Auto Configuration

This field predefined values for DRAM, cache timing according to
CPU type and system clock. When this field is enabled, the predefined
items will become read-only.

DRAM Timing

The DRAM timing is controlled by the DRAM Timing Registers. The
timing type is dependent on the system design. Slower rates may be
required in some system designs to support loose layouts or slower
memory.

DRAM RAS# Recharge Time

DRAM must continuously be refreshed or it will loose its data. This
option allows you to determine the number of CPU clocks allocated for
Row Address Strobe to accumulate its charge before DRAM is
refreshed. If refreshed time is not enough, refresh may be incomplete
and data will be lost.

DRAM R/W Leadoff Timing

This field allows you to set the number of CPU clocks before reads and
writes to DRAM. By default, it is set to

 7/6 Leadoff timing
