Function

 

CK0-CK1

Input

 

falling edge of CK. A Delay Locked Loop (DLL) circuit is driven from the clock inputs and output timing for read opera-

CKE0-CKE1

 

Input

 

Activates the DDR3 SDRAM CK signal when high and deactivates the CK signal when low. By deactivating the clocks,

 

 

 

CKE low initiates the Power Down mode or the Self Refresh mode.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Enables the associated DDR3 SDRAM command decoder when low and disables the command decoder when high.

 

 

 

S0-S1

Asserts on-die termination for DQ, DM, DQS, and DQS signals if enabled via the DDR3 SDRAM mode register.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

During a Bank Activate command cycle, defines the row address when sampled at the cross point of the rising edge of

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

CK and falling edge of CK. During a Read or Write command cycle, defines the column address when sampled at the

 

 

A0-A9,

 

 

 

cross point of the rising edge of CK and falling edge of CK. In addition to the column address, AP is used to invoke

Input

 

BAn defines the bank to be precharged. If AP is low, autoprecharge is disabled. During a Precharge command cycle,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

AP is used in conjunction with BA0-BAn to control which bank(s) to precharge. If AP is high, all banks will be pre-

DM0-DM7

 

Input

 

The data write masks, associated with one data byte. In Write mode, DM operates as a byte mask by allowing input

 

 

 

data to be written if it is low but blocks the write operation if it is high. In Read mode, DM lines have no effect.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

DQS0-DQS7

 

 

 

The data strobes, associated with one data byte, sourced with data transfers. In Write mode, the data strobe is

 

 

I/O

 

sourced by the controller and is centered in the data window. In Read mode, the data strobe is sourced by the DDR3

 

DQS0-DQS7

 

 

SDRAMs and is sent at the leading edge of the data window. DQS signals are complements, and timing is relative to

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the crosspoint of respective DQS and DQS.
