SDRAM Controller Operation
15.2.4.1 Mode Register Settings
It is possible to configure the operation of SDRAMs, namely their burst operation and CAS
latency, through the SDRAM component’s mode register. CAS latency is a function of the
speed of the SDRAM and the bus clock of the DRAM controller. The DRAM controller
operates at a CAS latency of 1, 2, or 3.

speed of the SDRAM and the bus clock of the DRAM controller. The DRAM controller
operates at a CAS latency of 1, 2, or 3.
Although the MCF5282 DRAM controller supports bursting operations, it does not use the
bursting features of the SDRAMs. Because the MCF5282 can burst operand sizes of 1, 2,
4, or 16 bytes long, the concept of a fixed burst length in the SDRAMs mode register
becomes problematic. Therefore, the MCF5282 DRAM controller generates the burst
cycles rather than the SDRAM device. Because the MCF5282 generates a new address and

should be set either not to burst or to a burst length of one. This allows bursting to be
controlled by the MCF5282.

The SDRAM mode register is written by setting the associated block’s DACR[IMRS].
First, the base address and mask registers must be set to the appropriate configuration to
allow the mode register to be set. Note that improperly set DMR mask bits may prevent
access to the mode register address. Thus, the user should determine the mapping of the
mode register address to the MCF5282 address bits to find out if an access is blocked. If the
DMR setting prohibits mode register access, the DMR should be reconfigured to enable the
access and then set to its necessary configuration after the

The associated CBM bits should also be initialized. After DACR[IMRS] is set, the next

access to the SDRAM address space generates the

address of the access should be selected to place the correct mode information on the
SDRAM address pins. The address is not multiplexed for the
SDRAM address pins. The address is not multiplexed for the
