12. DDR2-SDRAM Interface (DBSC2)

Rev.1.00 Jan. 10, 2008 Page 515 of 1658

REJ09B0261-0100

command to be issued at time 2 from the following request queue. From the search results it is
seen that advance precharge processing can be executed for the third read (8-byte) request and the
fourth read (16-byte) request. Because the DBSC2 gives priority to preceding requests, it decides
to perform advance precharge processing for the third read (8-byte) request, and issues a PRE
command to the SDRAM.

When the time advances to time 3, the ACT command cannot be issued for the first read (16-byte)
request at time 3 either, and so a search of the following queue is performed for a command which
can be issued. Due to timing constraints, the ACT command cannot be issued for the third read (8-
byte) request, and as a result, issuance of the PRE command corresponding to the fourth read (16-
byte) request is selected.

At time 4, it is possible to execute request processing for the first read (16-byte) request, and an
ACT command is issued to the DDR2-SDRAM.

Thereafter, the processing described above is repeated.

As the burst length is 4 in the DDR2-SDRAM, the interval between READ commands is always two cycles.
