6.6.2

Synchronous Static Memory Mode Register Set
Configuration Register (SXMRS)

On power up, a MRS command that contains the default boot-up value is written to the external
memory if the system is configured to boot out of SMROM (see

Section 6.10.2

). Otherwise,

SXMRS, shown in

Table 6-16

, is used to issue an MRS command to SMROM. The value written

in this register is placed directly on address lines MA<24:10> during the MRS command. Writing
to this register triggers a two-stage MRS command that is sent to the external synchronous static
memory. The first state issues an MRS command to banks 0 and 1. The second stage issues an
MRS command to banks 2 and 3. The corresponding chip select values are only asserted if the
memory banks are enabled via the SXCNFG register and the memory type is configured as
SMROM.

To write a new MRS value to a synchronous static memory, first enable and configure the memory
via the SXCNFG register, then write the SXMRS register. This register is only used for the value
written during the MRS command. All values in the SXCNFG register must be programmed
correctly to ensure proper device operation (refer to the external memory chip product
documentation for proper MRS encoding). Information programmed in the SXCNFG[CL] and
