DRAM Control Register

The bit assignments for the DRAM Control Register are:

RAMEN

RAM Enable. This control bit is used to enable the local
bus to perform read/write accesses to the memory.
Accesses are enabled when this bit is set and are disabled
when this bit is cleared. This bit should only be set after
BAD31-BAD22 have been initialized.

Difference from MEMC040: none.

NCEBEN Setting the NCEBEN control bit enables the MCECC pair

to assert TEA* when a non-correctable error occurs
during a local bus access to memory. In some cases setting
NCEBEN causes DRAM accesses to be delayed by one
clock. This delay is incurred when the access is a local bus
(or scrub) read and the FSTRD bit is set.

Difference from MEMC040: bit = PAREN for
MEMC040; bit = NCEBEN for MCECC (both accomplish
basically the same thing, enabling TEA assertion for non-
correctable errors).

NCEIEN

When NCEIEN is set, the logging of a non-correctable
error causes the INT signal pin to pulse true. Note that
NCEIEN has no effect on DRAM access time.

Difference from MEMC040: bit = PARINT for
MEMC040; bit = NCEIEN for MCECC.
