22 Mode Register Setting Operation
The device has several modes:
Asynchronous Page Read mode
Asynchronous Write mode
Synchronous Burst Read mode
Synchronous Burst Write mode
Standby mode
Partial Array Refresh (PAR) mode.
Partial Array Refresh (PAR) mode is defined through the Mode Register Set (MRS) option. The MRS
option also defines burst length, burst type, wait polarity and latency count at synchronous burst
read/write mode.
22.1
Mode Register Set (MRS)
The mode register stores the data for controlling the various operation modes of this device. It
programs Partial Array Refresh (PAR), burst length, burst type, latency count and various vendor
specific options to make pSRAM Type 4 useful for a variety of different applications. The default
values of mode register are defined, therefore when the reserved address is input, the device runs
at default modes.
The mode register is written by driving CS#, ADV#, WE#, UB#, LB# and MRS# to V
IL
and driving
OE# to V
IH
during valid addressing. The mode register is divided into various fields depending on
the fields of functions. The PAR field uses A0~ A4, Burst Length field uses A5~ A7, Burst Type uses
A8, Latency Count uses A9~ A11, Wait Polarity uses A13, Operation Mode uses A14~ A15 and
Driver Strength uses A16~ A17.
Refer to
Table 22.1
for detailed Mode Register Settings. A18~ A22 addresses are
Don’t care
in the
Mode Register Setting.

Note:
DS (Driver Strength), MS (Mode Select), WP (Wait Polarity), Latency (Latency Count), BT (Burst Type), BL (Burst
Length), PAR (Partial Array Refresh), PARA (Partial Array Refresh Array), PARS (Partial Array Refresh Size), RFU (Reserved
for Future Use).
