External Bus Interface Unit
Row Precharge
If the next access is in a different row, the current row is closed before
another is opened. The current “row cache” is written back to the row.
This is called row precharge.
Internal Bank
There are up to 4 internal memory banks on a given SDRAM. Each of
these banks can be accessed with the bank select lines
BA[1:0]
. The bank
address can be thought of as part of the row address.
External Bank
This is the address region where the SDC address the SDRAM.
L
Do not confuse the internal banks, which are internal to the
SDRAM and are selected with the
BA[1:0]
pins with the external
bank that is enabled by the
CS
pin.
Memory Size
Since the 2D memory is based on rows and columns, the size is:
mem size =
(# rows) x (# columns) x (# internal banks) x I/O (Mbit)
Burst Length
The burst length determines the number of words that the SDRAM device
stores or delivers after detecting a single write or read command followed
by a NOP (no operation) command, respectively (
Number of NOPs =
burst length - 1
). Burst lengths of full page, 8, 4, 2, and 1 (no burst) are
available. The burst length is selected by writing the
BL
bits in the
SDRAM’s mode register during the SDRAM powerup sequence.
