Precharge Power-Down Clock Frequency Change
When the DDR2 SDRAM is in precharge power-down mode, ODT must be turned off
and CKE must be at a logic LOW level. A minimum of two differential clock cycles must
pass after CKE goes LOW before clock frequency may change. The device input clock
frequency is allowed to change only within minimum and maximum operating frequen-
cies specified for the particular speed grade. During input clock frequency change, ODT
and CKE must be held at stable LOW levels. When the input clock frequency is changed,
new stable clocks must be provided to the device before precharge power-down may be
exited, and DLL must be reset via MR after precharge power-down exit. Depending on
the new clock frequency, additional LM commands might be required to adjust the CL,
WR, AL, and so forth. Depending on the new clock frequency, an additional LM com-
mand might be required to appropriately set the WR MR9, MR10, MR11. During the
DLL relock period of 200 cycles, ODT must remain off. After the DLL lock time, the
DRAM is ready to operate with a new clock frequency.

Notes: 1. A minimum of 2 × tCK is required after entering precharge power-down prior to chang-
ing clock frequencies.
2. When the new clock frequency has changed and is stable, a minimum of 1 × tCK is re-
quired prior to exiting precharge power-down.
