Burst Read: In the example in figure 10.15 it is assumed that four 2M × 8-bit synchronous
DRAMs are connected and a 32-bit data width is used, and the burst length is 1. Following the Tr
cycle in which ACTV command output is performed, a READ command is issued in the Tc1, Tc2,
and Tc3 cycles, and a READA command in the Tc4 cycle, and the read data is accepted at the
rising edge of the external command clock (CKIO) from cycle Td1 to cycle Td4. The Tpc cycle is
used to wait for completion of auto-precharge based on the READA command inside the
synchronous DRAM; no new access command can be issued to the same bank during this cycle,
but access to synchronous DRAM for another area is possible. In the SH7709S, the number of Tpc
cycles is determined by the TPC bit specification in MCR, and commands cannot be issued for the
same synchronous DRAM during this interval.
The example in figure 10.14 shows the basic cycle. To connect low-speed synchronous DRAM,
the cycle can be extended by setting WCR2 and MCR bits. The number of cycles from the ACTV
command output cycle, Tr, to the READ command output cycle, Tc1, can be specified by the
RCD bits in MCR, with values of 0 to 3 specifying 1 to 4 cycles, respectively. In case of 2 or more
cycles, a Trw cycle, in which an NOP command is issued for the synchronous DRAM, is inserted
between the Tr cycle and the Tc cycle. The number of cycles from READ and READA command
output cycles Tc1-Tc4 to the first read data latch cycle, Td1, can be specified as 1 to 3 cycles
