The 256Mb DDR SDRAM is a high-speed COMS, dynamic random-access memory containing 268,435,456 bits. It is internally configured as a quad-bank DRAM. The 256Mb DDR SDRAM uses a double-data-rate architecture to achieve high-speed operation. The double data rate architecture is essentially a 2n prefetch architecture with an interface designed to transfer two data words per clock cycle at the I/O pins. A single read or write access for the 256Mb DDR SDRAM effectively consists of a single 2n-bit wide, one clock cycle data transfer at the internal DRAM core and two corresponding n-bit wide, one-half-clock-cycle data transfers at the I/O pins. A bidirectional data strobe (DQS) is transmitted externally, along with data, for use in data capture at the receiver. DQS is an intermittent strobe transmitted by the DDR SDRAM during READs and by the memory controller during WRITEs. DQS is edge-aligned with data for READs and center-aligned with data for WRITEs. The 256Mb DDR SDRAM operates from a differential clock (CLK and CLK#; the crossing of CLK going HIGH and CLK# going LOW will be referred to as the postive edge of CLK). Commands (address and control signals) are registered at verey positive edge of CLK. Input data is registered on both edges of DQS, and output data is referenced to both edges of DQS, as well as to both edges of CLK. Read and Write assesses to the DDR SDRAM are burst oriented; accesses start at a selected location and continue for a programmed number of locations in a programmed sequence. Accesses begin with the registration of an ACTIVE command, which is then followed by a READ or WRITE command. The address bits registered coincident with the ACTIVE command are used to select the bank and row to be accessed (BA0,BA1 select the bank; A0-A12 select the row). The address bits registered coincident with sthe READ or WRITE command are used to select the starting column location for the burst access. The DDR SDRAM provides for programmable READ or WRITE burst lengths of 2,4 or 8 locations. An AUTO PRECHARGE function may be enabled to provide a selftimed row precharge that is initiated at the end of the burst access. As with standard SDRAMs, the pipelined, multibank architecture of DDR SDRAMs allows for concurrent operation, thereby providing high effective bandwidth by hiding row precharge and activation time. The 256Mb DDR SDRAM is designed to operate in either low-power memory systems. An auto refresh mode is provided, along with a power-saving, power-down mode. All inputs are compatible with the JEDEC Standard for SSTL_2. All outputs are SSTL_2, Class II compatible. Initial devices will have a VDD supply of 3.3V (nominal). Eventually, all devices will migrate to a VDD supply of 2.5V(nominal). During this initial period of product availability. this split will be vendor and device specific. This data sheet includes all features and functionality required for JEDEC DDR devices; options not required but listed, are noted as such. Certain vendors may elect to offer a superset of this specification by offering improved timing and/or including optional features. Users benefit from knowing that any system design based on the required aspects of this specification are supported by all DDR SDRAM vendors; conversely, users seeking to use any superset specifications bear the responsibility to verify support with individual vendors.

PIN DESCRIPTIONS Symbol CLIK,CLK# Type Input Description
Preliminary
VG37648041AT 256M:x4, x8, x16 CMOS Synchronous Dynamic RAM
Clock: CLK and CLK# are differential clock inputs. All address and control input signals are sampled on the positive edge of CLK/negative edge of CLK#. Ouptut(read) data is referenced to both edges of CLK. Internal clock signals are dervied from CLK/CLK#. Clock Enable: CKE HIGH activates, and CKE LOW deactivates internal clock signals, and device input buffers and output drivers. Deactivating the clock provides PRECHARGE POWER-DOWN and SELF REFRESH operation (all banks idle), or ACTIVE POWER-DOWN (row ACTIVE in any bank). CKE is synchronous for all functions except for disabling outputs, which is achieved asynchronously. Input buffers, excluding CLK, CLK# and CKE are disabled during power-down and self refresh modes, providing low standby power. CKE will recognize an LVCMOS LOW level prior to VREF being stable on power-up. Chip Select: CS# enables (registered LOW) and disables (registered HIGH) the command decoder. All commands are masked when CS# is registered HIGH. CS# provides for external bank selection on systems with multiple banks. CS# is considered part of the command code. Command Inputs: RAS#, CAS# and WE# (along with CS#) define the command being entered. Input Data Mask: DM is an input mask signal for write data. Input data is masked when DM is sampled HIGH along with that input data during a WRITE access. DM is sampled on both edges of DQS. DM pins include dummy loading internally, to match the DQ and DQS loading. For the x16, LDM corresponds to the data on DQ0-DQ7; UDM corresponds to the data on DQ8-DQ15. Bank Address Inputs: BA0 and BA1 define to which bank an ACTIVE, READ, WRITE or PRECHARGE command is being applied. Address Inputs: Provide the row address for ACTIVE commands, and the column address and AUTO PRECHARGE bit for READ/WRITE commands, to select one location out of the memory array in the respective bank. A10 is sampled during a PRECHARGE command to determine whether the PRECHARGE applies to one bank (A10 LOW) or all banks (A10 HIGH). If only one bank is to be precharged, the bank is selected by BA0,BA1. The address inputs also provide the op-code durinbg a LOAD MODE REGISTER command. Data Input/Output: Data bus Data Strobe: Output with read data, input with write data. Edge-aligned with read data, centered in write data. Used to capture write data. For the x16, LDQS corresponds to the data on DQ0-DQ7; UDQS corresponds to the data on DQ8-DQ15. No Connect: these pins should be left unconnected. DQ Power Supply:+2.5V DQ Ground. Power Supply: +3.3V Ground. SSTL_2 reference voltage.

VG37648041AT 256M:x4, x8, x16 CMOS Synchronous Dynamic RAM
The 256Mb DDR SDRAM is a high-speed COMS, dynamic random-access memory containing 268,435,456 bits. The 256Mb DDR SDRAM is internally configured as a quad bank DRAM. The 256Mb DDR SDRAM uses a double-data-rate architecture to achieve high-speed operation. The double data rate architecture is essentially a 2n prefetch architecture with an interface designed to transfer two data words per clock cycle at the I/O pins. A single read or write access for the 256Mb DDR SDRAM effectively consists of a single 2n-bit wide, one clock cycle data transfer at the internal DRAM core and two corresponding n-bit wide, one-half-clock-cycle data transfers at the I/O pins. Read and write accesses to the DDR SDRAM are burst oriented; accesses start at a selected location and continue for a programmed number of locations in a programmed sequence. Accesses begin with the registration of an ACTIVE command. which is then followed by a READ or WRITE command. The address bits registered coincident with the ACTIVE command are used to select the bank and row to be accessed (BA0,BA1 select the bank; A0-A11 select the row). The address bits registered coincident with the READ or WRITE command are used to select the starting column location for the burst access. Prior to normal operation, the DDR SDRAM must be initialized. the following sections provide detailed information covering device initialization, register definition, command descriptions and device operation.
Initialization
DDR SDRAMs must be powered up and initialized in a predefined manner. Operational procedures other than those specified may result in undefined operation. Power must first be applied to VDD, then to VDDQ, and finally to VREF (and to the system VTT). VTT must be applied after VDDQ to avoid device latch-up, which may cause permanent damage to the device. VREF can be applied any time after V DDQ, but is expected to be nominally coincident with VTT. Except for CKE, inputs are not recognized as valid until after V REF is applied. CKE is an SSTL_2 input, but will detect an LVCMOS LOW level after V DD is applied. Maintaining an LVCMOS LOW level on CKE during power-up will put the DQ and DQS outputs in the High-Z stage, where they will remain until driven in normal operation (by a read access). After all power supply and reference voltages are stable, and the clock is stable, the DDR SDRAM requires a 200 µ s delay prior to applying an executable a command. Once the 200 µ s delay has been satisfied, a COMMAND INHIBIT or NOP comand should be applied, and CKE should be brought HIGH. Following the NOP command, a PRECHARGE ALL command should be applied. Next a LOAD MODE REGISTER command should be issued for the Extended Mode Register to enable the DLL, then a LOAD MODE REGISTER comand should be issued for the base mode Register, to reset the DLL, and to program the operating parameters. 200 clock cycles are required between the DLL reset and any read command. A PRECHARGE ALL command should be applied, placing the device in the “all banks idle” stage.

cycles, the DDR SDRAM is ready for normal operation.

Once in the idle state, two AUTO REFRESH cycles must be performed. Additionally, a LOAD MODE REGISTER command for the base Mode Register, with the reset DLL bit deactivated (i.e. to program operating parameters without resetting the DLL) must be performed. Following these
Register Definition
Base Mode Register The base mode register is used to define the specific mode of operation of the DDR SDRAM. This definition includes the selection of a burst length, a burst type, a CAS latency, and an operating mode, as shown in Figure 1. The base mode register is programmed via the LOAD MODE REGISTER command (with BA0=0 and BA1=0) and will retain the stored information unitil it is programmed again or the device loses power. Base mode register bits M0-M2 specify the burst length, M3 specifies the type of burst (sequential or interleaved), M4-M6 specify the CAS latency, and M7-M11 specify the operating mode. The base mode register must be loaded when all banks are idle, and the controller must wait the specified time before initiating the subsequent operation. Violating either of these requirements will result in unspecified operation.
Burst Length
Read and write accesses to the DDR SDRAM are burst oriented, with the burst length being programmable, as shown in Figure 1. the burst length determines the maximum number of column locations that can be accessed for a given READ or WRITE command. Burst lengths of 2, 4, or 8 locations are available for both the sequential and the interleaved burst types. Reserved states should not be used, as unknown operation or incompatibility with future versions may result. When a READ or WRITE command is issued, a block of columns equal to the burst length is effectively selected. All accesses for that burst take place within this block, meaning that the burst will wrap within the block if a boundary is reached. The block is uniquely selected by A1-Ai when the burst length is set to two, by A2-Ai when the burst length is set to four and by A3-Ai when the burst length is set to eight (where Ai is the most significant column address bit for a given configuration). The remaining (least significant) address bit(s) is (are) used to select the starting location within the block. The programmed burst length applies to both READ and WRITE bursts.

Read Latency The READ latency is the delay, in clock cycles, between the registration of a READ command and the availability of the first piece of output data. The latency can be set to 2 or 2.5 clocks (latencies of 1.5 or 3 are optional, and one or both of these optional latencies might be supported by some vendors). If a READ command is registered at clock edge n, and the latency is m clocks, the data will be available nominally coincident with clock edge n + m. Table 2 below indicated the operating frequencies at which each CAS latency setting can be used. Reserved stated should not be used as unknown operation, or incompatibility with future versions may result.
Operating Mode The normal operating mode is selected by setting M7-M12 to zero; to reset the DLL and select normal operation , program M7, M9-M12 to 0 and M8 to 1. All other combinations of values for M7-M12 are reserved for future use and/ or test modes. Test Modes and reserved states should not be used because unknown operation or incompatibility with future versions may result.

The Extended Mode Resister is used to enable or disable the DLL of the DDR SDRAM, as shown in Figure 3. The Extended Mode Register is programmed via the LOAD MODE REGISTER command (with BA0=1 and BA1=0) and will retain the stored information until it is programmed again or the device loses power. The Extended Mode Register must be loaded when all banks are idle, and the controller must wait the specified time before initiating the subsequent operation. Voolating either of these requirements will result in unspecified operaiton.

COMMAND INHIBIT
Preliminary
VG37648041AT 256M:x4, x8, x16 CMOS Synchronous Dynamic RAM
The COMMAND INHIBIT function prevents new commands from being executed by the DDR SDRAM. The DDR SDRAM is effectively deselected. Operations already in progress are not affected.
NO OPERATION (NOP) The NO OPERATION (NOP) command is used to perform a NOP to an DDR SDRAM which is selected (CS# is LOW). This prevents unwanted commands from being registered during idle or wait states. Operations already in progress are not affected.
LOAD MODE REGISTER The mode registers are loaded via inputs A0-A12 See mode register descriptions in the Register Definition section. The LOAD MODE REGISTER command can only be issued when all banks are idle, and a subsequent executable command cannot be issued until tMRD is met.
ACTIVE The ACTIVE command is used to open (or activate) a row in particular bank for a subsequent access. The value on the BA0, BA1 inputs selects the bank, and the address provided on inputs A0-A12 selects the row. This row remains active (or open) for accesses until a PRECHARGE command is issued to that bank . A PRECHARGE command must be issued befor opening a different row in the same bank.
READ The READ command is used to initaiate a burst read access to an active row. The value on the BA0, BA1 inputs selects the bank, and the address provided on inputs A0-Ai(where i=8 for x 16, 9 for x8 or 11 for x 4, except A10) selects the starting column location. The value on input A10 determines whether or not AUTO PRECHARGE is used. If AUTO PRECHARGE is selected, the row being accessed will be precharged at the end of the READ burst; if AUTO PRECHARGE is not selected, the row will remain open for subsequent accesses.
WRITE The WRITE command is used to initaiate a burst write access to an active row. The value on the BA0, BA1 inputs selects the bank, and the address provided on inputs A0-Ai(where i=8 for x 16, 9 for 8 or 11 for x 4, except A10) selects the starting column location. The value on input A10 determines whether or not AUTO PRECHARGE is used. If AUTO PRECHARGE is selected, the row being accessed will be precharged at the end of the WRITE burst; if AUTO PRECHARGE is not selected, the row will remain open for subsequent accesses. Input data appearing on the DQs is written to the memory array subject to the DM input logic level appearing coincident whith the data. If a given DM signal is registered LOW, the corresponding data will be written to memory; if the DM signal is registered HIGH, the corresponding data inputs will be ignored, and a WRITE will not be executed to that byte/column location.

PRECHARGE
Preliminary
VG37648041AT 256M:x4, x8, x16 CMOS Synchronous Dynamic RAM
The PRECHARGE command is used to deactivate the open row in a particular bank or the open row in all banks. The bank(s) will be available for a subsequent row access a specified time (tRP) after the PRECHARGE command is issued. Input A10 determines whether one or all banks are to be precharged, and in the case where only one bank is to be precharged, inputs BA0, BA1 select the bank. Otherwise BA0, BA1 are treated as “Don’ Care.” Once a bank has been precharged, it is in the idle state and must be activated t prior to any READ or WRITE commands being issued to that bank.
AUTO PRECHARGE AUTO PRECHARGE is a feature which performs the same individual-bank precharge function described above, but without requiring an explicit command. This is accomplished by using A10 to enable AUTO PRECHARGE in conjunction with a specific READ or WRITE command. A precharge of the bank/row that is addressed with the READ or WRITE command is automatically performed upon completion of the READ or WRITE burst. AUTO PRECHARGE is nonpersistent in that it is either enabled or disabled for each individual READ or WRITE command. AUTO PRECHARGE ensures that the precharge is initiated at the earliest valid stage within a burst. The user must not issue another command to the same bank until the precharge time ( tRP) is completed. This is determined as if an explicit PRECHARGE command was issued at the earliest possible time, as described for each burst type in the Operation section of this data sheet.
BURST TERMINATE The BURST TERMINATE command is used to truncate read bursts (with autoprecharge disabled). The most recently registered READ command prior to the BURST TERMINATE command will be truncated, as shown in the Operation section of this data sheet.
AUTO REFRESH AUTO REFRESH is used during normal operation of the DDR SDRAM and is analagous to CAS# BEFORE-RAS# (CBR) REFRESH in conventional DRAMs. This command is nonpersistent, so it must be issued each time a refresh is required. The addressing is generated by the internal refresh controller. This makes the address bits a “Don’ Care” t during an AUTO REFRESH command. The 256Mb DDR SDRAM requires AUTO REFRESH cycles at an average interval of 7.81 µ s(maximum).

SELF REFRESH
Preliminary
VG37648041AT 256M:x4, x8, x16 CMOS Synchronous Dynamic RAM
The SELF REFRESH command can be used to retain data in the DDR SDRAM, even if the rest of the system is powered down. When in the self refresh mode,the DDr SDRAM retains data without external clocking. The SELF REFRESH command is initiated like an AUTO REFRESH command except CKE is disabled (LOW). The DLL is automatically disabled upon entering SELF REFRESH, and is automatically enabled upon exiting SELF REFRESH (200 clock cycles must then occur befor a READ command can be issued). Input signals except CKE are “Don’ Care” during SELF REFRESH. t
Once self refresh mode is engaged, the DDR SDRAM provides its own internal clocking, causing it to perform its own AUTO REFRESH cycles. The DDR SDRAM must remain in self refresh mode for a minimum period equal to tRAS and may remain in self refresh mode for an indefinite period beyond that. The procedure for exiting self refresh requires a sequence of commands. First, CLK must be stable prior to CKE going back HIGH. Once CKE is HIGH, the DDR SDRAM must have NOP commands issued for
t
XSR because time is required for the completion of any internal refresh in progress. A simple algorithm for
meeting both refresh and DLL requirements is to apply NOPs for 200 clock cycles before applying any other command.
OPERATIONS BANK/ROW ACTIVATION Before any READ or WRITE commands can be issued to a bank within the DDR SDRAM, a row in that bank must be “opened.” This is accomplished via the ACTIVE command, which selects both the bank and the row to be activated. After opening a row (issuing an ACTIVE command). a READ or WRITE command may be issued to that row, subject to the tRCD specification. A subsequent ACTIVE command to a different row in the same bank can only be issued after the previous active row has been “closed” (precharged). The minimum time interval between successive ACTIVE commands to the same bank is defined by tRC. A subsequent ACTIVE command to another bank can be issued while the first bank is being accessed, which results in a reduction of total row-access overhead. The minimum time interval between successive ACTIVE commands to different banks is defined by tRRD.

READs READ bursts are initiated with a READ command, as shown in Figure 6. The starting column and bank addresses are provided with the READ command and AUTO PRECHARGE is either enabled or disabled for that burst access. If AUTO PRECHARGE is enabled, the row being accessed is precharged at the completion of the burst. For the generic READ commands used in the following illustrations, AUTO PRECHARGE is disabled. During READ bursts, the valid data-out element from the starting column address will be available following the CAS latency after the READ command. Each subsequent data-out element will be valid nominally at the next positive or negative clock edge (i.e. at the next crossing of CLK and CLK#). Figure 7 shows general timing for each posible CAS latency setting. DQS is driven by the DDR SDRAM along with output data. The initial LOW state on DQS is known as the read preamble; the LOW state coincident with the last data-out element is known as the read postamble. Upon completion of a burst, assuming no other commands have been initiated, the DQs will go High-Z. Data fom any READ burst may be concatenated with or truncated with data from a subsequent READ command. In either case, a continuous flow of data can be maintained. The first data element from the new burst follow either the last element of a completed burst or the last desired data element of a longer burst which is being truncated. The new READ command should be issued x cycles after the first READ command, where x equals the number of desired data element pairs (pairs are required by the 2n prefetch architecture). This is shown in Figure 8. A READ command can be initiated on any clock cycle following a previous READ command. Non consecutive READ data is shown for illustration in figure 9. Full-speed random read accesses within a page (or pages) can be performed as shown in Figure 10.

Data from any READ burst may be truncated with a BURST TERMINATE command, as shown in Figure 11. The BURST TERMINATE latency is equal to the read (CAS) latency, i.e. the BURST TERMINATE command should be issued x cycles after the READ command, where x equals the number of desired data element pairs (pairs are Data from any READ burst must be completed or truncated before a subsequent WRITE command can be issued. If truncation is necessary, the BURST TERMINATE command must be used, as shown in Figure 12. The tDDS MIN case is shown; the tDDS MAX case has a longer bus idle time (tDDS MIN and tDDS MAX are defined in the section on WRITEs). A READ burst may be followed by, or truncated with, a PRECHARGE command to the same bank (provided that AUTO PRECHARGE was not activated). The PRECHARGE command should be issued x cycles after the READ command, where x equals the number of desired data element paires (pairs are required by the 2n prefetch architecture). This is shown if Figure 13 for READ latencies of 2.2.5 and 3. Following the PRECHARGE command, a subsequent command to the same bank cannot be issued until tRP is met. Note that part of the row precharge time is hidden during the access of the last data elements. In the case of a READ being executed to completion. a PRECHARGE command issued at the optimum time (asdescribed above) provides the same operation that would result from the same READ burst with AUTO PRECHARGE enabled. The disadvantage of the precharge command is that it requires that the command and address buses be available at the appropriate time to issue the command. The advantage of the PRECHARGE command is that it can be used to truncate bursts.

WRITEs
Preliminary
VG37648041AT 256M:x4, x8, x16 CMOS Synchronous Dynamic RAM
WRITE bursts are initiated with a WRITE command, as shown in figure 14. The starting column and bank addresses are provided with the WRITE command, and AUTO PRECHARGE is either enabled or disabled for that acess. If AUTOPRECHARGE is enabled, the row being accessed is precharged at the completion of the burst. For the generic WRITE commands used in the following illustrations, AUTOPRECHARGE is disabled. During WRITE bursts, the first valid data-in element will be registered on the first rising edge of DQS following the write command, and subsequent data elements will be registered on successive edges of DQS. The LOW state on DQS between the WRITE command and the first rising edge is known as the write preamble; the LOW state on DQS following the last data-in element is known as the write postamble. The time between the WRITE command and the first corresponding rising edge of DQS (tDSS) is specified with a relatively wide range (from 75% to 125% of 1 clock cycle), so most of the WRITE diagrams that follow are drawn for the two extreme cases (i.e. tDSS MIN and tDSS MAX). Figures 15 and 16 show the two extremes of tDSS for a burst of 4. Upon completion of a burst, assuming no other commands have been initiated, the DQs will remain High-Z and any additional input data will be ignored. Data for any WRITE burst may be concatenated with or truncated with a subsequent WRITE command. In either case, a continuous flow of input data can be maintained. The new WRITE command can be issued on any clock following the previous WRITE command. The first data element from the new burst is applied after either the last element of a completed burst or the last desired data element of a longer burst which is being truncated. The new WRITE command should be issued x cycles after the first WRITE command, where x equals the number of desired data element pairs (pairs are required by the 2n prefetch architecture). Figures 17 and 18 show concatenated bursts of 4. An example of non-consecutive WRITEs is shown in Figure 19. Full-speed random write accesses within a page or pages can be performed as shown in Figures 20 and 21. Data for any WRITE burst may be followed by a subsequent READ command. To follow a WRITE without truncating the write burst, tWTR should be met as shown in Figures 22 and 23. Data for any WRITE burst may be truncated by a subsequent READ command, as shown in Figures 24-27. Note that only the data-in pairs that are registered prior to the tWTR period are written to the internal array, and any subsequent data-in should be masked with DM(through one-half clock after the READ command).

Data for any WRITE burst may be followed by a subsequent PRECHARGE command. To follow a WRITE with out truncating the write burst, tWR should be met as shown in Figures 28 and 29. Data for any WRITE burst may be truncated by a subsequent PRECHARGE command, as shown in Figures 30-33. Note that only the data -in pairs that are registered prior to the tWR period are written to the internal array, and any subsequent data-in should be masked with DM (through one-half clock after the READ command). Following the PRECHARGE command, a subsequent command to the same bank can not be issued until tRP is met. In the case of a write burst being executed to completion, a PRECHARGE command issued at the optimum time (as described above) provides the same operation that would result from the same burst with AUTO PRECHARGE. The disadvantage of the PRECHARGE command is that it requires that the command and address buses be available at the appropriate time to issue the command. The advantage of the PRECHARGE command is that it can be used to truncate bursts.

PRECHARGE
Preliminary
VG37648041AT 256M:x4, x8, x16 CMOS Synchronous Dynamic RAM
The PRECHARGE command is used to deactivate the open row in a particular bank or the open row in all banks. The bank(s) will be available for a subsequent row access some specified time (tRP) after the PRECHARGE command is issued. Input A10 determines whether one or all banks are to be precharged, and in the case where only one bank is to be prcharged, inputs BA0,BA1 select the bank. When all banks are to be precharged, inputs BA0,BA1 are treated as “Don’ Care.” Once a bank has t been precharged, it is in the idle state and must be activated prior to any READ or WRITE commands being issued to that bank.
POWER-DOWN
Power-down is entered when CKE is registered LOW (no accesses can be in progress). If powerdown occurs when all banks are idle, this mode is referred to as precharge power down; if powerdown occurs when there is a row active in either bank, this mode is referred to as active power-down. Entering power-down deactivates the input and output buffers, excluding CLK, CLK# and CKE. For maximum power savings, the user has the option of disabling the DLL prior to entering Power-down. In that case, the DLL must be enabled after exiting power-down, and 200 clock cycles must occur before a READ command can be issued. In either case, CKE LOW and a stable clock signal should be maintained at the inputs of the DDR SDRAM, and all other input signals are “Don’ Care”. The t device may not remain in the power-down state loger than the refresh period (64ms) since no refersh operations are performed in this mode.
The power-down state is exited when CKE is registered HIGH, and a command may be applied be applied one clock cycle later.

4. The following states must not be interrupted by a command issued to the same bank, COMMAND INHIBIT or NOP commands, or allowable commands to the other bank should be issued on any clock edge occurring during these states. Allowable commands to the other bank are determined by its current state and Truth Table3, and according to Truth Table 4. Precharging: Starts with registration of a PRECHARGE command and ends when tRP is met. Once
t
RP is met, the bank will be in the idle state.
Row Activating: Starts with registration of an ACTIVE command and ends when tRCD is met. Once
tRCD
is met, the bank will be in the “row active” state.
Read w/AutoPrecharge Enabled: Starts with registration of a READ command with AUTO PRECHARGE
enabled and ends when tRP has been met. Once tRP is met, the bank will be in the idle state. Write w/AutoPrecharge Enabled: Starts with registration of a WRITE command with AUTO PRECHARGE enabled and ends when tRP has been met. Once tRP is met, the bank will be in the idle state. Write w/Auto Precharge Enabled: Starts with registrayion of a WRITE command with AUTO PRECHARGE enabled and ends when tRP has been met. Once tRP is met, the bank will be in the idle state.
5.The following states must not be interrupted by any executable command; COMMAND INHIBIT or NOP commands must be applied on each positive clock edge during these states. Refreshing: Starts with registration of an AUTO REFERESH command and ends when tRC is met. Once tRC is met, the DDR SDRAM will be in the “all banks idle” state. Accessing Mode Register: Starts with registration of a LOAD MODE REGISTER command and ends when tMTC has been met. Once tMTC is met, the DDR SDRAM will be in the “all banks idle” state. Precharging All: Starts with registration of a PRECHARGE ALL command and ends when tRP is met. Once tRP is met, all banks will be in the idle state. 6. All states and sequences not shown are illegal or reserved. 7. Not bank-specific; reguired that all banks are idle. 8. May or may not be bank-specific; if all banks are to be precharged, all must be in a valid state for precharging. 9. Not bank-specific; BURST TERMINATE affects the most recent READ burst, regardless of bank. 10. READs or WRITEs listed in the Command/Action column include READs or WRITEs with AUTO PRECHARGE enabled and READs or WRITEs with AUTO PRECHARGE disabled.

This table describes alternate bank operation, except where noted, i.e., the current state is for bank n and the commands shown are those allowed to be issued to bank m (assuming that bank m is in such a state that the given command is allowable). Exceptions are covered in the notes below.

3. Current state definitions:
Preliminary
VG37648041AT 256M:x4, x8, x16 CMOS Synchronous Dynamic RAM
Idle: The bank has been precharged, and tRP has been met. Row Active: A row in the bank has been activated, and tRCD has been met. No data bursts/accesses and no register accesses are in progress. Read: A READ burst has been initiated, with AUTO PRECHARGE disabled, and has not yet terminated or been terminated. Write: A WRITE burst has been initiated, with AUTO PRECHARGE disabled, and has not yet terminated or been terminated. Read with Auto Precharge Enabled: See following text Write with Auto Precharge Enabled: See following text
The Read with Auto Precharge Enabled or Write with Auto Precharge Enabled states can each be broken into two parts: the access period and the precharge period. The precharge period is defined as if the same burst was executed with Auto Precharge disabled and then followed with the earliest possible PRECHARGE command that still accesses all of the data in the burst. The access period starts with registration of the command and ends where the precharge period (or tRP) begins. During the precharge period of the Read with Auto Precharge Enabled or Write with Auto Precharge Enabled states, ACTIVE, PRECHARGE, READ and WRITE commands to the other bank may be applied; during the access period, only ACTIVE and PRECHARGE commands to the other bank may be applied. In either case, all other related limitations apply (e.g. following a Read with Auto Precharge by a Write command to another bank is subject to the same data path limitations as when following a Read by a Write).
4. AUTO REFERESH, LOAD MODE REGISTER and PRECHARGE ALL commands may only be issued when all banks are idle. 5. A BURST TERMINATE command cannot be issued to another bank; it applies to the bank represented by the current state only. 6. All states and sequences not shown are illegal or reserved. 7. READs or WRITEs listed in the Command/Action column include READs or WRITEs with AUTO PRECHARGE enabled and READs or WRITEs with AUTO PRECHARGE disabled.

Preliminary
VG37648041AT 256M:x4, x8, x16 CMOS Synchronous Dynamic RAM
2. Tests for AC timing, IDD, and electrical, AC and DC characteristics, may be conducted at nominal reference/supply voltage levels, but the related specifications and device operation are guaranteed for the full
VTT Output 25Ω (VOUT) 25Ω (Test point) 30pF
4.AC timing and IDD tests may use a VIL to VIH swing of up to 1.5V in the test environment, but input timing is still referenced to VREF (or to the crossing point for CLK/CLK#), and parameter specifications are guaranteed for the specified AC input levels under normal use conditions. The minimum slew rate for the input signals used to test the device is 1V/ns in the range between VIL(AC) and VIH(AC). 5.The AC and DC input level specifications are as defined in the SSTL_2 Standard (i.e. the receiver will effectively switch as a result of the signal crossing the AC input level, and will remain in that state as long as the signal does not ring back above (below) the DC input LOW(HIGH) level. 6.VREF is expected to track variations in the DC level of V DDQ of the transmitting device. peak-to-peak noise on VREF may not exceed +/-2% of the DC value. 7.VTT is not applied directly to the device. VTT is a system supply for signal termination resistors, is expected to be set equal to VREF and must track variations in the DC level of V REF. 8.VID is the magnitude of the difference between the input level on CLK and the input level on CLK#. 9.The value of VIX is expected to equal VREF and must track variations in the DC level of V REF. 10.IDD is dependent on output loading and cycle rates. Specified values are obtained with minimum cycle time and the outputs open. 11.Enables on chip refresh and address counters. 12.IDD specifications are tested after the device is properly initialized. 13.This parameter is sampled. VDDQ+2.5V 14.Input slew rate=1V/ns+/-20%. 15.The CLK/CLK# input reference level (for timeing referenced to CLK/CLK#) is the point at which CLK and CLK# cross; the input reference level for signals other than CLK/CLK#, is VREF. 16.Inputs are not recognized as valid until VREF stabilizes. Exceptions: during the period before VREF stabi lizes, CKE=
