Auto/self refresh can be issued only at all banks precharge state.
4. BA0 ~ BA1 : Bank select addresses.
If both BA0 and BA1 are "Low" at read, write, row active and precharge, bank A is selected.
If BA0 is "Low" and BA1 is "High" at read, write, row active and precharge, bank B is selected.
If BA0 is "High" and BA1 is "Low" at read, write, row active and precharge, bank C is selected.
If both BA0 and BA1 are "High" at read, write, row active and precharge, bank D is selected.
If A10/AP is "High" at row precharge, BA0 and BA1 is ignored and all banks are selected.
5. During burst read or write with auto precharge, new read/write command can not be issued.
Another bank read/write command can be issued after the end of burst.
New row active of the associated bank can be issued at tRP after the end of burst.
6. Burst stop command is valid at every burst length.
7. DQM sampled at the positive going edge of CLK masks the data-in at that same CLK in write operation (Write DQM latency
is 0), but in read operation it makes the data-out Hi-Z state after 2 CLK cycles. (Read DQM latency is 2).

4,194,304 words x 32 bits memory arrays. The BA0 ~ BA1 inputs
are latched at the time of assertion of RAS and CAS to select the
bank to be used for the operation. The bank addresses BA0 ~ BA1
are latched at bank active, read, write, mode register set and pre-
charge operations.
ADDRESS INPUTS (A0 ~ A12)
: In case x 16
The 23 address bits are required to decode the 8,388,608 word
locations are multiplexed into 13 address input pins (A0 ~ A12).
The 13 bit row addresses are latched along with RAS and BA0 ~
BA1 during bank activate command. The 10 bit column addresses
are latched along with CAS, WE and BA0 ~ BA1 during read or
write command.

D. DEVICE OPERATIONS (continued)
CLOCK (CLK)
The clock input is used as the reference for all SDRAM opera-
tions. All operations are synchronized to the positive going edge
of the clock. The clock transitions must be monotonic between VIL
and VIH. During operation with CKE high all inputs are assumed to
be in a valid state (low or high) for the duration of set-up and hold
time around positive edge of the clock in order to function well Q
perform and ICC specifications.
CLOCK ENABLE (CKE)
The clock enable(CKE) gates the clock onto SDRAM. If CKE goes
low synchronously with clock (set-up and hold time are the same
as other inputs), the internal clock is suspended from the next
clock cycle and the state of output and burst address is frozen as
long as the CKE remains low. All other inputs are ignored from the
next clock cycle after CKE goes low. When all banks are in the
idle state and CKE goes low synchronously with clock, the
SDRAM enters the power down mode from the next clock cycle.
The SDRAM remains in the power down mode ignoring the other
inputs as long as CKE remains low. The power down exit is syn-
chronous as the internal clock is suspended. When CKE goes
high at least "1CLK + tSS " before the high going edge of the clock,
then the SDRAM becomes active from the same clock edge
accepting all the input commands.
NOP and DEVICE DESELECT
When RAS, CAS and WE are high, the SDRAM performs no
operation (NOP). NOP does not initiate any new operation, but is
needed to complete operations which require more than single
clock cycle like bank activate, burst read, auto refresh, etc. The
device deselect is also a NOP and is entered by asserting CS
high. CS high disables the command decoder so that RAS, CAS,
WE and all the address inputs are ignored.
DQM OPERATION
The DQM is used to mask input and output operations. It works
similar to OE during read operation and inhibits writing during
write operation. The read latency is two cycles from DQM and
zero cycle for write, which means DQM masking occurs two
cycles later in read cycle and occurs in the same cycle during
write cycle. DQM operation is synchronous with the clock. The
DQM signal is important during burst interruptions of write with
read or precharge in the SDRAM. Due to asynchronous nature of
the internal write, the DQM operation is critical to avoid unwanted
or incomplete writes when the complete burst write is not
required. Please refer to DQM timing diagram also.
MODE REGISTER SET (MRS)
The mode register stores the data for controlling the various oper-
ating modes of SDRAM. It programs the CAS latency, burst type,
burst length, test mode and various vendor specific options to
make SDRAM useful for variety of different applications. The
default value of the mode register is not defined, therefore the
mode register must be written after power up to operate the
SDRAM. The mode register is written by asserting low on CS,
RAS, CAS and WE (The SDRAM should be in active mode with
CKE already high prior to writing the mode register). The state of
address pins A0 ~ An and BA0 ~ BA1 in the same cycle as CS,
RAS, CAS and WE going low is the data written in the mode reg-
ister. Two clock cycles is required to complete the write in the
mode register. The mode register contents can be changed using
the same command and clock cycle requirements during opera-
tion as long as all banks are in the idle state. The mode register is
divided into various fields depending on the fields of functions.
The burst length field uses A0 ~ A2, burst type uses A3, CAS
latency (read latency from column address) use A4 ~ A6, vendor
specific options or test mode use A7 ~ A8, A10 /AP ~ An and BA0 ~
BA1. The write burst length is programmed using A9. A7 ~ A8, A10/
AP ~ An and BA0 ~ BA1 must be set to low for normal SDRAM
operation. Refer to the table for specific codes for various burst
length, burst type and CAS latencies.

D. DEVICE OPERATIONS (continued)
EXTENDED MODE REGISTER SET (EMRS)
The extended mode register stores the data for selecting partial
self refresh or temperature compensated self refresh. EMRS
cycle is not mandatory and the EMRS command needs to be
issued only when either PASR or TCSR is used. The default state
without EMRS command issued is +85°C and all 4 banks
refreshed. The extended mode register is written by asserting
low on CS, RAS, CAS, WE and high on BA1 ,low on BA0(The
DDR SDRAM should be in all bank precharge with CKE already
high prior to writing into the extended mode register). The state of
address pins A0 ~ A11 in the same cycle as CS, RAS, CAS and
WE going low is written in the extended mode register. Two clock
cycles are required to complete the write operation in the
extended mode register. The mode register contents can be
changed using the same command and clock cycle requirements
during operation as long as all banks are in the idle state. A0 - A2
are used for partila self refresh and A3 - A4 are used for Tempra-
ture compensated self refresh. "Low" on BA1 and "High" on BA0
are used for EMRS. All the other address pins except A0,A1,A2,
BA1, BA0 must be set to low for proper EMRS operation. Refer to
the table for specific codes.
BANK ACTIVATE.
The bank activate command is used to select a random row in an
idle bank. By asserting low on RAS and CS with desired row and
bank address, a row access is initiated. The read or write opera-
tion can occur after a time delay of tRCD(min) from the time of
bank activation. tRCD is an internal timing parameter of SDRAM,
therefore it is dependent on operating clock frequency. The mini-
mum number of clock cycles required between bank activate and
read or write command should be calculated by dividing tRCD(min)
with cycle time of the clock and then rounding off the result to the
next higher integer.
The SDRAM has four internal banks in the same chip and shares
part of the internal circuitry to reduce chip area, therefore it
restricts the activation of four banks simultaneously. Also the
noise generated during sensing of each bank of SDRAM is high,
requiring some time for power supplies to recover before another
bank can be sensed reliably. tRRD(min) specifies the minimum
time required between activating different bank. The number of
clock cycles required between different bank activation must be
calculated similar to tRCD specification. The minimum time
required for the bank to be active to initiate sensing and restoring
the complete row of dynamic cells is determined by tRAS(min).
Every SDRAM bank activate command must satisfy tRAS(min)
specification before a precharge command to that active bank can
be asserted. The maximum time any bank can be in the active
state is determined by tRAS(max). The number of cycles for both
tRAS(min) and tRAS(max) can be calculated similar to tRCD specifi-
cation.
BURST READ
The burst read command is used to access burst of data on con-
secutive clock cycles from an active row in an active bank. The
burst read command is issued by asserting low on CS and CAS
with WE being high on the positive edge of the clock. The bank
must be active for at least tRCD(min) before the burst read com-
mand is issued. The first output appears in CAS latency number
of clock cycles after the issue of burst read command. The burst
length, burst sequence and latency from the burst read command
is determined by the mode register which is already programmed.
The burst read can be initiated on any column address of the
active row. The address wraps around if the initial address does
not start from a boundary such that number of outputs from each
I/O are equal to the burst length programmed in the mode regis-
ter. The output goes into high-impedance at the end of the burst,
unless a new burst read was initiated to keep the data output gap-
less. The burst read can be terminated by issuing another burst
read or burst write in the same bank or the other active bank or a
precharge command to the same bank. The burst stop command
is valid at every page burst length.

ELECTRONICS
D. DEVICE OPERATIONS (continued)
BURST WRITE
The burst write command is similar to burst read command and is
used to write data into the SDRAM on consecutive clock cycles in
adjacent addresses depending on burst length and burst
sequence. By asserting low on CS, CAS and WE with valid col-
umn address, a write burst is initiated. The data inputs are pro-
vided for the initial address in the same clock cycle as the burst
write command. The input buffer is deselected at the end of the
burst length, even though the internal writing can be completed
yet. The writing can be completed by issuing a burst read and
DQM for blocking data inputs or burst write in the same or another
active bank. The burst stop command is valid at every burst
length. The write burst can also be terminated by using DQM for
blocking data and procreating the bank tRDL after the last data
input to be written into the active row. See DQM OPERATION
also.
ALL BANKS PRECHARGE
All banks can be precharged at the same time by using Precharge
all command. Asserting low on CS, RAS, and WE with high on
A10/AP after all banks have satisfied tRAS (min) requirement, per-
forms precharge on all banks. At the end of tRP after performing
precharge to all the banks, all banks are in idle state.
PRECHARGE
The precharge operation is performed on an active bank by
asserting low on CS, RAS, WE and A10/AP with valid BA0 ~ BA1
of the bank to be precharged. The precharge command can be
asserted anytime after tRAS(min) is satisfied from the bank active
command in the desired bank. tRP is defined as the minimum
number of clock cycles required to complete row precharge is cal-
culated by dividing tRP with clock cycle time and rounding up to
the next higher integer. Care should be taken to make sure that
burst write is completed or DQM is used to inhibit writing before
precharge command is asserted. The maximum time any bank
can be active is specified by tRAS(max). Therefore, each bank
activate command. At the end of precharge, the bank enters the
idle state and is ready to be activated again. Entry to Power down,
Auto refresh, Self refresh and Mode register set etc. is possible
only when all banks are in idle state.
AUTO PRECHARGE
The precharge operation can also be performed by using auto pre-
charge. The SDRAM internally generates the timing to satisfy
tRAS(min) and "tRP" for the programmed burst length and CAS
latency. The auto precharge command is issued at the same time
as burst read or burst write by asserting high on A10/AP. If burst
read or burst write by asserting high on A10/AP, the bank is left
active until a new command is asserted. Once auto precharge
command is given, no new commands are possible to that particu-
lar bank until the bank achieves idle state.
AUTO REFRESH
The storage cells of 64Mb, 128Mb and 256Mb SDRAM need to be
refreshed every 64ms to maintain data. An auto refresh cycle
accomplishes refresh of a single row of storage cells. The internal
counter increments automatically on every auto refresh cycle to
refresh all the rows. An auto refresh command is issued by
asserting low on CS, RAS and CAS with high on CKE and WE.
The auto refresh command can only be asserted with both banks
being in idle state and the device is not in power down mode (CKE
is high in the previous cycle). The time required to complete the
auto refresh operation is specified by tRC(min). The minimum num-
ber of clock cycles required can be calculated by driving tRC with
clock cycle time and them rounding up to the next higher integer.
The auto refresh command must be followed by NOP's until the
auto refresh operation is completed. All banks will be in the idle
state at the end of auto refresh operation. The auto refresh is the
preferred refresh mode when the SDRAM is being used for normal
data transactions. The 64Mb and 128Mb SDRAM’s auto refresh
cycle can be performed once in 15.6us or a burst of 4096 auto
refresh cycles once in 64ms. The 256Mb SDRAM’s auto refresh
cycle can be performed once in 7.8us or a burst of 8192 auto
refresh cycles once in 64ms.
CMOS SDRAMDEVICE OPERATIONS
ELECTRONICS
SELF REFRESH
The self refresh is another refresh mode available in the SDRAM.
The self refresh is the preferred refresh mode for data retention
and low power operation of SDRAM. In self refresh mode, the
SDRAM disables the internal clock and all the input buffers except
CKE. The refresh addressing and timing are internally generated
to reduce power consumption.
The self refresh mode is entered from all banks idle state by
asserting low on CS, RAS, CAS and CKE with high on WE. Once
the self refresh mode is entered, only CKE state being low mat-
ters, all the other inputs including the clock are ignored in order to
remain in the self refresh mode.
The self refresh is exited by restarting the external clock and then
asserting high on CKE. This must be followed by NOP's for a mini-
mum time of tRC before the SDRAM reaches idle state to begin
normal operation. If the system uses burst auto refresh during nor-
mal operation, it is recommended to use burst 8192 auto refresh
cycles for 256Mb and burst 4096 auto refresh cycles for 128Mb
and 64Mb immediately after exiting in self refresh mode.

*Note : 1. BRSW modes is enabled by setting A9 "High" at MRS (Mode Register Set).
At the BRSW Mode, the burst length at write is fixed to "1" regardless of programmed burst length.
2. When BRSW write command with auto precharge is executed, keep it in mind that tRAS should not be violated.
Auto precharge is executed at the burst-end cycle, so in the case of BRSW write command,
the next cycle starts the precharge.

Self Refresh Entry & Exit Cycle
Self Refresh Entry
: Don't care
*Note : TO ENTER SELF REFRESH MODE
1. CS, RAS & CAS with CKE should be low at the same clcok cycle.
2. After 1 clock cycle, all the inputs including the system clock can be don't care except for CKE.
3. The device remains in self refresh mode as long as CKE stays "Low".
cf.) Once the device enters self refresh mode, minimum tRAS is required before exit from self refresh.
TO EXIT SELF REFRESH MODE
4. System clock restart and be stable before returning CKE high.
5. CS starts from high.
6. Minimum tRC is required after CKE going high to complete self refresh exit.
7. 4K cycle(64Mb ,128Mb) or 8K cycle(256Mb) of burst auto refresh is required before self refresh entry and
after self refresh exit if the system uses burst refresh.
