3.4.2Memory Interface Signals (Continued)

Signal Name

Ball No.

Type

Description

Mux

 

 

 

 

 

DQM7

AB31

O

Data Mask Control Bits. During memory read cycles,

---

 

 

 

these outputs control whether SDRAM output buffers are

 

DQM6

AG29

 

---

 

driven on the MD bus or not. All DQM signals are

 

 

 

 

DQM5

AK21

 

---

 

asserted during read cycles.

 

 

 

 

 

DQM4

AL15

 

During memory write cycles, these outputs control

---

 

 

 

whether or not MD data is written into SDRAM.

 

DQM3

AC31

 

---

 

DQM[7:0] connect directly to the [DQM7:0] pins of each

 

 

 

 

DQM2

AG30

 

---

 

DIMM connector.

 

 

 

 

DQM1

AH23

 

 

---

 

 

 

 

 

DQM0

AL11

 

 

---

 

 

 

 

 

CKEA

AL22

O

Clock Enable. These signals are used to enter Suspend/

---

 

 

 

power-down mode. CKEA is used with CS[1:0]#.

 

 

 

 

If CKEA goes low when no read or write cycle is in

 

 

 

 

progress, the SDRAM enters power-down mode. To

 

 

 

 

ensure that SDRAM data remains valid, the self-refresh

 

 

 

 

command is executed. To exit this mode, and return to

 

 

 

 

normal operation, drive CKEA high.

 

 

 

 

These signals should have an external pull-down resistor

 

 

 

 

of 33 KΩ.

 

 

 

 

 

 

SDCLK3

V29

O

SDRAM Clocks. SDRAM uses these clocks to sample

---

 

 

 

all control, address, and data lines. To ensure that the

 

SDCLK2

AA28

 

---

 

Suspend mode functions correctly, SDCLK3 and

 

 

 

 

SDCLK1

W29

 

---

 

SDCLK1 should be used with CS1#. SDCLK2 and

 

 

 

SDCLK0 should be used together with CS0#.

 

SDCLK0

AJ21

 

---

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

SDCLK_IN

AJ27

I

SDRAM Clock Input. The SC1200/SC1201 processor

---

 

 

 

samples the memory read data on this clock. Works in

 

 

 

 

conjunction with the SDCLK_OUT signal.

 

 

 

 

 

 

SDCLK_OUT

AK28

O

SDRAM Clock Output. This output is routed back to

---

 

 

 

SDCLK_IN. The board designer should vary the length of

 

 

 

 

the board trace to control skew between SDCLK_IN and

 

 

 

 

SDCLK.
