Mode Register Definition
Mode Register Set [MRS]
The mode register stores the data for controlling the various operating modes of DDR2 SDRAM. It programs CAS latency, burst
length, burst type, test mode, DLL reset, WR and various vendor specific options to make the device useful for variety of different
applications. The default value of the mode register is not defined, therefore the mode register must be written after Power-Up for
proper operation. The mode register is written by asserting LOW on CS , RAS , CAS , WE , BA0 and BA1 (The device should
be in all bank Precharge with CKE already high prior to writing into the mode register). The state of address pins A0~A12 in the
same cycle as CS , RAS , CAS , WE , BA0 and BA1 going LOW are written in the mode register.
The tMRD time 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 banks are in the idle state. The mode
register is divided into various fields depending on functionality. The burst length is defined by A0 ~ A2. Burst address sequence
type is defined by A3, CAS latency (read latency from column address) is defined by A4 ~ A6. The DDR2 doesn’t support half clock
latency mode. A7 is used for test mode. A8 is used for DLL reset. A7 must be set to low for normal MRS operation. Write recovery
time WR is defined by A9 ~ A11. Refer to the table for specific codes.

“Reserve” are reserved for future use and must be set to 0.
WR(min.) (write recovery for Auto Precharge) is determined by tCK (max.) and WR(max.) is determined by tCK (min.)
WR in clock cycles is calculated by dividing tWR (in ns) by tCK (in ns) and rounding up a non-integer value to the next
integer ( WR[cycles] = tWR (ns)/ tCK (ns)).
The mode register must be programmed to this value. This is also used with tRP to determine tDAL.
