7.9 Mode Register Operation
The mode register is programmed by the Mode Register Set command (MRS/EMRS) when all banks
are in the idle state. The data to be set in the Mode Register is transferred using the A0 to A11 and
BS0, BS1 address inputs.
The Mode Register designates the operation mode for the read or write cycle. The register is divided
into five filed: (1) Burst Length field to set the length of burst data (2) Addressing Mode selected bit to
designate the column access sequence in a Burst cycle (3) CAS Latency field to set the assess time in
clock cycle (4) DLL reset field to reset the DLL (5) Regular/Extended Mode Register filed to select a
type of MRS (Regular/Extended MRS). EMRS cycle can be implemented the extended function (DLL
enable/Disable mode)
The initial value of the Mode Register (including EMRS) after power up is undefined; therefore the
Mode Register Set command must be issued before power operation.
