Table 2-2. SC3200 Memory Controller Registers (Continued)

Bit Description

11RSVD (Reserved). Write as 0.

10:8

RRD (ACT(0) to ACT(1) Command Period, tRRD). Minimum number of SDRAM clocks between ACT and ACT command

 

to two different component banks within the same module bank. The memory controller does not perform back-to-back Acti-

 

vate commands to two different component banks without a READ or WRITE command between them. Hence, this field

 

should be written as 001.

7RSVD (Reserved). Write as 0.

6:4

DPL (Data-in to PRE command period, tDPL). Minimum number of SDRAM clocks from the time the last write datum is

 

sampled till the bank is precharged:

 

 

 

000: Reserved

010: 2 CLK

100: 4 CLK

110: 6 CLK

 

001: 1 CLK

011: 3 CLK

101: 5 CLK

111: 7 CLK

 

 

3:0

RSVD (Reserved). Leave unchanged. Always returns a 101h.

Note: Refer to the SDRAM manufacturer’s specification for more information on component banks.

GX_BASE+8414h-8417h

MC_GBASE_ADD (R/W)

Reset Value: 00000000h

 

 

 

31:18 RSVD (Reserved). Write as 0.

 

 

17TE (Test Enable TEST[3:0]).

0:TEST[3:0] are driven low (normal operation).

1:TEST[3:0] pins are used to output test information

16TECTL (Test Enable Shared Control Pins).

0:RASB#, CASB#, CKEB, WEB# (normal operation).

1:RASB#, CASB#, CKEB, WEB# are used to output test information

15:12

SEL (Select). This field is used for debug purposes only and should be left at zero for normal operation.

11RSVD (Reserved). Write as 0.

10:0

GBADD (Graphics Base Address). This field indicates the graphics memory base address, which is programmable on 512

 

KB boundaries. This field corresponds to address bits [29:19].

 

 

Note that BC_DRAM_TOP must be set to a value lower than the Graphics Base Address.

 

 

 

 

GX_BASE+8418h-841Bh

MC_DR_ADD (R/W)

Reset Value: 00000000h

 

 

 

 

31:10

RSVD (Reserved). Write as 0.

 

 

 

 

9:0

DRADD (Dirty RAM Address). This field is the address index that is used to access the Dirty RAM with the MC_DR_ACC

 

register. This field does not auto increment.

 

 

 

 

 

 

GX_BASE+841Ch-841Fh

MC_DR_ACC (R/W)

Reset Value: 0000000xh

 

 

 

 

31:2

RSVD (Reserved). Write as 0.

 

 

1D (Dirty Bit). This bit is read/write accessible.

0V (Valid Bit). This bit is read/write accessible.
