SDRAM Loading
Table 10-2 through Table 10-5 show estimated capacitances for the SDRAM devices that
the ÉlanSC520 microcontroller can support. (See Table 10-8 on page 10-13 for a listing of
the SDRAM devices supported by ÉlanSC520 microcontroller.) The tables are broken up
for SDRAM device data width for clarity. The purpose of these tables is to identify SDRAM
loading as it applies to various bank configurations. The ÉlanSC520 microcontroller
provides some flexibility in signal drive strength to allow the user to optimize performance,
depending on the SDRAM array configuration.
In the estimated capacitance tables, the input capacitance of SRASx, SCASx, SWEx, MAx,
BAx, SDQMx, and SCSx for a single device was assumed to be 5 pF. 4 pF was used for
the CLK signal. The MDx signals are assumed to be 6 pF. These tables do not account for
board trace capacitance. It is assumed in these tables that both pins provided for a control
signal, e.g., SRASA–SRASB, SCASA–SCASB, and SWEA–SWEB are split across banks
evenly.
As can be seen in the tables, a 4-bank configuration of 16-bit devices has a loading of less
than 50 pF for any signal, but for a 4-bank configuration of 4-bit devices, the capacitance
of the interface increases. The ÉlanSC520 microcontroller provides programmable drive
strength buffers on all address, data, and control signals to support varying SDRAM device
loads. See “SDRAM Control Configuration” on page 10-18 for more details.
Notes:
Capacitive loads shown in the table above are derived from an estimated SDRAM pin capacitance
value of 5 pF for SRASx, SCASx, SWEx, MAx, BAx, SDQMx, and SCSx; 4 pF for the CLK signal;
and 6 pF for the MDx signals, per device.
Notes:
Capacitive loads shown in the table above are derived from an estimated SDRAM pin capacitance
value of 5 pF for SRASx, SCASx, SWEx, MAx, BAx, SDQMx, and SCSx; 4 pF for the CLK signal;
and 6 pF for the MDx signals, per device.
