AT697F ADVANCE INFORMATION

7703C–AERO–6/09

SDRAM

The synchronous dynamic RAM interface can manage up to two SDRAM banks. The control of

the SDRAM memory accesses uses a standard set of pin, including chip selects (SDCS*x), write

enable (SDWE*), data masks (SDDQM*x) and clock lines.

The bank size of the two SDRAM banks can be configured by setting the value of the

MCFG2

SDRBS. The bank size can be programmed in binary step from 4 Mbytes to 512

Mbytes.

The controller supports 64M, 256M and 512M devices with 8 to 12 column-address bits, up to 13

row-address bits, and 4 banks. Only 32-bit data bus width is supported for SDRAM banks.

Address Mapping

The start address for the SDRAM banks depends upon the SRAM use in the application. If the

the SRAM disable bit MCFG2 SI and the SDRAM enable bit MCFG2 SE are set logical one,

the SDRAM start address is 0x40000000. If the the SRAM disable bit MCFG2 SI is set logical

zero and the SDRAM enable bit MCFG2

SE is set logical one, the SDRAM start address is

0x60000000. If MCFG2 SE if set logical zero, no SDRAM can be used.

The address bus of the SDRAMs shall be connected to A[14:2], the bank address to A[16:15].

Devices with less than 13 address pins should only use the less significant bits of A[14:2].

SDRAM Timing

Parameters

To provide optimum access cycles for different SDRAM devices some SDRAM parameters can

be programmed through MCFG2 register. The programmable SDRAM parameters are the fol-

SDRAM Commands

The SDRAM controller can issue three SDRAM commands. Commands to be executed are pro-

grammed through the MCFG2

SDRCMD. When this field is writen with a non zero value, a

SDRAM command is issued :

•

if set to ‘01’, Precharge command is sent,

•

if set to ‘10’, Auto-Refresh command is sent,

•

if set to ‘11’, Load Mode Reg (LMR) is sent.

When the LMR command is issued, the MCFG2

SDRCAS delay programmed is used.

MCFG2 SDRCMD is cleared after a command is executed. When changing the value of the

CAS delay, a LOAD-MODE-REGISTER command should be generated at the same time.

The SDRAM controller also provides a refresh command. It can be enabled by setting a logical

one into MCFG2 SDRREF.
