Table 23-8

• COUNT: DDRSDRAMC Refresh Timer Count.

This 12-bit field is loaded into a timer which generates the refresh pulse. Each time the refresh pulse is generated, a refresh
sequence is initiated.

SDRAM devices require a refresh of all rows every 64 ms. The value to be loaded depends on the DDRSDRC clock fre-
quency (MCK: Master Clock) and the number of rows in the device.

For example, for an SDRAM with 8192 rows and a 100 MHz Master clock, the value of Refresh Timer Count bit is pro-
grammed: (((64 x 10

-3

)/8192) x100 x10

6

= 781 or 0x030D
