- Apply VDDQ before VREF & VTT
2. Start clock and maintain stable condition for minimum 200us.
3. The minimum of 200us after stable power and clock(CK,CK ), apply NOP and take CKE to be high .

MODE REGISTER SET(MRS)
The mode register stores the data for controlling the various operating modes of DDR SDRAM. It programs CAS latency,
addressing mode, burst length, test mode, DLL reset and various vendor specific opti ons to make DDR SDRAM useful fo r
variety of different applications. The default value of the mode register is not defined, therefore the mode register must be
written after EMRS setting for proper operation. The mod e register is written by asserting low on CS, RAS, CAS and
WE(The DDR SDRAM should be in active mode with CKE already high prior to writing into the mode register). The state of
address pins A0 ~ A11 and BA0, BA1 in the same cycle as CS, RAS, CAS and WE going low is written in the mode register.
Minimum two clock cycles are requested to complete the write operation in the mode register. The mode register contents
can be changed using the same command and clock cycle requirements during operation as long as all banks are in the
idle state. The mode register is divided into various fi elds depending on functionality. The burst length uses A0 ~ A2,
addressing mode uses A3, CAS latency(read latency from column address) uses A4 ~ A6. A7 is used for test mode. A8 is
used for DLL reset. A
for various burst length, addressing modes and CAS latencies.
7,A8, BA0 and BA1 must be set to low for normal MRS operation. Refer to the table for specific codes
*1 : MRS can be issued only at all banks precharge state.
*2 : Minimum
tRP is required to issue MRS command.

EXTENDED MODE REGISTER SET(EMRS)
The extended mode register stores the data for enabling or disabling DLL and selecting output driver
strength. The default value of the extended mode register is not defined, therefore the extened mode register
must be written after power up for enabling or disabling DLL. The extended mode register is written by asserting low on CS
already high prior to writing into the extended mode register). The stat e of address pins A0, A2 ~ A5 , A7 ~ A11
and BA1 in the same cycle as CS
and A6 are used for setting driver strength to normal, weak or matched impedance. Two clock cycles are
required to complete the write operation in the extended mode register. The mode register contents can be
changed using the same command and clock cycle requirements during operation as long as all banks are in
the idle state. A0 is used for DLL enable or disable. "High" on BA0 is used for EMRS. All the other address
pins except A0,A1,A6 and BA0 must be set to low for proper EMRS operation. Refer to the table for specific
codes.

- The JEDEC DDR specification currently defines the output data valid window(tDV) as the time period when the data
strobe and all data associated with that data strobe are coincidentally valid.
- The previously used definition of tDV(=0.35tCK) artificially penalizes system timing budgets by assuming the worst case
output vaild window even then the clock duty cycle applied to the device is better than 45/55%
- A new AC timing term, tQH which stands for data output hold time from DQS is difined to account for clock duty cycle
variation and replaces tDV
- tQHmin = tHP-X where
. tHP=Minimum half clock period for any given cycle and is defined by clock high or clock low time(tCH,tCL)
