SDC Description of Operation
The following sections describe the operation of the SDC.
Definition of SDRAM Architecture Terms
The following are definitions of SDRAM architecture terms used in the
remainder of this chapter.
Refresh
Because the information is stored in a small capacitance suffering on leak-
age effects, the SDRAM cell needs to be refreshed periodically with the
refresh command.
Row Activation
SDRAM accesses are multiplexed, which means any first access will open a
row/page before the column access is performed. It stores the row in a
“row cache” called row activation.
Column Read/Write
The row’s columns represent a page, which can be accessed with successive
read or write commands without needing to activate another row. This is
called column access and performs transfers from the “row cache.”
