Power Management
• Precharge power-down slow exit: In this mode the data-in DLL’s on DDR are off. 
Existing this mode is 3 - 5 DCLK cycles until the first command is allowed, but 
about 16 cycles until first data is allowed.
4.3.2
Self Refresh
The Power Control Unit (PCU) may request the memory controller to place the DRAMs 
in self refresh state. Self refresh per channel is supported. The BIOS can put the 
channel in self-refresh if software remaps memory to use a subset of all channels. Also 
processor channels can enter self refresh autonomously without PCU instruction when 
the package is in a package C0 state.
4.3.2.1
Self Refresh Entry
Self refresh entrance can be either disabled or triggered by an idle counter. Idle counter 
always clears with any access to the memory controller and remains clear as long as 
the memory controller is not drained. As soon as the memory controller is drained, the 
counter starts counting, and when it reaches the idle-count, the memory controller will 
place the DRAMs in self refresh state.
Power may be removed from the memory controller core at this point. But V
CCD
 supply 
(1.5 V or 1.35 V) to the DDR IO must be maintained.
4.3.2.2
Self Refresh Exit
Self refresh exit can be either a message from an external unit (PCU in most cases, but 
also possibly from any message-channel master) or as reaction for an incoming 
transaction.
Here are the proper actions on self refresh exit:
• CK is enabled, and four CK cycles driven.
• When proper skew between Address/Command and CK are established, assert 
CKE.
• Issue NOPs for tXSRD cycles.
• Issue ZQCL to each rank.
• The global scheduler will be enabled to issue commands.
4.3.2.3
DLL and PLL Shutdown
Self refresh, according to configuration, may be a trigger for master DLL shut-down 
and PLL shut-down. The master DLL shut-down is issued by the memory controller 
after the DRAMs have entered self refresh.
The PLL shut-down and wake-up is issued by the PCU. The memory controller gets a 
signal from PLL indicating that the memory controller can start working again.
4.3.3
DRAM I/O Power Management
Unused signals are tristated to save power. This includes all signals associated with an 
unused memory channel.
