REFRESH CONTROL UNIT
Figure 7-2. Refresh Control Unit Operation Flow Chart
The nine-bit refresh clock counter does not wait until the BIU services the refresh request to con-
tinue counting. This operation ensures that refresh requests occur at the correct interval. Other-
wise, the time between refresh requests would be a function of varying bus activity. When the
BIU services the refresh request, it clears the request and increments the refresh address.
