EXTENDED MODE REGISTER SET (EMRS)
The extended mode register stores for selecting PASR;DS. The extended mode register set must be done before any active
command after the power up sequence. T he extended mode register is written by asserting low on CS,RAS,CAS,WE and high on
BA1,low on BA0(The SDRAM should be in all bank precharge with CKE already high prior to writing into the extended more
register). The state of address pins
A0~An in the same cycle as CS,RAS,CAS,WE going low is written in the extended mode register. Refer to the table for specific
codes.
The extended mode re gister can be change d by using the same command and cl ock cycle requirements during opera tions as long
as all banks are in the idle state. The default value extended mode register is defined as half driving strength and all banks
refreshed.

DEVICE OPERATIONS
CLOCK (CLK)
The clock input is used as the reference for all SDRAM
operations. 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 valid state (low or high)
for the duration of setup and hold time around positive edge
of the clock for proper functionality 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 same as other inputs), the internal clock 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 synchronous 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.
BANK ADDRESSES (BA0~BA1)
This SDRAM is organized as four independent banks of
2,097,152 words x 16 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
banks addressed BA0~BA1 are latched at bank activ e, read,
write, mode register set and precharge operations.
ADDRESS INPUTS (A0~A11)
The 21 address bits are required to decode the 2,097,152
word locations are multiplexed into 12 address input pins
(A0~A11). The 12 row addresses are latched along with
RAS and BA0~BA 1 during bank active command. The 9 bit
column addresses are latched along with CAS , WE and
BA0~BA1 during read or with command.
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 sing le clock cycle like bank activate, bu rst
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.
MODE REGISTER SET (MRS)
The mode register stores the data for controlling the
various operating 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 alrea dy high prior to writing
the mode register). The state of address pins A0~A11
and BA0~BA1 in the same cycle as CS , RAS , CAS
and WE going low is the data written in the mode
register. 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 op eratio n as long as all bank s
are in the idle state. The mode register is divided into
various fields into depending on functionality. The burst
length field uses A0~A2, burst type uses A3, CAS
latency (read latency from column address) use A4~A6,
test mode use A7~A8, vendor specific options use A9,
A10~A11 and BA1~BA0. A7~A8, A10/AP~A11 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.

DEVICE OPERATIONS (Continued)
BANK ACTIVATE
The bank activate command is used to select a random r ow
in an idle bank. By asserting low on RAS and CS with
desired row and bank addres s, a row access is initiated. The
read or write operation can occur after a time delay of tRCD
(min) from the time of bank activation. tRCD is the internal
timing parameter of SDRAM, therefore it is dependent on
operating clock frequency. The minimum 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 th en rounding of 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 requirin g some time
for power supplies to recover before another bank can be
sensed reliably. tRRD (min) s peci fies the mini mu m ti me r equired
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 b y
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) and tRAS
(max) can be calculated similar to tRCD specification.
BURST READ
The burst read command is used to access burst of data on
consecutive clock cycles from an active row in an active
bank. The burst read command is issued by asserting low on
CS and RAS 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 command 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 register. The output goes
into high-impedance at the end of burst, unless a new burst
read was initiated to keep th e data output gapless. T he 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.
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 column address, a write burst is
initiated. The data inputs are provided 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. T he writing can be comp lete by iss uing 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 t RDL after the last data input to
be written into the active row. See DQM OPERATION
also.
DQM OPERATION
The DQM is used mask input and output operations. It
works similar to OE during 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 re ad cycle and
occurs in the same cycle during write cycle. DQM
operation is synchronous with the clock. The DQM
signal is important during burst interrupts of write with
read or precharge in the SDR AM. 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 required. Please refer to DQM
timing diagram also.
PRECHARGE
The precharge is performed on an active bank by
asserting low on clock cycles required between bank
activate and clock cycles required between bank
activate and CS , RAS , WE and A10/AP with valid
BA0~BA1 of the bank to be procharged. The precharge
command can be asserted anytime after tRAS (min) is
satisfy from the bank active command in the desired
bank. tRP is defined as the minimum number of clock
cycles required to complete ro w pr echarge is calculated
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.

DEVICE OPERATIONS (Continued)
AUTO PRECHARGE
The precharge operation can also be performed by using
auto precharge. The SDRAM internally generates the timing
to satisfy tRAS (min) and “tRP” for the programmed burst length
and CAS latency. T he auto precharge comm and is issued at
the same time as burst write by asserting high on A10/AP,
the bank is precharge command is asserted. Once auto
precharge command is given, no new commands are
possible to that particular bank until the bank achieves idle
state.
BOTH BANKS PRECHARGE
A11 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, performs precharge on all banks. At the
end of tRP after performing precharge all, all banks are in idl e
state.
AUTO REFRESH
The storage cells of 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 tRFC (min ). The minimum number of clock cycles
required can be calculated by driving tRFC 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. The auto refresh is the
preferred refresh mode when the SDRAM is being used for
normal data transactions. The auto refresh cycle can be
performed once in 15.6us.
SELF REFRESH
The self refresh is another ref resh 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 is 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
matters, all the other inputs including clock are ignored
to remain in the refresh.
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 minimum time of tRFC before the SDRAM
reaches idle state to begin normal operation. 4K cycles
of burst auto refresh is required immediately before self
refresh entry and immediately after self refresh exit.

COMMANDS
Mode register set command
(CS,RAS ,CAS ,WE , BA1, BA0 = Low)
The DRAM has a mode register that defines how the device operates. In this
command, A0 through A11, BA0 and BA1 ar e the data input pins. After power on, the
mode register set command must be executed to initialize the device.
The mode register can be set only when all banks are in idle state. During 2CLK
(tMRD) following this command, the DRAM cannot accept any other commands.
Extended Mode register set command
(CS ,RAS , CAS, WE , BA0 = Low ; BA1= High)
The DRAM has a extended mode register that defines how to set PASR, DS.
Activate command
(CS ,RAS = Low,CAS , WE = High)
The DRAM has four banks, each with 4,096 rows.
This command activates the bank selected by BA1 and BA0 (BS) and a row
address selected by A0 throu gh A11.
This command corresponds to a conventional DRAM’s RAS falling.

Precharge command
(CS ,RAS , WE = Low, CAS = High )
This command begins pr echarge operation of the bank s elected by BA1 and BA0
(BS). When A10 is High, all banks are precharged, regardless of BA1 and BA0.
When A10 is Low, only the bank selected by BA1 and BA0 is precharged.
After this command, the DRAM can’t accept the activate command to the
precharging bank during tRP (precharge to activate command period).
This command corresponds to a conventional DRAM’s RAS rising.
Write command
(CS , CAS, WE = Low,RAS = High)
If the mode register is in the burst write mode, this command sets the burst start
address given by the column address to begin the burst write operation. The first
write data in burst can be input with this command with subsequent data on following
clocks.
Read command
(CS ,CAS = Low,RAS , WE = High)
Read data is available after CAS latency requirements have been met.
This command sets the burst start address given by the column address.

CBR (auto) refresh command
(CS ,RAS ,CAS = Low, WE , CKE = High)
This command is a request to begin the CBR refresh operation. The refresh address is
generated internally.
Before executing CBR refresh, all banks must be precharged.
After this cycle, all banks will be in the idle (precharged) state and ready for a row
activate command.
During tRC period (from refresh command to refresh or activate command), the DRAM
cannot accept any other command.
Self refresh entry command
(CS ,RAS ,CAS , CKE = Low ,WE = High)
After the command execution, self refresh operation continues while CKE remains low.
When CKE goes to high, the DRAM exits the self refresh mode.
During self refresh mode, refresh interval and refresh operation are perfo rmed internally,
so there is no need for external contro l.
Before executing self refresh, all banks must be precharged.
Burst stop command
(CS , WE = Low,RAS ,CAS = High)
This command terminates the current burst operation.
Burst stop is valid at every burst length.
