Description
MECC[7:0]
I/O
CMOS
V_3
Memory ECC Data:
These signals carry Memory ECC data
during access to DRAM.
These pins are implemented by design
but not tested on the module.
RASA[5:0]# or
CSA[5:0]#
O
CMOS
V_3
Row Address Strobe (EDO):
These pins select the DRAM row.
Chip Select (SDRAM):
These pins activate the SDRAMs.
SDRAM accepts any command when its CS# pin is active low.
CASA[7:0]# or
DQMA[7:0]
O
CMOS
V_3
Column Address Strobe (EDO):
These pins select the DRAM
column.
Input/Output Data Mask (SDRAM):
These pins act as
synchronized output enables during a read cycle and as a byte
mask during a write cycle.
MAB[9:0]#
MAB[10]
MAB[12:11]#
MAB[13]
O
CMOS
V_3
Memory Address (EDO/SDRAM):
This is the row and column
address for DRAM.
The 443BX Host Bridge/Controller has two
identical sets of address lines (MAA and MAB#). The module
supports only the MAB set of address lines. For additional
addressing features, please refer to the Intel 440BX AGPset
datasheet (Order Number 290633).
MWEA#
O
CMOS
V_3
Memory Write Enable (EDO/SDRAM):
MWEA# should be used
as the write enable for the memory data bus.
SRASA#
O
CMOS
V_3
SDRAM Row Address Strobe (SDRAM):
When active low, this
signal latches Row Address on the positive edge of the clock. This
signal also allows Row access and pre-charge.
SCASA#
O
CMOS
V_3
SDRAM Column Address Strobe (SDRAM):
When active low,
this signal latches Column Address on the positive edge of the
clock.
This signal also allows Column access.
CKE[5:0]
O
CMOS
V_3
SDRAM Clock Enable (SDRAM):
SDRAM clock enable pin.
When these signals are de-asserted, SDRAM enters power-down
mode.
Each row is individually controlled by its own clock enable.
MD[63:0]
I/O
CMOS
V_3
Memory Data:
These signals are connected to the DRAM data
bus. They are not terminated on the module.
NOTES:
1. DQMA signals are non-inverted now. Please refer to the 82443BX Spec Update.
2. MAB[13] is a non-inverted address signal now. Please refer to 82443BX Spec Update.
