10.3.5  Machine A/B/C Mode Registers (MxMR)
The machine mode registers (MxMR), shown in Figure 10-11, contain the conÞguration
for the three UPMs.

EAMUX
External address multiplexing enable/disable.
0 No external address multiplexing. Fastest timing.
1 The memory controller asserts SDAMUX for an extra cycle before issuing an 
ACTIVATE
 
command to the SDRAM. This is useful when external address multiplexing can cause a 
delay on the address lines. Note that if EAMUX is set, ACTTORW should be at least 2.
In 60x-compatible mode, external address multiplexing is placed on the address lines. If the 
additional delay of the multiplexing endangers the device setup time, EAMUX should be set. 
Setting this bit causes the memory controller to add another cycle for each address phase. 
Note that EAMUX can also be set in case of address line delays, such as address buffers.
See Section 10.4.6.7, ÒExternal Address Multiplexing Signal.Ó
29
BUFCMD
If external buffers are placed on the control lines going to both the SDRAM and address lines, 
setting BUFCMD causes all SDRAM control lines except CS to be asserted for two cycles, 
instead of one. See Section 10.4.6.8, ÒExternal Address and Command Buffers (BUFCMD).Ó
0 Normal timing for the control lines
1 All control lines except CS are asserted for two cycles
In 60x-compatible mode, external buffers may be placed on the command strobes, except 
CS, as well as the address lines. If the additional delay of the buffers is endangering the 
device setup time, BUFCMD should be set to cause the memory controller to add another 
cycle for each SDRAM command. 
30Ð31
CL
CAS latency. DeÞnes the timing for Þrst read data after a column address is sampled by the 
SDRAM. See Section 10.4.6.3, ÒColumn Address to First Data OutÑCAS Latency.Ó
00 Reserved 
01 1 clock cycle
10 2 clock cycles
11  3 clock cycles
