Burst Length and Sequence:
Refresh Mode
SDRAM has two refresh modes, Auto Refresh
and Self Refresh. Auto Refresh is similar to the CAS
-before-RAS refresh of conventional DRAMs. All of
banks must be precharged before applying any re-
fresh mode. An on-chip address counter increments
the word and the bank addresses and no bank infor-
mation is required for both refresh modes.
The chip enters the Auto Refresh mode, when
RAS and CAS are held low and CKE and WE are
held high at a clock timing. The mode restores word
line after the refresh and no external precharge
command is necessary. A minimum tRC time is re-
quired between two automatic refreshes in a burst
refresh mode. The same rule applies to any access
command after the automatic refresh operation.
The chip has an on-chip timer and the Self Re-
fresh mode is available. It enters the mode when
RAS, CAS, and CKE are low and WE is high at a
clock timing. All of external control signals including
the clock are disabled. Returning CKE to high en-
ables the clock and initiates the refresh exit opera-
tion. After the exit command, at least one tRC delay
is required prior to any access command.
