Writing hexadecimal value 0x00000000 to address location 0xCC000008 will cause a
Mode Register Set command to be initiated. See the chosen SDRAM Memory vendor’s
datasheet for Mode-Register-Set Timing with CAS to data delay of 2 to view the
signaling associated with this command.
Writing hexadecimal value 0x00000001 to address location 0xCC000008 will cause a
Mode Register Set command to be initiated. See the chosen SDRAM Memory vendor’s
datasheet for Mode-Register-Set Timing with CAS to data delay of 3 to view the
signaling associated with this command.
Writing hexadecimal value 0x00000002 to address location 0xCC000008 will cause a
Precharge All command to be initiated. See the chosen SDRAM Memory vendor’s
datasheet for Precharge-All Timing, to view the signaling associated with this
command.
Writing hexadecimal value 0x00000003 to address location 0xCC000008 will cause a
NOP command to be initiated. See the chosen SDRAM Memory vendor’s datasheet for
NOP Timing to view the signaling associated with this command.
Writing hexadecimal value 0x00000004 to address location 0xCC000008 will cause a
Auto-Refresh command to be initiated. See the chosen SDRAM Memory vendor’s
datasheet for Auto-Refresh Timing to view the signaling associated with this command.
Writing hexadecimal value 0x00000005 to address location 0xCC000008 will cause a
Burst Terminate command to be initiated. See the chosen SDRAM Memory vendor’s
datasheet for Burst Terminate Timing to view the signaling associated with this
command.
Tabl e 110 shows the values contained on the control signals for each command that is
issued using the SDRAM Instruction Register (SDR_IR).
Auto-Refresh 100 Used to produce a refresh command to the SDRAM to avoid loss of data.
The times between successive refresh commands is a function of the
SDRAM that is chosen.
Burst Terminate 101 A command issued to the SDRAM to terminate a current fixed length
burst.
(Reserved) 110 Writing to this location will cause undetermined results.
(Reserved) 111 Writing to this location will cause undetermined results.
