Commands

13/54

3.3

Bank(Row) Activate command (ACT)

The Bank(Row) Activate command is used to switch a row in a specific bank of the device

from the Idle to the active mode. The bank is selected by BA0 and BA1 and the row by A0 to

A12 (see Table 2: Bank selection using BA0-BA1).

This command is initiated by driving KE High, VIH, with E and RAS Low, VIL, and CAS and W

High.

A minimum delay of tRCD is required after issuing the Bank (Row) Activate command prior to

initiating Read and Write operations from and to the active bank.

A minimum time of tRC is required between two Bank(Row) Activate commands to the same

bank (see Figure 9: Consecutive Bank(Row) Activate command).

3.4

Read command (READ)

The Read command is used to read from the memory array in Burst Read mode. In this

mode, data is output in bursts synchronized with the cross points of the clock signals, K and

The start address of the Burst Read is determined by the column address, A0 to A12, and

the bank address, BA0-BA1, at the beginning of the Burst Read operation. A valid Read

command is initiated by driving E and CAS Low, VIL, and W and RAS High, VIH.

3.5

Read with Auto Precharge command (READA)

This command is identical to the Read command except that a precharge is automatically

performed at the end of the Read operation. The precharge starts tRPD (Burst Length/2

clock periods) after the Read with Auto Precharge command is input.

A tRAS(min) delay elapses between the Bank (Row) Activate and the Auto Precharge

commands. This lock-out mechanism allows a Read with auto Precharge command to be

issued to a bank that has been activated (opened) but has not yet satisfied the tRAS(min)

requirement.

The DDR LPSDRAM supports the Concurrent Auto Precharge mode: a Read with auto-

precharge can be followed by any command to another active bank, as long as that

command does not interrupt the read data transfer, and that all other related limitations

apply (e.g. contention between read data and written data must be avoided). Table 4:

Minimum delay between two commands in concurrent Auto Precharge Mode shows the

minimum delays between a Read with Auto Precharge command to one bank and a

command to a different bank.

Refer to Figure 13 for a description of Read operation with Auto Precharge.
