The EM68916C is a high-speed CMOS DoubleData-Rate-Two (DDR2), synchronous dynamic
random-access memory (SDRAM) containing 128
Mbits in a 16-bit wide data I/Os. It is internally
configured as a quad bank DRAM, 4 banks x 2Mb
addresses x 16 I/Os
The device is designed to comply with DDR2
DRAM key features such as posted CAS# with
additive latency, Write latency = Read latency -1,
Off-Chip Driver (OCD) impedance adjustment, and
On Die Termination(ODT).
All of the control and address inputs are
synchronized with a pair of externally supplied
differential clocks. Inputs are latched at the cross
point of differential clocks (CK rising and CK# falling)
All I/Os are synchronized with a pair of bidirectional
strobes (DQS and DQS#) in a source synchronous
fashion. The address bus is used to convey row,
column, and bank address information in RAS #
, CAS# multiplexing style. Accesses begin with the
registration of a Bank Activate command, and then
it is followed by a Read or Write command. Read
and write accesses to the DDR2 SDRAM are 4 or
8-bit burst oriented; accesses start at a selected
location and continue for a programmed number of
locations in a programmed sequence. Operating
the four memory banks in an interleaved fashion
allows random access operation to occur at a
higher rate than is possible with standard DRAMs.
An auto precharge function may be enabled to
provide a self-timed row precharge that is initiated
at the end of the burst sequence. A sequential and
gapless data rate is possible depending on burst
length, CAS# latency, and speed grade of the
device.

Ball Descriptions
Table 3. Ball Descriptions
Symbol
Type
Description
CK, CK#
Input
Differential Clock: CK, CK# are driven by the system clock. All SDRAM input signals are
sampled on the crossing of positive edge of CK and negative edge of CK#. Output (Read)
data is referenced to the crossings of CK and CK# (both directions of crossing).
CKE
Input
Clock Enable: CKE activates (HIGH) and deactivates (LOW) the CK signal. If CKE goes
LOW synchronously with clock, the internal clock is suspended from the next clock cycle
and the state of output and burst address is frozen as long as the CKE remains LOW.
When all banks are in the idle state, deactivating the clock controls the entry to the Power
Down and Self Refresh modes.
BA0, BA1
Input
Bank Address: BA0 and BA1 define to which bank the BankActivate, Read, Write, or
BankPrecharge command is being applied.
A0-A12
Input
Address Inputs: A0-A11 are sampled during the BankActivate command (row address
A0-A11) and Read/Write command (column address A0-A8 with A10 defining Auto
Precharge).A12 is only for register programming.
CS#
Input
Chip Select: CS# enables (sampled LOW) and disables (sampled HIGH) the command
decoder. All commands are masked when CS# is sampled HIGH. CS# provides for
external bank selection on systems with multiple banks. It is considered part of the
command code.
RAS#
Input
Row Address Strobe: The RAS# signal defines the operation commands in conjunction
with the CAS# and WE# signals and is latched at the crossing of positive edges of CK and
negative edge of CK#. When RAS# and CS# are asserted "LOW" and CAS# is asserted
"HIGH," either the BankActivate command or the Precharge command is selected by the
WE# signal. When the WE# is asserted "HIGH," the BankActivate command is selected
and the bank designated by BA is turned on to the active state. When the WE# is asserted
"LOW," the Precharge command is selected and the bank designated by BA is switched to
the idle state after the precharge operation.
CAS#
Input
Column Address Strobe: The CAS# signal defines the operation commands in
conjunction with the RAS# and WE# signals and is latched at the crossing of positive
edges of CK and negative edge of CK#. When RAS# is held "HIGH" and CS# is asserted
"LOW," the column access is started by asserting CAS# "LOW." Then, the Read or Write
command is selected by asserting WE# “HIGH " or “LOW".
WE#
Input
Write Enable: The WE# signal defines the operation commands in conjunction with the
RAS# and CAS# signals and is latched at the crossing of positive edges of CK and
negative edge of CK#. The WE# input is used to select the BankActivate or Precharge
command and Read or Write command.
LDQS,
Input /
LDQS#
Output
Bidirectional Data Strobe: Specifies timing for Input and Output data. Read Data Strobe
is edge triggered. Write Data Strobe provides a setup and hold time for data and DQM.
LDQS is for DQ0~7, UDQS is for DQ8~15. The data strobes LDOS and UDQS may be
used in single ended mode or paired with LDQS# and UDQS# to provide differential pair
signaling to the system during both reads and writes.A control bit at EMR (1)[A10] enables
or disables all complementary data strobe signals.
UDQS
UDQS#
LDM,
Input
Data Input Mask: Input data is masked when DM is sampled HIGH during a write cycle.
LDM masks DQ0-DQ7, UDM masks DQ8-DQ15.
DQ0 - DQ15
Input /
Output
Data I/O: The DQ0-DQ15 input and output data are synchronized with the positive edges
of CK and CK#. The I/Os are byte-maskable during Writes.
ODT
Input
On Die Termination: ODT enables internal termination resistance. It is applied to each
DQ, LDQS/LDQS#, UDQS/UDQS#, LDM, and UDM signal. The ODT pin is ignored if the
EMR (1) is programmed to disable ODT.

Functional Description
Read and write accesses to the DDR2 SDRAM are burst oriented; accesses start at a selected location and
continue for a burst length of four or eight in a programmed sequence. Accesses begin with the registration of
an Active command, which is then followed by a Read or Write command. The address bits registered
coincident with the active command are used to select the bank and row to be accessed (BA0, BA1 select the
bank; A0-A11 select the row). The address bits registered coincident with the Read or Write command are used
to select the starting column location for the burst access and to determine if the auto precharge command is to
be issued.
Prior to normal operation, the DDR2 SDRAM must be initialized. The following sections provide detailed
information covering device initialization, register definition, command descriptions, and device operation.
z Power-up and Initialization
DDR2 SDRAMs must be powered up and initialized in a predefined manner. Operational procedures other
than those specified may result in undefined operation.
The following sequence is required for POWER UP and Initialization.
1. Apply power and attempt to maintain CKE below 0.2*VDDQ and ODT *1 at a low state (all other inputs may
be undefined.) The VDD voltage ramp time must be no greater than 200ms from when VDD ramps from
300mV to VDDmin; and during the VDD voltage ramp, |VDD-VDDQ| ≦ 0.3V
- VDD, VDDL and VDDQ are driven from a single power converter output, AND
- VTT is limited to 0.95 V max, AND
- VREF tracks VDDQ/2.
or
- Apply VDD before or at the same time as VDDL.
- Apply VDDL before or at the same time as VDDQ.
- Apply VDDQ before or at the same time as VTT & VREF.
At least one of these two sets of conditions must be met.
2. Start clock and maintain stable condition.
3. For the minimum of 200µs after stable power and clock (CK, CK#), then apply NOP or deselect and take
CKE HIGH.
4. Wait minimum of 400ns then issue precharge all command. NOP or deselect applied during 400ns period.
5. Issue EMRS (2) command. (To issue EMRS (2) command, provide “LOW” to BA0, “HIGH” to BA1.)
6. Issue EMRS (3) command. (To issue EMRS (3) command, provide “HIGH” to BA0 and BA1.)
7. Issue EMRS to enable DLL. (To issue "DLL Enable" command, provide "LOW" to A0, "HIGH" to BA0 and
"LOW" to BA1.)
8. Issue a Mode Register Set command for “DLL reset”.
(To issue DLL reset command, provide "HIGH" to A8 and "LOW" to BA0-1)
9. Issue precharge all command.
10. Issue 2 or more auto-refresh commands.
11. Issue a mode register set command with LOW to A8 to initialize device operation. (i.e. to program
operating
parameters without resetting the DLL.
12. At least 200 clocks after step 8, execute OCD Calibration (Off Chip Driver impedance adjustment).If OCD
calibration is not used, EMRS OCD Default command (A9=A8= A7=HIGH) followed by EMRS OCD
calibration Mode Exit command (A9=A8=A7=LOW) must be issued with other operating parameters of
EMRS.
13. The DDR2 SDRAM is now ready for normal operation.
NOTE 1: To guarantee ODT off, VREF must be valid and a LOW level must be applied to the ODT pin.

z Mode Register Set(MRS)
The mode register stores the data for controlling the various operating modes of DDR2 SDRAM. It controls
CAS# latency, burst length, burst sequence, test mode, DLL reset, WR, and various vendor specific options
to make DDR2 SDRAM useful for various applications.The default value of the mode register is not defined,
therefore the mode register must be programmed during initialization for proper operation. The mode
register is written by asserting LOW on CS#, RAS#, CAS#, WE#, BA0 and BA1, while controlling the state
of address pins A0 - A12. The DDR2 SDRAM should be in all bank precharge state with CKE already HIGH
prior to writing into the mode register.The mode register set command cycle time (tMRD) is required to
complete the write operation to the mode register. The mode register contents can be changed using the
same command and clock cycle requirements during normal operation as long as all bank are in the
precharge state.The mode register is divided into various fields depending on functionality.
- Burst Length Field (A2, A1, A0)
This field specifies the data length of column access and selects the Burst Length.
- Addressing Mode Select Field (A3)
The Addressing Mode can be Interleave Mode or Sequential Mode. Both Sequential Mode and Interleave
Mode support burst length of 4 and 8.
-CAS# Latency Field (A6, A5, A4)
This field specifies the number of clock cycles from the assertion of the Read command to the first read
data. The minimum whole value of CAS# Latency depends on the frequency of CK. The minimum whole
value satisfying the following formula must be programmed into this field.
tCAC(min) ≦ CAS# Latency X tCK
- Test Mode field: A7; DLL Reset Mode field: A8
These two bits must be programmed to "00" in normal operation.
-

Note 1:.For DDR2-533/667/800, WR min is determined by tCK (avg) max and WR max is determined by tCK(avg) min. WR
[cycles] = RU {tWR[ns]/tCK(avg)[ns]}, where RU stands for round up. The mode register must be programmed to this
value.This is also used with tRP to determine tDAL.

z Extended Mode Register Set (EMRS )
- EMR(1)
The extended mode register(1) stores the data for enabling or disabling the DLL, output driver strength,
ODT value selection and additive latency. The default value of the extended mode register is not defined,
therefore the extended mode register must be written after power-up for proper operation. The extended
mode register is written by asserting LOW on CS#, RAS#, CAS#, WE# and HIGH on BA0, while controlling
the states of address pins A0 ~ A12. The DDR2 SDRAM should be in all bank precharge with CKE already
HIGH prior to writing into the extended mode register. The mode register set command cycle time (tMRD)
must be satisfied to complete the write operation to the extended mode register. Mode register contents
can be changed using the same command and clock cycle requirements during normal operation as long
as all banks are in the precharge state. A0 is used for DLL enable or disable. A1 is used for enabling a half
strength data-output driver. A3~A5 determine the additive latency, A2 and A6 are used for ODT value
selection, A7~A9 are used for OCD control, A10 is used for DQS# disable.
- DLL Enable/Disable
The DLL must be enabled for normal operation. DLL enable is required during power up initialization, and
upon returning to normal operation after having the DLL disabled. The DLL is automatically disabled when
entering self refresh operation and is automatically re-enabled upon exit of self refresh operation. Any time
the DLL is enabled (and subsequently reset), 200 clock cycles must occur before a Read command can be
issued to allow time for the internal clock to be synchronized with the external clock. Failing to wait for
synchronization to occur may result in a violation of the tAC or tDQSCK parameters.

The extended mode register (2) controls refresh related features. The default value of the extended mode
register (2) is not defined, therefore the extended mode register (2) must be written after power-up for
proper operation. The extended mode register(2) is written by asserting LOW on CS#, RAS#, CAS#, WE#,
HIGH on BA1 and LOW on BA0, while controlling the states of address pins A0 ~ A12. The DDR2 SDRAM
should be in all bank precharge with CKE already HIGH prior to writing into the extended mode register (2).
The mode register set command cycle time (tMRD) must be satisfied to complete the write operation to the
extended mode register (2). Mode register contents can be changed using the same command and clock
cycle requirements during normal operation as long as all banks are in the precharge state.

- Extended mode register for OCD impedance adjustment
OCD impedance adjustment can be done using the following EMRS mode. In drive mode all outputs are
driven out by DDR2 SDRAM. In Drive (1) mode, all DQ, DQS signals are driven HIGH and all DQS#
signals are driven LOW. In Drive (0) mode, all DQ, DQS signals are driven LOW and all DQS# signals are
drive HIGH. In adjust mode, BL = 4 of operation code data must be used. In case of OCD calibration
default, output driver characteristics have a nominal impedance value of 18 Ohms during nominal
temperature and voltage conditions. Output driver characteristics for OCD calibration default are specified
in the following table. OCD applies only to normal full strength output drive setting defined by EMRS and if
half strength is set, OCD default driver characteristics are not applicable. When OCD calibration adjust
mode is used, OCD default output driver characteristics are not applicable. After OCD calibration is
completed or driver strength is set to default, subsequent EMRS commands not intended to adjust OCD
characteristics must specify A7~A9 as ’000’ in order to maintain the default or calibrated value.

- OCD impedance adjust
To adjust output driver impedance, controllers must issue the ADJUST EMRS command along with a 4bit
burst code to DDR2 SDRAM as in the following table. For this operation, Burst Length has to be set to BL =
4 via MRS command before activating OCD and controllers must drive this burst code to all DQs at the
same time. DT0 in the following table means all DQ bits at bit time 0, DT1 at bit time 1, and so forth. The
driver output impedance is adjusted for all DDR2 SDRAM DQs simultaneously and after OCD calibration,
all DQs of a given DDR2 SDRAM will be adjusted to the same driver strength setting.
The maximum step count for adjustment is 16 and when the limit is reached, further increment or
decrement code has no effect. The default setting maybe any step within the 16 step range. When Adjust
mode command is issued, AL from previously set value must be applied.

z ODT (On Die Termination)
On Die Termination (ODT) is a feature that allows a DRAM to turn on/off termination resistance for each DQ,
UDQS/UDQS#, LDQS/LDQS#, UDM, and LDM signal via the ODT control pin. The ODT feature is designed
to improve signal integrity of the memory channel by allowing the DRAM controller to independently turn
on/off termination resistance for any or all DRAM devices.
The ODT function is supported for ACTIVE and STANDBY modes. It is turned off and not supported in SELF
REFRESH mode.

z Bank activate command
The Bank Activate command is issued by holding CAS# and WE# HIGH with CS# and RAS# LOW at the
rising edge of the clock. The bank addresses BA0 and BA1 are used to select the desired bank. The row
addresses A0 through A11 are used to determine which row to activate in the selected bank. The Bank
Activate command must be applied before any Read or Write operation can be executed. Immediately after
the bank active command, the DDR2 SDRAM can accept a read or write command (with or without AutoPrecharge) on the following clock cycle. If a R/W command is issued to a bank that has not satisfied the
tRCDmin specification, then additive latency must be programmed into the device to delay the R/W command
which is internally issued to the device. The additive latency value must be chosen to assure tRCDmin is
satisfied. Additive latencies of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 are supported. Once a bank has been activated it must be
precharged before another Bank Activate command can be applied to the same bank. The bank active and
precharge times are defined as tRAS and tRP, respectively. The minimum time interval between successive
Bank Activate commands to the same bank is determined (tRC). The minimum time interval between Bank
Active commands is tRRD
z Read and Write access modes
After a bank has been activated, a Read or Write cycle can be executed. This is accomplished by setting
RAS# HIGH, CS# and CAS# LOW at the clock’s rising edge. WE# must also be defined at this time to
determine whether the access cycle is a Read operation (WE# HIGH) or a Write operation (WE# LOW). The
DDR2 SDRAM provides a fast column access operation. A single Read or Write Command will initiate a
serial Read or Write operation on successive clock cycles. The boundary of the burst cycle is strictly
restricted to specific segments of the page length. Any system or application incorporating random access
memory products should be properly designed, tested, and qualified to ensure proper use or access of such
memory products. Disproportionate, excessive, and/or repeated access to a particular address or addresses
may result in reduction of product life.
z Posted CAS#
Posted CAS# operation is supported to make command and data bus efficient for sustainable bandwidths in
DDR2 SDRAM. In this operation, the DDR2 SDRAM allows a CAS# Read or Write command to be issued
immediately after the RAS bank activate command (or any time during the RAS# -CAS#-delay time, tRCD,
period). The command is held for the time of the Additive Latency (AL) before it is issued inside the device.
The Read Latency (RL) is controlled by the sum of AL and the CAS# latency (CL). Therefore if a user
chooses to issue a R/W command before the tRCDmin, then AL (greater than 0) must be written into the
EMR(1). The Write Latency (WL) is always defined as RL - 1 (Read Latency -1) where Read Latency is
defined as the sum of additive latency plus CAS# latency (RL=AL+CL). Read or Write operations using AL
allow seamless bursts.
z Burst Mode Operation
Burst mode operation is used to provide a constant flow of data to memory locations (Write cycle), or from
memory locations (Read cycle). The parameters that define how the burst mode will operate are burst
sequence and burst length. The DDR2 SDRAM supports 4 bit and 8 bit burst modes only. For 8 bit burst
mode, full interleave address ordering is supported, however, sequential address ordering is nibble based
for ease of implementation. The burst length is programmable and defined by the addresses A0 ~ A2 of the
MRS. The burst type, either sequential or interleaved, is programmable and defined by the address bit 3 (A3)
of the MRS. Seamless burst Read or Write operations are supported. Interruption of a burst Read or Write
operation is prohibited, when burst length = 4 is programmed. For burst interruption of a Read or Write burst
when burst length = 8 is used. A Burst Stop command is not supported on DDR2 SDRAM devices.

z Burst read command
The Burst Read command is initiated by having CS# and CAS# LOW while holding RAS# and WE# HIGH
at the rising edge of the clock. The address inputs determine the starting column address for the burst. The
delay from the start of the command to when the data from the first cell appears on the outputs is equal to
the value of the Read Latency (RL). The data strobe output (DQS) is driven LOW 1 clock cycle before valid
data (DQ) is driven onto the data bus. The first bit of the burst is synchronized with the rising edge of the
data strobe (DQS). Each subsequent data-out appears on the DQ pin in phase with the DQS signal in a
source synchronous manner. The RL is equal to an additive latency (AL) plus CAS# Latency (CL). The CL
is defined by the Mode Register Set (MRS), similar to the existing SDR and DDR SDRAMs. The AL is
defined by the Extended Mode Register Set (1) (EMRS (1)).
DDR2 SDRAM pin timings are specified for either single ended mode or differential mode depending on the
setting of the EMRS “Enable DQS” mode bit; timing advantages of differential mode are realized in system
design. The method by which the DDR2 SDRAM pin timings are measured is mode dependent. In single
ended mode, timing relationships are measured relative to the rising or falling edges of DQS crossing at
VREF. In differential mode, these timing relationships are measured relative to the crosspoint of DQS and its
complement, DQS#. This distinction in timing methods is guaranteed by design and characterization. Note
that when differential data strobe mode is disabled via the EMRS, the complementary pin, DQS#, must be
tied externally to VSS through a 20 Ω to 10 KΩresistor to insure proper operation.
z Burst write operation
The Burst Write command is initiated by having CS#, CAS# and WE# LOW while holding RAS# HIGH at
the rising edge of the clock. The address inputs determine the starting column address. Write latency (WL)
is defined by a Read latency (RL) minus one and is equal to (AL + CL -1);and is the number of clocks of
delay that are required from the time the Write command is registered to the clock edge associated to the
first DQS strobe. A data strobe signal (DQS) should be driven LOW (preamble) one clock prior to the WL.
The first data bit of the burst cycle must be applied to the DQ pins at the first rising edge of the DQS
following the preamble. The tDQSS specification must be satisfied for each positive DQS transition to its
associated clock edge during write cycles.
The subsequent burst bit data are issued on successive edges of the DQS until the burst length is
completed, which is 4 or 8 bit burst. When the burst has finished, any additional data supplied to the DQ
pins will be ignored. The DQ Signal is ignored after the burst write operation is complete. The time from the
completion of the burst Write to bank precharge is the write recovery time (WR). DDR2 SDRAM pin timings
are specified for either single ended mode or differential mode depending on the setting of the EMRS
“Enable DQS” mode bit; timing advantages of differential mode are realized in system design. The method
by which the DDR2 SDRAM pin timings are measured is mode dependent.In single ended mode, timing
relationships are measured relative to the rising or falling edges of DQS crossing at the specified AC/DC
levels. In differential mode, these timing relationships are measured relative to the crosspoint of DQS and
its complement, DQS#. This distinction in timing methods is guaranteed by design and characterization.
Note that when differential data strobe mode is disabled via the EMRS, the complementary pin, DQS#,
must be tied externally to VSS through a 20Ω to 10KΩ resistor to insure proper operation.

z Write data mask
One Write data mask (DM) pin for each 8 data bits (DQ) will be supported on DDR2 SDRAMs, Consistent
with the implementation on DDR SDRAMs. It has identical timings on Write operations as the data bits, and
though used in a uni-directional manner, is internally loaded identically to data bits to insure matched
system timing. DM is not used during read cycles.
z Precharge operation
The Precharge command is used to precharge or close a bank that has been activated. The Precharge
Command is triggered when CS#, RAS# and WE# are LOW and CAS# is HIGH at the rising edge of the
clock. The Precharge Command can be used to precharge each bank independently or all banks
simultaneously. Three address bits A10, BA1, and BA0 are used to define which bank to precharge when
the command is issued.

z Burst read operation followed by precharge
Minimum Read to precharge command spacing to the same bank = AL + BL/2 + max (RTP, 2) - 2 clocks.
For the earliest possible precharge, the precharge command may be issued on the rising edge which
“Additive latency (AL) + BL/2 clocks” after a Read command. A new bank active (command) may be issued
to the same bank after the RAS# precharge time (tRP). A precharge command cannot be issued until tRAS is
satisfied.
The minimum Read to Precharge spacing has also to satisfy a minimum analog time from the rising clock
edge that initiates the last 4-bit prefetch of a Read to Precharge command. This time is called tRTP (Read to
Precharge). For BL = 4 this is the time from the actual read (AL after the Read command) to Precharge
command. For BL = 8 this is the time from AL + 2 clocks after the Read to the Precharge command.
z Burst Write operation followed by precharge
Minimum Write to Precharge command spacing to the same bank = WL + BL/2 + tWR. For write cycles, a
delay must be satisfied from the completion of the last burst write cycle until the Precharge command can
be issued. This delay is known as a write recovery time (tWR) referenced from the completion of the burst
write to the Precharge command. No Precharge command should be issued prior to the tWR delay, as
DDR2 SDRAM does not support any burst interrupt by a Precharge command. tWR is an analog timing
parameter and is not the programmed value for tWR in the MRS.
z Auto precharge operation
Before a new row in an active bank can be opened, the active bank must be precharged using either the
Precharge Command or the auto-precharge function. When a Read or a Write Command is given to the
DDR2 SDRAM, the CAS# timing accepts one extra address, column address A10, to allow the active bank to
automatically begin precharge at the earliest possible moment during the burst read or write cycle. If A10 is
LOW when the READ or WRITE Command is issued, then normal Read or Write burst operation is executed
and the bank remains active at the completion of the burst sequence. If A10 is HIGH when the Read or Write
Command is issued, then the auto-precharge function is engaged. During auto-precharge, a Read Command
will execute as normal with the exception that the active bank will begin to precharge on the rising edge which
is CAS# latency clock cycles before the end of the read burst. Auto-precharge also be implemented during
Write commands.The precharge operation engaged by the Auto precharge command will not begin until the
last data of the burst write sequence is properly stored in the memory array. This feature allows the
precharge operation to be partially or completely hidden during burst Read cycles (dependent upon CAS#
latency) thus improving system performance for random data access. The RAS# lockout circuit internally
delays the Precharge operation until the array restore operation has been completed (tRAS satisfied) so that
the auto precharge command may be issued with any Read or Write command.

z Burst read with auto precharge
If A10 is HIGH when a Read Command is issued, the Read with Auto-Precharge function is engaged. The
DDR2 SDRAM starts an Auto-Precharge operation on the rising edge which is (AL + BL/2) cycles later from
the Read with AP command if tRAS(min) and tRTP are satisfied. If tRAS(min) is not satisfied at the edge, the
start point of Auto-Precharge operation will be delayed until tRAS(min) is satisfied. If tRTP(min) is not satisfied
at the edge, the start point of Auto-precharge operation will be delayed until tRTP(min) is satisfied.
In case the internal precharge is pushed out by tRTP, tRP starts at the point where the internal precharge
happens (not at the next rising clock edge after this event). So for BL = 4 the minimum time from Read with
Auto-Precharge to the next Activate command becomes AL + tRTP + tRP. For BL = 8 the time from Read with
Auto-Precharge to the next Activate command is AL + 2 + tRTP + tRP. Note that both parameters tRTP and tRP
have to be rounded up to the next integer value. In any event internal precharge does not start earlier than
two clocks after the last 4-bit prefetch.
A new bank active (command) may be issued to the same bank if the following two conditions are satisfied
simultaneously:
(1) The RAS# precharge time (tRP) has been satisfied from the clock at which the Auto-Precharge begins.
(2) The RAS# cycle time (tRC) from the previous bank activation has been satisfied.
z Burst write with auto precharge
If A10 is HIGH when a Write Command is issued, the Write with Auto-Precharge function is engaged. The
DDR2 SDRAM automatically begins precharge operation after the completion of the burst write plus Write
recovery time (tWR). The bank undergoing auto-precharge from the completion of the write burst may be
reactivated if the following two conditions are satisfied.
(1) The data-in to bank activate delay time (WR + tRP) has been satisfied.
(2) The RAS# cycle time (tRC) from the previous bank activation has been satisfied.

z Refresh command
When CS#, RAS# and CAS# are held LOW and WE# HIGH at the rising edge of the clock, the chip enters
the Refresh mode (REF). All banks of the DDR2 SDRAM must be precharged and idle for a minimum of
the Precharge time (tRP) before the Refresh command (REF) can be applied. An address counter, internal
to the device, supplies the bank address during the refresh cycle. No control of the external address bus is
required once this cycle has started.
When the refresh cycle has completed, all banks of the DDR2 SDRAM will be in the precharged (idle) state.
A delay between the Refresh command (REF) and the next Activate command or subsequent Refresh
command must be greater than or equal to the Refresh cycle time (tRFC).To allow for improved efficiency in
scheduling and switching between tasks, some flexibility in the absolute refresh interval is provided. A
maximum of eight Refresh commands can be posted to any given DDR2 SDRAM, meaning that the
maximum absolute interval between any Refresh command and the next Refresh command is 9 * tREFI.
z Self refresh operation
The Self Refresh command can be used to retain data in the DDR2 SDRAM, even if the rest of the system
is powered down. When in the Self Refresh mode, the DDR2 SDRAM retains data without external clocking.
The DDR2 SDRAM device has a built-in timer to accommodate Self Refresh operation. The Self Refresh
Command is defined by having CS#, RAS#, CAS# and CKE# held LOW with WE# HIGH at the rising edge
of the clock. ODT must be turned off before issuing Self Refresh command, by either driving ODT pin LOW
or using EMRS command. Once the Command is registered, CKE must be held LOW to keep the device in
Self Refresh mode. The DLL is automatically disabled upon entering Self Refresh and is automatically
enabled upon exiting Self Refresh. When the DDR2 SDRAM has entered Self Refresh mode all of the
external signals except CKE, are “don’t care”. For proper Self Refresh operation all power supply pins (VDD,
VDDQ, VDDL and VREF) must be at valid levels. The DRAM initiates a minimum of one refresh command
internally within tCKE period once it enters Self Refresh mode. The clock is internally disabled during Self
Refresh Operation to save power. The minimum time that the DDR2 SDRAM must remain in Self Refresh
mode is tCKE. The user may change the external clock frequency or halt the external clock one clock after
Self Refresh entry is registered, however, the clock must be restarted and stable before the device can exit
Self Refresh operation.
The procedure for exiting Self Refresh requires a sequence of commands. First, the clock must be stable
prior to CKE going back HIGH. Once Self Refresh Exit is registered, a delay of at least tXSNR must be
satisfied before a valid command can be issued to the device to allow for any internal refresh in progress.
CKE must remain HIGH for the entire Self Refresh exit period tXSRD for proper operation except for Self
Refresh re-entry. Upon exit from Self Refresh, the DDR2 SDRAM can be put back into Self Refresh mode
after waiting at least tXSNR period and issuing one refresh command(refresh period of tRFC). NOP or deselect
commands must be registered on each positive clock edge during the Self Refresh exit interval tXSNR. ODT
should be turned off during tXSRD.
The use of Self Refresh mode introduces the possibility that an internally timed refresh event can be
missed when CKE is raised for exit from Self Refresh mode. Upon exit from Self Refresh, the DDR2
SDRAM requires a minimum of one extra auto refresh command before it is put back into Self Refresh
mode.

z Power-Down
Power-down is synchronously entered when CKE is registered LOW along with NOP or Deselect command.
No read or write operation may be in progress when CKE goes LOW. These operations are any of the
following: read burst or write burst and recovery. CKE is allowed to go LOW while any of other operations
such as row activation, precharge or autoprecharge, mode register or extended mode register command
time, or autorefresh is in progress.
The DLL should be in a locked state when power-down is entered. Otherwise DLL should be reset after
exiting power-down mode for proper read operation.
If power-down occurs when all banks are precharged, this mode is referred to as Precharge Power-down; if
power-down occurs when there is a row active in any bank, this mode is referred to as Active Power-down.
For
Active Power-down two different power saving modes can be selected within the MRS register,
address bit A12. When A12 is set to “LOW” this mode is referred as “standard active power-down mode”
and a fast power-down exit timing defined by the tXARD timing parameter can be used. When A12 is set to
“HIGH” this mode is referred as a power saving “LOW power active power-down mode”. This mode takes
longer to exit from the power-down mode and the tXARDS timing parameter has to be satisfied. Entering
power-down deactivates the input and output buffers, excluding CK, CK#, ODT and CKE. Also the DLL is
disabled upon entering precharge power-down or slow exit active power-down, but the DLL is kept enabled
during fast exit active power-down. In power-down mode, CKE LOW and a stable clock signal must be
maintained at the inputs of the DDR2 SDRAM, and all other input signals are “Don’t Care”. Power-down
duration is limited by 9 times tREFI of the device.
The power-down state is synchronously exited when CKE is registered HIGH (along with a NOP or
Deselect command). A valid, executable command can be applied with power-down exit latency, tXP, tXARD
or tXARDS, after CKE goes HIGH. Power-down exit latencies are defined in the AC spec table of this data
sheet.
z Asynchronous CKE LOW Event
DRAM requires CKE to be maintained “HIGH” for all valid operations as defined in this datasheet. If CKE
asynchronously drops “LOW” during any valid peration DRAM is not guaranteed to preserve the contents of
array. If this event occurs, memory controller must satisfy DRAM timing specification tDelay efore turning
off the clocks. Stable clocks must exist at the input of DRAM before CKE is raised “HIGH” again. DRAM
must be fully re-initialized. DRAM is ready for normal operation after the initialization sequence.
z Input clock frequency change during precharge power down
DDR2 SDRAM input clock frequency can be changed under following condition: DDR2 SDRAM is in
precharged power down mode. ODT must be turned off and CKE must be at logic LOW level. A minimum
of 2 clocks must be waited after CKE goes LOW before clock frequency may change. SDRAM input clock
frequency is allowed to change only within minimum and maximum operating frequency specified for the
particular speed grade. During input clock frequency change, ODT and CKE must be held at stable LOW
levels. Once input clock frequency is changed, stable new clocks must be provided to DRAM before
precharge power down may be exited and DLL must be RESET via EMRS after precharge power down exit.
Depending on new clock frequency an additional MRS command may need to be issued to appropriately
set the WR, CL etc. During DLL re-lock period, ODT must remain off. After the DLL lock time, the DRAM is
ready to operate with new clock frequency.
z No operation command
The No Operation Command should be used in cases when the DDR2 SDRAM is in an idle or a wait state.
The purpose of the No Operation Command (NOP) is to prevent the DDR2 SDRAM from registering any
unwanted commands between operations. A No Operation Command is registered when CS# is LOW with
RAS#, CAS#, and WE# held HIGH at the rising edge of the clock. A No Operation Command will not
terminate a previous operation that is still executing, such as a burst read or write cycle.
z Deselect command
The Deselect Command performs the same function as a No Operation Command. Deselect Command
occurs when CS# is brought HIGH at the rising edge of the clock, the RAS#, CAS#, and WE# signals
become don’t cares.

General notes, which may apply for all AC parameters:
NOTE 1: DDR2 SDRAM AC timing reference load
The below figure represents the timing reference load used in defining the relevant timing parameters of
the part. It is not intended to be either a precise representation of the typical system environment or a
depiction of the actual load presented by a production tester.

Timing reference
point
The output timing reference voltage level for single ended signals is the crosspoint with VTT. The output
timing reference voltage level for differential signals is the crosspoint of the true (e.g. DQS) and the
complement (e.g. DQS#) signal.
NOTE 2: Slew Rate Measurement Levels
a) Output slew rate for falling and rising edges is measured between VTT - 250 mV and VTT + 250 mV for
single ended signals. For differential signals (e.g. DQS – DQS#) output slew rate is measured between
DQS – DQS# = - 500 mV and DQS – DQS# = + 500 mV. Output slew rate is guaranteed by design, but is
not necessarily tested on each device.
b) Input slew rate for single ended signals is measured from VREF (dc) to VIH (ac), min for rising edges and
from VREF(dc) to VIL(ac),max for falling edges.For differential signals (e.g. CK – CK#) slew rate for rising
edges is measured from CK – CK# = - 250 mV to CK -CK# = + 500 mV (+ 250 mV to - 500 mV for falling
edges).
c) VID is the magnitude of the difference between the input voltage on CK and the input voltage on CK#, or
between DQS and DQS# for differential strobe.

Output slew rate is characterized under the test conditions as bellow

NOTE 4: Differential data strobe
DDR2 SDRAM pin timings are specified for either single ended mode or differential mode depending on
the Setting of the EMRS “Enable DQS” mode bit; timing advantages of differential mode are realized in
system design. The method by which the DDR2 SDRAM pin timings are measured is mode dependent. In
single ended mode, timing relationships are measured relative to the rising or falling edges of DQS
crossing at VREF. In differential mode, these timing relationships are measured relative to the crosspoint of
DQS and its complement, DQS#. This distinction in timing methods is guaranteed by design and
characterization. Note that when differential data strobe mode is disabled via the EMRS, the
complementary pin, DQS#, must be tied externally to VSS through a 20 Ω to 10 kΩ resistor to insure
proper operation.
NOTE 5: AC timings are for linear signal transitions.
NOTE 6:All voltages are referenced to VSS.
NOTE 7: These parameters guarantee device behavior, but they are not necessarily tested on each
device.They may be guaranteed by device design or tester correlation
NOTE 8: Tests for AC timing, IDD, and electrical (AC and DC) characteristics, may be conducted at nominal
reference/supply voltage levels, but the related specifications and device operation are guaranteed for the
full voltage range specified.
Specific notes for dedicated AC parameters
NOTE 1:User can choose which active power down exit timing to use via MRS (bit 12). tXARD is expected to be
used for fast active power down exit timing. tXARDS is expected to be used for slow active power down exit
timing where a lower power value is defined by each vendor data sheet.
NOTE 2: AL=Additive Latency.
NOTE 3:This is a minimum requirement. Minimum read to precharge timing is AL+BL/2 provided that the tRTP
and tRAS (min) have been satisfied.
NOTE 4: A minimum of two clocks (2* tCK) is required irrespective of operating frequency.
NOTE 5: Timings are specified with command/address input slew rate of 1.0 V/ns.
NOTE 6:Timings are specified with DQs, DM, and DQS’s (in single ended mode) input slew rate of 1.0V/ns.
NOTE 7:Timings are specified with CK/CK# differential slew rate of 2.0 V/ns. Timings are guaranteed for DQS
signals with a differential slew rate of 2.0 V/ns in differential strobe mode and a slew rate of 1 V/ns in
single ended mode.
NOTE 8:The maximum limit for this parameter is not a device limit. The device will operate with a greater value
for this parameter, but system performance (bus turnaround) will degrade accordingly.
NOTE 9:MIN (tCL, tCH) refers to the smaller of the actual clock LOW time and the actual clock HIGH time as
provided to the device (i.e. this value can be greater than the minimum specification limits for tCL and tCH).
NOTE 10: tQH = tHP – tQHS, where:
tHP = minimum half clock period for any given cycle and is defined by clock HIGH or clock LOW (tCH, tCL).
tQHS accounts for:
1) The pulse duration distortion of on-chip clock circuits; and
2) The worst case push-out of DQS on one transition followed by the worst case pull-in of DQ on the next
transition, both of which are, separately, due to data pin skew and output pattern effects, and pchannel to n-channel variation of the output drivers.
NOTE 11: tDQSQ: Consists of data pin skew and output pattern effects, and p-channel to n-channel variation of
the output drivers as well as output slew rate mismatch between DQS / DQS# and associated DQ in any
given cycle.
NOTE 12: tDAL = WR + RU{ tRP[ns] / tCK[ns] }, where RU stands for round up.WR refers to the tWR parameter
stored in the MRS. For tRP, if the result of the division is not already an integer, round up to the next
highest integer. tCK refers to the application clock period.
NOTE 13: The clock frequency is allowed to change during self–refresh mode or precharge power-down mode.
In case of clock frequency change during precharge power-down.

NOTE 14: ODT turn on time min is when the device leaves high impedance and ODT resistance begins to turn
on. ODT turn on time max is when the ODT resistance is fully on. Both are measured from tAOND, which is
interpreted differently per speed bin. For DDR2-533, tAOND is 10 ns (= 2 x 5 ns) after the clock edge that
registered a first ODT HIGH if tCK = 5 ns. For DDR2-667/800, tAOND is 2 clock cycles after the clock edge
that registered a first ODT HIGH counting the actual input clock edges.
NOTE 15: ODT turn off time min is when the device starts to turn off ODT resistance. ODT turn off time max is
when the bus is in high impedance. Both are measured from tAOFD, which is interpreted differently per
speed bin. For DDR2-533, tAOFD is 12.5 ns (= 2.5 x 5 ns) after the clock edge that registered a first ODT
LOW if tCK = 5 ns. For DDR2-667/800, if tCK(avg) = 3 ns is assumed, tAOFD is 1.5 ns (= 0.5 x 3 ns) after the
second trailing clock edge counting from the clock edge that registered a first ODT LOW and by counting
the actual input clock edges.
NOTE 16: tHZ and tLZ transitions occur in the same access time as valid data transitions. These parameters are
referenced to a specific voltage level which specifies when the device output is no longer driving (tHZ), or
begins driving (tLZ).
NOTE 17: tRPST end point and tRPRE begin point are not referenced to a specific voltage level but specify when
the device output is no longer driving (tRPST), or begins driving (tRPRE). The actual voltage measurement
points are not critical as long as the calculation is consistent.
NOTE 18: Input waveform timing tDS with differential data strobe enabled MR[bit10]=0, is referenced from the
input signal crossing at the VIH(ac) level to the differential data strobe crosspoint for a rising signal, and
from the input signal crossing at the VIL(ac) level to the differential data strobe crosspoint for a falling
signal applied to the device under test. DQS, DQS# signals must be monotonic between VIL(dc)max and
VIH(dc)min.
NOTE 19: Input waveform timing tDH with differential data strobe enabled MR [bit10] =0, is referenced from the
differential data strobe crosspoint to the input signal crossing at the VIH (dc) level for a falling signal and
from the differential data strobe crosspoint to the input signal crossing at the VIL(dc) level for a rising
signal applied to the device under test. DQS, DQS# signals must be monotonic between VIL (dc) max and
VIH (dc) min.
NOTE 20: Input waveform timing is referenced from the input signal crossing at the VIH (ac) level for a rising
signal and VIL (ac) for a falling signal applied to the device under test.
NOTE 21: Input waveform timing is referenced from the input signal crossing at the VIL (dc) level for a rising
signal and VIH (dc) for a falling signal applied to the device under test.
NOTE 22: tWTR is at lease two clocks (2 x tCK ) independent of operation frequency.
NOTE 23: tCKEmin of 3 clocks means CKE must be registered on three consecutive positive clock edges. CKE
must remain at the valid input level the entire time it takes to achieve the 3 clocks of registration. Thus,
after any CKE transition, CKE may not transition from its valid level during the time period of tIS + 2 x tCK +
tIH.
NOTE 24: If tDS or tDH is violated, data corruption may occur and the data must be re-written with valid data
before a valid READ can be executed.
NOTE 25: These parameters are measured from a command/address signal (CKE, CS#, RAS#, CAS#, WE#,
ODT, BA0, A0, A1, etc.) transition edge to its respective clock signal (CK/CK#) crossing. The spec values
are not affected by the amount of clock jitter applied (i.e. tJIT(per), tJIT(cc), etc.), as the setup and hold are
relative to the clock signal crossing that latches the command/address. That is, these parameters should
be met whether clock jitter is present or not.
NOTE 26: These parameters are measured from a data strobe signal (LDQS/UDQS) crossing to its respective
clock signal (CK/CK#) crossing. The spec values are not affected by the amount of clock jitter applied (i.e.
tJIT(per), tJIT(cc), etc.), as these are relative to the clock signal crossing. That is, these parameters should
be met whether clock jitter is present or not.
NOTE 27: These parameters are measured from a data signal ((L/U) DM, (L/U) DQ0, (L/U) DQ1, etc.)
transition edge to its respective data strobe signal (LDQS/UDQS/LDQS#/UDQS#) crossing.
NOTE 28: For these parameters, the DDR2 SDRAM device is characterized and verified to support tnPARAM
= RU{tPARAM / tCK(avg)}, which is in clock cycles, assuming all input clock jitter specifications are
satisfied.

NOTE 33: tHP is the minimum of the absolute half period of the actual input clock. tHP is an input parameter but
not an input specification parameter. It is used in conjunction with tQHS to derive the DRAM output timing
tQH. The value to be used for tQH calculation is determined by the following equation;
tHP = Min ( tCH(abs), tCL(abs) ),
where,
tCH(abs) is the minimum of the actual instantaneous clock HIGH time;
tCL(abs) is the minimum of the actual instantaneous clock LOW time;
NOTE 34: tQHS accounts for:
1) The pulse duration distortion of on-chip clock circuits, which represents how well the actual tHP at the
input is transferred to the output; and
2) The worst case push-out of DQS on one transition followed by the worst case pull-in of DQ on the next
transition, both of which are independent of each other, due to data pin skew, output pattern effects,
and p-channel to n-channel variation of the output drivers

NOTE 35: tQH = tHP – tQHS, where: tHP is the minimum of the absolute half period of the actual input clock; and
tQHS is the specification value under the max column. {The less half-pulse width distortion present, the
larger the tQH value is; and the larger the valid data eye will be.}
NOTE 36: When the device is operated with input clock jitter, this parameter needs to be derated by the actual
tERR(6-10per) of the input clock. (output deratings are relative to the SDRAM input clock.)
NOTE 37: When the device is operated with input clock jitter, this parameter needs to be derated by the actual
tJIT(per) of the input clock. (output deratings are relative to the SDRAM input clock.)
NOTE 38: When the device is operated with input clock jitter, this parameter needs to be derated by the actual
tJIT(duty) of the input clock. (output deratings are relative to the SDRAM input clock.)
NOTE 39: When the device is operated with input clock jitter, this parameter needs to be derated by { tJIT(duty),max - tERR(6-10per),max } and { - tJIT(duty),min - tERR(6-10per),min } of the actual input clock.
(output deratings are relative to the SDRAM input clock.)
NOTE 40: For tAOFD of DDR2-533, the 1/2 clock of tCK in the 2.5 x tCK assumes a tCH, input clock HIGH pulse
width of 0.5 relative to tCK. tAOF,min and tAOF,max should each be derated by the same amount as the
actual amount of tCH offset present at the DRAM input with respect to 0.5.
NOTE 41: For tAOFD of DDR2-667/800, the 1/2 clock of tCK in the 2.5 x tCK assumes a tCH(avg), average input
clock HIGH pulse width of 0.5 relative to tCK(avg). tAOF,min and tAOF,max should each be derated by the
same amount as the actual amount of tCH(avg) offset present at the DRAM input with respect to 0.5.

NOTE 1: To prevent any impedance glitch on the channel, the following conditions must be met:
- tAOFD must be met before issuing the EMRS command.
- ODT must remain LOW for the entire duration of tMOD window, until tMOD, max is met.
then the ODT is ready for normal operation with the new setting, and the ODT signal may be raised again to turned
on the ODT.
NOTE 2: EMRS command directed to EMR(1), which updates the information in EMR(1)[A6,A2], i.e. Rtt (Nominal).
NOTE 3: "setting" in this diagram is the Register and I/O setting, not what is measured from outside.

NOTE 1: Read burst interrupt function is only allowed on burst of 8. Burst interrupt of 4 is prohibited.
NOTE 2: Read burst of 8 can only be interrupted by another Read command. Read burst interruption by Write
command or Precharge command is prohibited.
NOTE 3: Read burst interrupt must occur exactly two clocks after previous Read command. Any other Read burst
interrupt timings are prohibited.
NOTE 4: Read burst interruption is allowed to any bank inside DRAM.
NOTE 5: Read burst with Auto Precharge enabled is not allowed to interrupt.
NOTE 6: Read burst interruption is allowed by another Read with Auto Precharge command.
NOTE 7: All command timings are referenced to burst length set in the mode register. They are not referenced to
actual burst. For example, Minimum Read to Precharge timing is AL+BL/2 where BL is the burst length set in the
mode register and not the actual burst (which is shorter because of interrupt).

NOTE : The minimum number of clock from the burst write command to the burst read command is [CL-1 + BL/2 + tWTR].
This tWTR is not a write recovery time (tWR) but the time required to transfer the 4 bit write data from the input buffer into
sense amplifiers in the array. tWTR is defined in the timing parameter table of this standard.
