Auto Refresh Command (AREF)
Figure 45
Auto Refresh Command
AREF is used to do a refresh cycle on one row in each
bank. The addresses are generated by an internal
refresh controller; external address pins are “DON’T
CARE”. All banks must be idle before the AREF
command can be applied. The delay between the
AREF command and the next ACT or subsequent
AREF must be at least
t
RFC
(min). The refresh period
starts when the AREF command is entered and ends
t
RFC
later at which time all banks will be in the idle state.
Within a period of
t
REF
=32ms the whole memory has to
be refreshed. The average periodic interval time from
AREF to AREF is then
t
REFI
(max)=7.8μs.
To improve efficiency bursts of AREF commands can
be used. Such bursts may consist of maximum 8 AREF
commands.
t
RFC
(min) is the minimum required time
between two AREF commands inside one AREF burst.
According to the number of AREF commands in one
burst the average required time from one AREF burst
to the next can be increased. Example: If the AREF
bursts consists of 4 AREF commands, the average
time from one AREF burst to the next is 4 * 7.8μs =
31.2μs.
The AREF command generates an update of the OCD
output impedance and of the addresses, commands
and DQ terminations. The timing parameter tKO ( see
section 2.3.2 ) must be complied with.
