GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The 64Mb SDRAM is a high-speed CMOS, dynamic ran-
dom-access memory containing 67,108,864 bits. It is internally
con gured as a quad-bank DRAM with a synchronous interface
(all signals are registered on the positive edge of the clock signal,
CLK). Each of the x16’s 6,777,216-bit banks is organized as
4,096 rows by 256 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 sequence. 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 (BA0, BA1 select the bank; A0-A1 1 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 of 1, 2, 4 or 8 locations, or the full page, with a burst
terminate option. An AUTO PRECHARGE function may be en-
abled to provide a self-timed row precharge that is initiated at the
end of the burst sequence.
The 64Mb SDRAM uses an internal pipelined architecture
to achieve high-speed operation. 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 ac-
cessing one of the other three banks will hide the precharge cycles
and provide seamless, high-speed, random-access operation.
The 64Mb SDRAM is designed to operate in 3.3V, low-power
memory systems. An auto refresh mode is provided, along with
a power-saving, power-down mode. All inputs and outputs 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 abil-
ity to interleave between internal banks in order to hide precharge
time and the capability to randomly change column addresses on
each clock cycle during a burst access.

ENHANCING RELIABILITY WITH COPPER LEAD FRAMES1
ADVANTAGES & BENEFITS
Superior thermal conductivity improvement: 170 W/m*K
vs. 14 W/m*K (a 12X difference).
θ ja and θ jc characteristics provide up to 3.8X advantage
of heat dissipation capability versus parts with alloy 42
lead frames.
Heat dissipated from the die faster makes it run cooler
leading to longer life.
Solder joint reliability vastly improved.
- CTE of Copper (17 ppm/ oC), matches the CTE of Typical
FR4 PWBs (15-17 ppm/ oC)
- CTE of Alloy 42 (5 ppm/ oC), mismatch to CTE of FR4
PWBs (15-17 ppm/ oC)
RoHS Version (NiPdAu plating)
- Most preferred for elimination of risk for whisker growth.
The use of copper lead frames inherently allow for better solder joint reliability, tin whisker prevention and
better thermal dissipation. These are three big factors in overall system reliability over time.
Better Solder Joint Reliability
Many systems are expected to operate reliably over broad temperature variations spanning the industrial
(-400C to +850C) and military (-550C to +1250C) temperature ranges. System problems can be caused
by the mismatch of thermal coef cients of all system components. Better solder joint reliability is obtained
since the copper lead frame is more exible, and the CTE of the copper lead frame is better matched with
that of typical FR4 PWBs, than that of Alloy 42. Repeated thermal cycles over a period of time can take a
toll on solder joints, causing cracks and intermittent connections where expansion and contraction of the
lead frame is at a different rate than the FR4 PWB that it is attached to.
Whisker Prevention
The RoHS version of this copper lead frame, with its’ NiPdAu (Nickel-Palladium-Gold) plating, eliminates
the risk of tin whiskers. Microscopic whiskers can grow on a parts’ pins than have tin content in the plat-
ing. Traditionally Alloy 42 lead frames have a Sn or PbSn plating. This plating containing tin, along with
certain environmental conditions can cause these whiskers to grow. Their growth may extend to form a
bridge with another pin on the device, or the whisker may break off and cause a short circuit or even an
explosive power surge on the board. The organization, iNEMI (International Electronics Manufacturing
Initiative) lists the NiPdAu lead plating as the most preferred for elimination of risk for whiskers.
Better Thermal Dissipation
Because copper has a 10X to 12X improvement in thermal conductivity vs. Alloy 42, and since θ ja and θ jc
characteristics of copper provide up to 3.8X advantage over Alloy 42, more ef cient thermal dissipation is
the result. This translates to better heat dissipated away from the chip through the lead frame and PWB,
thus extending the useful life of the die by reducing die junction temperature. Therefore less heat stress
remains in the device, which is a leading cause of non-mechanical failure in a long life application.

PIN DESCRIPTION
TSOP
PIN NUMBERS
38 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.
37 CKE Input Clock Enable: CKE activates (HIGH) and deactivates (LOW) the CLK signal.
Deactivating the clock provides PRECHARGE POWER-DOWN and SELF
REFRESH operations (all banks idle), ACTIVE POWER-DOWN (row ACTIVE
in either bank) or CLOCK SUSPEND operation (burst/access in progress).
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, including CLK, are disabled during power-down
and self refresh modes, providing low standby power. CKE may be tied
HIGH.
19 CS\ Input Chip Select: CS\ enables (registered LOW) and disables (registered HIGH)
the command decoder. All commands are masked when CS\ is registered
HIGH. CS\ provides for external bank selection on systems with multiple
banks. CS\ is considered part of the command code.
16, 17 WE\, CAS\ Input Command Inputs: RAS\, CAS\, and WE\ (along with CS\) define the
18 RAS\ command being entered.
15, 39 DQML, Input Input/Output Mask: DQM is an input mask signal for write accesses and an
DQMH output enable signal for read accesses. Input data is masked when DQM is
sampled HIGH during a WRITE cycle. The output buffers are placed in a
High-Z state (two-clock latency) when DQM is sampled HIGH during a READ
cycle. DQML corresponds to DQ0-DQ7; DQMH corresponds to DQ8-DQ15.
DQML and DQMH are considered same state when referenced as DQM.
20, 21 BA0, BA1 Input Bank Address Inputs: BA0 and BA1 define to which bank the ACTIVE, READ,
WRITE or PRECHARGE command is being applied.
23-26, 29-34, A0-A11 Input Address Inputs: A0-A11 are sampled during the ACTIVE command (row
22, 35 address A0-A11) and READ/WRITE command (column address A0-A7, with
A10 defining AUTO PRECHARGE) to select one location out of the memory
array in the respective bank. A10 is sampled during a PRECHARGE
command to determine if all banks are to be precharged (A10 HIGH) or bank
selected by BA0,BA1 (LOW). The address inputs also provide the op-code
during a LOAD MODE REGISTER command.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
In general, the 64Mb SDRAM is quad-bank DRAM (1
Meg x 16 x 4 banks) which operate at 3.3V and include a synchro-
nous interface (all signals are registered on the positive edge of
the clock signal, CLK). Each of the x16’s 16,777,216-bit banks
is organized as 4,096 rows by 256 columns by 16 bits.
Read and write accesses to the SDRAM are burst ori-
ented; accesses start at a selected location and continue for a
programmed number of locations in a programmed sequence. Ac-
cesses begin with the registration of an ACTIVE command which
is then 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, A0-A11 select the row). The address bits ( x16: A0-A7)
registered 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 initial-
ized. The following sections provide detailed information cover-
ing device initialization, register de nition, command descrip-
tions and device operation.
Initalization
SDRAMs must be powered up and initialized in a pre-
de ned manner . Operational procedures other than those speci ed
may result in unde ned operation. Once power is applied to VDD
and VDDQ (simultaneously) and the clock is stable, the SDRAM
requires a 100μs delay prior to applying an executable command.
Starting at some point during this 100μs period and continuing
at least through the end of this period, COMMAND INHIBIT or
NOP commands should be applied.
Once the 100μs delay has been satis ed with at least one
COMMAND INHIBIT or NOP command having been applied,
a PRECHARGE command should be applied. All banks must be
precharged, thereby placing the device in the all banks idle state.
Once in the idle state, two AUTO REFRESH cycles must
be performed. After the AUTO REFRESH cycles are complete,
the SDRAM is ready for Mode Register programming. Because
the Mode Register will power up in an unknown state, it should
be loaded prior to applying any operational command.
REGISTER DEFINITION
Mode Register
The Mode Register is used to de ne the speci c mode of
operation of the SDRAM. This de nition includes the selection of
a burst length, a burst type, a CAS latency , an operating mode and
a write burst mode, as shown in Figure 1. The Mode Register is
programmed via the LOAD MODE REGISTER command and
will retain the stored information until it is programmed again or
the device loses power.
Mode register bits M0-M2 specify the burst length, M3
speci es the type of burst (sequential or interleaved), M4-M6
specify the CAS latency, M7 and M8 specify the operating mode,
M9 speci es the WRITE burst mode, and M10 and M11 are re-
served for future use.
The Mode Register must be loaded when all banks are
idle, and the controller must wait the speci ed time before initiat-
ing the subsequent operation. V iolating either of these requirements
will result in unspeci ed operation.
Burst Length
Read and write accesses to the SDRAM are burst ori-
ented, with the burst length being programmable, as shown in
Figure 1. The burst length determines the maximum number of
column locations that can be accessed for a given READ or WRITE
command. Burst lengths of 1, 2, 4, or 8 locations are available for
both the sequential and the interleaved burst types, and a full-page
burst is available for the sequential type. The full-page burst is
used in conjunction with the BURST TERMINATE command to
generate arbitrary burst lengths.
Reserved states should not be used, as unknown opera-
tion or incompatibility with future 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 will wrap within the block if a boundary is reached. The
block is uniquely selected by A1-A7 (x16) when the burst length is
set to two; A2-A7 (x16) when the burst length is set to four; and by
A3-A7 (x16) when the burst length is set to eight. The remaining
(least signi cant) address bit(s) is (are) used to select the starting
location within the block. Full-page bursts wrap within the page
if the boundary is reached.

BURST TYPE
Accesses within a given burst may 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, as
shown in Table 1.
NOTE:
1. For full-page accesses: y = 256 (x16).
2. For a burst length of two, A1-A7 (x16)
select the block-of-two burst; A0 selects
the starting column within the block.
3. For a burst length of four, A2-A7 (x16)
select the block-of-four burst; A0-A1 se-
lect the starting column within the block.
4. For a burst length of eight, A3-A7 (x16)
select the clock-of-eight burst; A0-A2 se-
lect the starting column within the block.
5. For a full-page burst, the full row is se-
lected and A0-A7 (x16) select the starting
column.
6. Whenever a boundary of the block is
reached within a given sequence above,
the following access wraps within the
block.
7. For a burst length of one, A0-A7 (x16)
select the unique column to be accessed,
and Mode Register bit M3 is ignored.

CAS Latency
The CAS latency is the delay , in clock cycles, between
the registration of a READ command and the availability of
the rst piece of 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 DQs will 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 will be 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 DQs will start driving after T1 and the data will be valid by
T2, as shown in Figure 2. T able 2 below indicates the operating
frequencies at which each CAS latency setting can be used.
Reserved states should not be used as unknown opera-
tion or incompatibility with future versions may result.
Operating Mode
The normal operating mode is selected by setting
M7and M8 to zero; the other combinations of values for M7
and M8 are reserved for future use and/or test modes. The
programmed burst length applies to both READ and WRITE
bursts.
Test modes and 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 M0-
M2 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.

COMMAND INHIBIT
The COMMAND INHIBIT function prevents new
commands from being executed by the SDRAM, regardless of
whether the CLK signal is enabled. The SDRAM is ef fectively
deselected. Operations already in progress are not affected.
NO OPERATION (NOP)
The NO OPERATION (NOP) command is used to
perform a NOP to an SDRAM which is selected (CS\ is LOW).
This prevents unwanted commands from being registered dur-
ing idle or wait states. Operations already in progress are not
affected.
LOAD MODE REGISTER
The Mode Register is loaded via inputs A0-A11. See
Mode Register heading in the Register De nition section. The
LOAD MODE REGISTER command can only be issued when
all banks are idle, and a subsequent executable command cannot
be issued until tMRD is met.
ACTIVE
The ACTIVE command is used to open (or 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
on inputs A0-A11 selects the row. This row remains active (or
open) for accesses until a PRECHARGE command is issued
to that bank. A PRECHARGE command must be issued before
opening a different row in the same bank.
READ
The READ command is used to initiate a burst read
access to an active row. The value on the BA0, BA1 inputs
selects the bank, and the address provided on inputs A0-A7
(x16) selects the starting column location. The value on input
A10 determines whether or not AUTO PRECHARGE is used.
If AUTO PRECHARGE is selected, the row being accessed
will be precharged at the end of the READ burst; if AUTO
PRECHARGE is not selected, the row will remain open for
subsequent accesses. Read data appears on the DQs subject to
the logic level on the DQM inputs two clocks earlier . If a given
DQM signal was registered HIGH, the corresponding DQs will
be High-Z two clocks later; if the DQM signal was registered
LOW, the DQs will provide valid data.
WRITE
The WRITE command is used to initiate a burst write
access to an active row. The value on the BA0, BA1 inputs
selects the bank, and the address provided on inputs A0-A7
(x16) selects the starting column location. The value on input
A10 determines whether or not AUTO PRECHARGE is used.
If AUTO PRECHARGE is selected, the row being accessed
will be precharged at the end of the WRITE burst; if AUTO
PRECHARGE is not selected, the row will remain open for
subsequent accesses. Input data appearing on the DQs is writ-
ten to the memory array subject to the DQM input logic level
appearing coincident with the data. If a given DQM signal
is registered LOW, the corresponding data will be written
to memory; if the DQM signal is registered HIGH, the cor-
responding data inputs will be ignored, and a WRITE will not
be executed to that byte/column location.
PRECHARGE
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 speci ed
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 to be precharged, inputs
BA0, BA1 select the bank. Otherwise BA0, BA1 are treated
as “Don’t Care.” Once a bank has been prechar ged, 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 which performs the
same individual-bank PRECHARGE function described above,
without requiring an explicit command. This is accomplished
by using A10 to enable AUTO PRECHARGE in conjunction
with a speci c READ or WRITE command. A precharge of
the bank/row that is addressed with the READ or WRITE com-
mand is automatically performed upon completion of the READ
or WRITE burst, except in the full-page burst mode, where
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. The user must
not issue another command to the same bank until the precharge
time (tRP) is completed. This is determined as if an explicit
PRECHARGE command was issued at the earliest possible
time, as described for each burst type in the Operation section
of this data sheet.

AUTO REFRESH
AUTO REFRESH is used during normal operation
of the SDRAM and is analagous to CAS\-BEFORE-RAS\
(CBR) REFRESH in conventional DRAMs. This command
is non- persistent, so it must be issued each time a refresh is
required.
The addressing is generated by the internal refresh
controller. This makes the address bits “Don’t Care” during
an AUTO REFRESH command. The 64Mb SDRAM requires
4,096 AUTO REFRESH cycles every 64ms *(tREF), regardless
of width option. Providing a distributed AUTO REFRESH
command every 15.625μs/3.906μs will meet the refresh re-
quirement and ensure that each row is refreshed. Alternatively ,
4,096 AUT O REFRESH commands can be issued in a burst at
the minimum cycle rate (tRC), once every 64ms/ 16ms (24ms
for XT).
SELF REFRESH (IT & ET ONLY)
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).
Once the SELF REFRESH command is registered,
all the inputs to the SDRAM become “Don’t Care,” with the
exception of CKE, which must remain LOW.
Once self refresh mode is engaged, the SDRAM
provides its own internal clocking, causing it to perform its
own AUTO REFRESH cycles. The SDRAM must remain in
self refresh mode for a minimum period equal to tRAS and may
remain in self refresh mode for an inde nite period beyond
that.
The procedure for exiting self refresh requires a se-
quence of commands. First, CLK must be stable prior to CKE
going back HIGH. Once 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.
If during normal operation AUT O REFRESH cycles
are issued in bursts (as opposed to being evenly distributed),
a burst of 4,096 AUTO REFRESH cycles should be completed
just prior to entering and just after exiting the self refresh
mode.
The self refresh option is not available for the -55° to
+125° screening option.

BURST TERMINATE
The BURST TERMINATE command is used to trun-
cate either xed-length or full-page bursts. The most recently
registered READ or WRITE command prior to the BURST
TERMINATE command will be truncated, as shown in the
Operation section of this data sheet.

OPERATION
BANK/ROW ACTIVATION
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 opening a row (issuing an ACTIVE command), a
READ or WRITE command may be issued to that row, subject to
the tRCD speci cation. 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 speci -
cation of 30ns with a 90 MHz clock (1 1.11ns period) results in 2.7
clocks, rounded to 3. This is re ected in Figure 4, which covers
any case where 2 < tRCD (MIN)/ tCK 3. (The same procedure is
used to convert other speci cation 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 “closed” (precharged). The minimum time interval between
successive ACTIVE commands to the same bank is de ned by
tRC.
A subsequent ACTIVE command to another bank can
be issued while the rst bank is being accessed, which results in a
reduction of total row-access overhead. The minimum time inter -
val between successive ACTIVE commands to dif ferent banks is
de ned by tRRD.

READs
READ bursts are initiated with a READ command, as shown in
Figure 5.
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 AUT O PRECHARGE
is enabled, the row being accessed is precharged at the completion
of the burst. For the generic READ commands used in the follow-
ing illustrations, AUTO PRECHARGE is disabled.
During READ bursts, the valid data-out element from
the starting column address will be available following the CAS
latency after the READ command. Each subsequent data-out ele-
ment will be valid by the next positive clock edge. Figure 6 shows
general timing for each possible CAS latency setting.
Upon completion of a burst, assuming no other com-
mands have been initiated, the DQs will go High-Z. A full-page
burst will continue until terminated. (At the end of the page, it will
wrap to column 0 and continue.)
Data from any READ burst may be truncated with a
subsequent READ command, and data from a xed-length READ
burst may be immediately followed by data from a READ com-
mand. In either case, a continuous ow of data can be maintained.
The rst data element from the new burst follows either the last
element of a completed burst or the last desired data element of
alonger burst which is being truncated. The new READ command
should be issued x cycles before the clock edge at which the last
desired data element is valid, where x equals the CAS latency
minus one.

This is shown in Figure 7 for CAS latencies of two and three;
data element n + 3 is either the last of a burst of four or the last
desired of a longer burst. The 64Mb SDRAM uses a pipelined
architecture and therefore does not require the 2n rule associated
with a prefetch architecture. A READ command can be initiated
on any clock cycle following a previous READ command. Full-
speed random read accesses can be performed to the same bank, as
shown in Figure 8, or each subsequent READ may be performed
to a different bank.

Data from any READ burst may be truncated with a subsequent
WRITE command, and data from a xed-length READ burst
may be immediately followed by data from a WRITE command
(subject to bus turnaround limitations). The WRITE burst may
be initiated on the clock edge immediately following the last (or
last desired) data element from the READ burst, provided that
I/O contention can be avoided. In a given system design, there
may be a possibility that the device driving the input data will go
Low-Z before the SDRAM DQs go High-Z. In this case, at least
a single-cycle delay should occur between the last read data and
the WRITE command. The DQM input is used to avoid I/O con-
tention, as shown in Figures 9 and 10. The DQM signal must be
asserted (HIGH) at least two clocks prior to the WRITE command
(DQM latency is two clocks for output buffers) to suppress data-
out from the READ. Once the WRITE command is registered, the
DQs will go High-Z (or remain High-Z), regardless of the state of
the DQM signal. 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 9 shows the
case where the clock frequency allows for bus contention to be
avoided without adding a NOP cycle, and Figure 10 shows the
case where the additional NOP is needed.

A xed-length READ burst may be followed by, or
truncated with, a PRECHARGE command to the same bank
(provided that AUTO PRECHARGE was not activated), and a
full-page burst maybe truncated with a PRECHARGE command
to the same bank. The PRECHARGE command should be issued x
cycles before the clock edge at which the last desired data element
is valid, where x equals the CAS latency minus one. This is shown
in Figure 1 1 for each possible CAS latency; data element n + 3 is
either the last of a burst of four or the last desired of a longer burst.
Following the PRECHARGE command, a subsequent 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 xed-length burst being executed to
completion, a PRECHARGE command issued at the optimum
time (as described above) provides the same operation that would
result from the same xed-length burst

with AUTO PRECHARGE. The disadvantage 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 xed-length or full-page bursts.
Full-page READ bursts can be truncated with the BURST
TERMINATE command, and xed-length READ bursts may be
truncated with a BURST TERMINATE command, provided that
AUTO PRECHARGE was not activated. The BURST TERMI-
NATE command should be issued x cycles before the clock
edge at which the last desired data element is valid, where x equals
the CAS latency minus one. This is shown in Figure 12 for each
possible CAS latency; data element n + 3 is the last desired data

WRITEs
WRITE bursts are initiated with a WRITE command, as
shown in Figure 13.
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
enabled, the row being accessed is precharged at the completion of
the burst. For the generic WRITE commands used in the following
illustrations, AUTO PRECHARGE is disabled.
During WRITE bursts, the rst valid data-in element will
be registered coincident with the WRITE command. Subsequent
data elements will be registered on each successive positive clock
edge. Upon completion of a xed-length burst, assuming no other
commands have been initiated, the DQs will remain High-Z and
any additional input data will be ignored (see Figure 14). A full-
page burst will continue until terminated. (At the end of the page,
it will wrap to column 0 and continue.)
Data for any WRITE burst may be truncated with a subse-
quent WRITE command, and data for a xed-length WRITE burst
may be immediately followed by data for a WRITE command. The
new WRITE command can be issued on any clock following the
previous WRITE command, and the data provided coincident with
the new command applies to the new command. An example is
shown in Figure 15. Data n + 1 is either the last of a burst of two
or the last desired of a longer burst. The 64Mb SDRAM uses a
pipelined architecture and therefore does not require the 2n rule
associated 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 16, or each
subsequent WRITE may be performed to a different bank.

Data for any WRITE burst may be truncated with a sub-
sequent READ command, and data for a xed-length WRITE burst
may be immediately followed by a subsequent READ command.
Once the READ command is registered, the data inputs will be
ignored, and WRITEs will not be executed. An example is shown
in Figure 17. Data n+1 is either the last of a burst of two or the
last desired of a longer burst.
Data for a xed-length WRITE burst may be followed
by , or truncated with, a PRECHARGE command to the same bank
(provided that AUTO PRECHARGE was not activated), and a
full-page WRITE burst may 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 requires a
tWR of at least one clock plus time (8ns), regardless of frequency.
In addition, when truncating a WRITE burst, 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. An
example is shown in Figure 18. Data n + 1 is either the last of a
burst of two or the last desired of a longer burst. Following the
PRECHARGE command, a subsequent command to the same
bank cannot be issued until tRP is met.
In the case of a xed-length burst being executed to
completion, a PRECHARGE command issued at the optimum time
(as described above) provides the same operation that would result
from the same xed-length burst with AUTO PRECHARGE. The
disadvantage 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 xed-length or full-page
bursts.
NOTE: DQM coulc remain LOW in this example if the WRITE burst is a fi xed length
of 2.

Fixed-length or full-page WRITE bursts can be truncated
with the BURST TERMINATE command. When truncating a
WRITE burst, the input data applied coincident with the BURST
TERMINATE command will be ignored. The last data written
(provided that DQM is LOW at that time) will be the input data
applied one clock previous to the BURST TERMINATE command.
This is shown in Figure 19, where data n is the last desired data
element of a longer burst.
PRECHARGE
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 some speci-
ed 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 to be precharged, inputs
BA0, BA1 select the bank. When all banks are to be prechar ged,
inputs BA0, BA1 are treated as “Don’t Care.” Once 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.
POWER-DOWN
Power-down occurs if CKE is registered LOW coincident
with a NOP or COMMAND INHIBIT 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 either 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 may not remain in the power-down
state longer than the refresh period (64ms/16ms) since no refresh
operations are performed in this mode.
The power-down state is exited by registering a NOP or
COMMAND INHIBIT and CKE HIGH at the desired clock edge
(meeting tCKS).

CLOCK SUSPEND
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 com-
mand or data present on the input pins at the time of a suspended
internal clock edge is ignored; any data present on the DQ pins
remains driven; and burst counters are not incremented, as long
as the clock is suspended. (See examples in Figures 22 and 23.)
Clock suspend mode is exited by registering CKE HIGH;
the internal clock and related operation will resume on the subse-
quent positive clock edge.
BURST READ/SINGLE WRITE
The burst read/single write mode is entered by pro-
gramming the write burst mode bit (M9) in the Mode Register
to a logic 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 sequence, just as
in the normal mode of operation (M9=0).
NOTE: For this example, CAS latency = 2, burst length = 4 or greater, and DQM is LOW.

CONCURRENT AUTO PRECHARGE
An access command (READ or WRITE) to another bank
while an access command with AUTO PRECHARGE enabled is
executing is not allowed by SDRAMs, unless the SDRAM sup-
ports CONCURRENT AUTO PRECHARGE. Micross SDRAMs
support CONCURRENT AUTO PRECHARGE. Four cases where
CONCURRENT AUTO PRECHARGE occurs are de ned be-
low.
READ with AUTO PRECHARGE
1. Interrupted by a READ (with or without AUTO PRE
CHARGE): A READ to bank m will interrupt a READ
on bank n, CAS latency later. The PRECHARGE to bank n
will begin when the READ to bank m is registered
(Figure 24).
2. 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 prir to the WRITE command to prevent bus
contention. The PRECHARGE to bank n will begin when
the WRITE to bank m is registered (Figure 25).

WRITE with AUTO PRECHARGE
3. 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 CAS latency later. The PRECHARGE to bank
will begin after tWR is met, where tWR begins when the
READ to bank m is registered. The last valid WRITE to
bank n will be data-in registered one clock prior to the
READ to bank m (Figure 26).
4 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 registered. The last valid data
WRITE to bank n will be data registered one clock prior
to a WRITE to bank 1 (Figure 27).

2. This table is bank-speci c, except where noted; i.e., the current state is for a speci c bank and the commands shown are those allowed to be
issued to that bank when in that state. Exceptions are covered in the notes below.
3. Current state de nitions:
Idle: The bank has been precharged, and tRP has been met.
Row Active: A row in the bank has been activated, and tRCD has been met. No data bursts/accesses and no register accesses are in
progress.
Read: A READ burst has been initiated, with AUTO PRECHARGE disabled, and has not yet terminated or been terminated.
Write: A WRITE burst has been initiated, with AUTO PRECHARGE disabled, and has not yet terminated or been terminated.
4. The following states must not be interrupted by a command issued to the same bank. COMMAND INHIBIT or NOP commands, or allow-
able commands to the other bank should be issued on any clock edge occurring during these states. Allowable commands to the other bank
are determined by its current state and Truth Table 3, and according to Truth Table 4.
Precharging: Starts with registration of a PRECHARGE command and ends when tRP is met. Once tRP is met, the bank
will be in the idle state.
Row Activating: Starts with registration of an ACTIVE command and ends when tRCD is met. Once tRCD is met, the bank
will be in the row active state.
Read w/Auto-
Precharge Enabled: Starts with registration of a READ command with AUTO PRECHARGE enabled and ends when tRP has
been met. Once tRP is met, the bank will be in the idle state.
Write w/Auto-
Precharge Enabled: Starts with registration of a WRITE command with AUTO PRECHARGE enabled and ends when tRP has
been met. Once tRP is met, the bank will be in the idle state.

NOTE (continued):
5. The following states must not be interrupted by any executable command; COMMAND INHIBIT or NOP commands must be applied
on each positive clock edge during these states.
Refreshing: Starts with registration of an AUTO REFRESH command and ends when tRC is met.
Once tRC is met, the SDRAM will be in the all banks idle state.
Accessing Mode
Register: Starts with registration of a LOAD MODE REGISTER command and ends when tMRD
has been met. Once tMRD is met, the SDRAM will be in the all banks idle state.
Precharging All: Starts with registration of a PRECHARGE ALL command and ends when tRP is met.
Once tRP is met, all banks will be in the idle state.
6. All states and sequences not shown are illegal or reserved.
7. Not bank-speci c; requires that all banks are idle.
8. May or may not be bank-speci c; if all banks are to be precharged, all must be in a valid state for precharging.
9. Not bank-speci c; BURST TERMINATE affects the most recent READ or WRITE burst, regardless of bank..
10. READs or WRITEs listed in the Command (Action) column include READs or WRITEs with AUTO PRECHARGE enabled and
READs or WRITEs with AUTO PRECHARGE disabled.
11. Does not affect the state of the bank and acts as a NOP to that bank.

allowed to be issued to bank m (assuming that bank m is in such a state that the given command is allowable). Exceptions are covered in
the notes below.
3. Current state de nitions:
Idle: The bank has been precharged, and tRP has been met.
Row Active: A row in the bank has been activated, and tRCD has been met. No data bursts/ accesses and no register accesses
are in progress.
Read: A READ burst has been initiated, with AUTO PRECHARGE disabled, and has not yet terminated or been termi-
nated.
Write: A WRITE burst has been initiated, with AUTO PRECHARGE disabled, and has not yet terminated or been
terminated.
Read w/Auto-

NOTE (continued):
8. CONCURRENT AUTO PRECHARGE: Bank n will initiate the AUTO PRECHARGE command when its burst has been interrupted
by bank m’s burst.
9. Burst in bank n continues as initiated.
10. For a READ without AUTO PRECHARGE interrupted by a READ (with or without AUTO PRECHARGE), the READ to bank m
will interrupt the READ on bank n, CAS latency later (Figure 7).
11. For a READ without AUTO PRECHARGE interrupted by a WRITE (with or without AUTO PRECHARGE), the WRITE to bank m
will interrupt the READ on bank n when registered (Figures 9 and 10). DQM should be used one clock prior to the WRITE command
to prevent bus contention.
12. For a WRITE without AUTO PRECHARGE interrupted by a READ (with or without AUTO PRECHARGE), the READ to bank m
will interrupt the WRITE on bank n when registered (Figure 17), with the data-out appearing CAS latency later. The last valid WRITE
to bank n will be data-in registered one clock prior to the READ to bank m.
13. For a WRITE without AUTO PRECHARGE interrupted by a WRITE (with or without AUTO PRECHARGE), the WRITE to bank m
will interrupt the WRITE on bank n when registered (Figure 15). The last valid WRITE to bank n will be data-in registered one clock
prior to the READ to bank m.
14. For a READ with AUTO PRECHARGE interrupted by a READ (with or without AUTO PRECHARGE), the READ to bank m will
interrupt the READ on bank n, CAS latency later. The PRECHARGE to bank n will begin when the READ to bank m is registered
(Figure 24).
15. For a READ with AUTO PRECHARGE interrupted by a WRITE (with or without AUTO PRECHARGE), the WRITE to bank m will
interrupt the READ on bank n when registered. DQM should be used two clocks prior to the WRITE command to prevent bus conten-
tion. The PRECHARGE to bank n will begin when the WRITE to bank m is registered (Figure 25).
16. For a WRITE with AUTO PRECHARGE interrupted by a READ (with or without AUTO PRECHARGE), the READ to bank m will
interrupt the WRITE on bank n when registered, with the data-out appearing CAS latency later. The PRECHARGE to bank n will
begin after tWR is met, where tWR begins when the READ to bank m is registered. The last valid WRITE to bank n will be data-in
registered one clock prior to the READ to bank m (Figure 26).
17. For a WRITE with AUTO PRECHARGE interrupted by a WRITE (with or without AUTO PRECHARGE), the WRITE to bank m
will interrupt the 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 registered. The last valid WRITE to bank n will be data registered one clock prior to the WRITE to bank m
(Figure 27).

must be powered up simultaneously. VSS and VSSQ
must be at same potential.) The two AUTO REFRESH
command wake-ups should be repeated any time the tREF
refresh requirement is exceeded.
7. AC characteristics assume tT = 1ns.
8. In addition to meeting the transition rate speci cation,
the clock and CKE must transit between VIH and VIL (or
between VIL and VIH) in a monotonic manner.
9. Outputs measured at 1.5V with equivalent load:
10. tHZ de nes the time at which the output achieves the
open circuit condition; it is not a reference to VOH or
VOL. The last valid data element will meet tOH before
going High-Z.
11. AC timing and ICC tests have VIL = 0V and VIH = 3V,
with timing referenced to 1.5V crossover point.
12. Other input signals are allowed to transition no more
than once in any 30ns period (20ns on -8) and are other-
wise at valid VIH or VIL levels.
13. IDD speci cations are tested after the device is properly
initialized.
14. Timing actually speci ed by tCKS; clock(s) speci ed as a
reference only at minimum cycle rate.
15. Timing actually speci ed by tWR plus tRP; clock(s) speci-
ed as a reference only at minimum cycle rate.
16. Timing actually speci ed by tWR.
17. Required clocks are speci ed by JEDEC functionality
and are not dependent on any timing parameter.
18. The ICC current will decrease as the CAS latency is
reduced. This is due to the fact that the maximum cycle
rate is slower as the CAS latency is reduced.
19. Address transitions average one transition every 30ns
(20ns on -8).
20. CLK must be toggled a minimum of two times during
this period.
21. Based on tCK = 100 MHz for -8 and 66 MHz for -10.
22. These ve parameters vary between speed grades and
de ne the differences between the -8 SDRAM speeds:
-8.
23. VIH overshoot: VIH (MAX) = VDDQ + 2V for a pulse
width 10ns, and the pulse width cannot be greater than
one third of the cycle rate. VIL undershoot: VIL (MIN) =
-2V for a pulse width 10ns, and the pulse width cannot
be greater than one third of the cycle rate.
24. The clock frequency must remain constant during access
or precharge states (READ, WRITE, including tWR, and
PRECHARGE commands). CKE may be used to reduce
the data rate.
25. Auto precharge mode only. The precharge timing budget
( tRP) begins 8ns after the rst clock delay, after the last
WRITE is executed.
26. Precharge mode only.
27. JEDEC and PC100 specify three clocks.
