(2) 256 MB mode
When a high-level signal is input to the IFID256 pin, the data area is set to 256 MB mode.
In this mode, the 256 MB physical address space can be viewed as 16 images in the 4 GB address space. That
is, the same 256 MB physical address space is accessed regardless of the values of bits 31 to 28 of the CPU
address.

Notes 1.
When a low-level signal is input to the IFIROME pin, this is also used as the external memory area.
When a high-level signal is input to the IFIROB2 pin, this is also used as the external memory area,
and the ROM area is located in the 1 MB area starting at address 0100000H.
2.
When data is written to the RAM area at address FFFEFFFH and below in 256 MB mode, data
having the same contents is also written to the area at address 3FFEFFFH and below, which is
indicated by “Same area” in the figure. The contents of these areas are linked (a memory access is
performed from the RAM area at address 3FFEFFFH and below).
Caution Addresses 3FFF000H to 3FFFFFFH are an access prohibited area. The operation is not
guaranteed when that area is accessed.
