Negative line of the differential pair of system clock inputs that drives the input to the on-DIMM Clock Driver.
CKE HIGH activates, and CKE LOW deactivates internal clock signals, and device input buffers
and output drivers of the SDRAMs. Taking CKE LOW provides PRECHARGE POWER-DOWN
and SELF REFRESH operation (all banks idle), or ACTIVE POWER DOWN (row ACTIVE in any bank)
Enables the associated SDRAM command decoder when low and disables decoder when high.
When decoder is disabled, new commands are ignored and previous operations continue.
These input signals also disable all outputs (except CKE and ODT) of the register(s) on the DIMM when both
inputs are high. When both S[1:0] are high, all register outputs (except CKE, ODT and Chip select) remain in
the previous state. For modules supporting 4 ranks, S[3:2] operate similarly to S[1:0] for a second set of register outputs.
When sampled at the positive rising edge of the clock, CAS
cuted by the SDRAM.
Selects which SDRAM bank of eight is activated.
BA0 - BA2 define to which bank an Active, Read, Write or Precharge command is being applied. Bank
address also determines mode register is to be accessed during an MRS cycle.
Provided the row address for Active commands and the column address and Auto Precharge bit for Read/
Write commands to select one location out of the memory array in the respective bank. A10 is sampled during a Precharge command to determine whether the Precharge applies to one bank (A10 LOW) or all banks
(A10 HIGH). If only one bank is to be precharged, the bank is selected by BA. A12 is also utilized for BL 4/8
identification for "BL on the fly" during CAS command. The address inputs also provide the op-code during
Mode Register Set commands.
Active High Masks write data when high, issued concurrently with input data.

TDQS/TDQS is applicable for X8 DRAMs only. When enabled via Mode Register A11=1 in MR1, DRAM will
enable the same termination resistance function on TDQS/TDQS
abled via mode register A11=0 in MR1, DM/TDQS will provide the data mask function and TDQS is not used.
X4/X16 DRAMs must disable the TDQS function via mode register A11=0 in MR1
These signals are tied at the system planar to either V
