to the No Operation command.

CAS#-before-RAS# (CBR) Refresh in conventional DRAMs. This command is non-persistent, so it
must be issued each time a refresh is required. The addressing is generated by the internal refresh
controller. This makes the address bits a "don't care" during an AutoRefresh command. The internal
refresh counter increments automatically on every auto refresh cycle to all of the rows. The refresh
operation must be performed 2048 times within 32ms. The time required to complete the auto
refresh operation is specified by t

mode for data retention and low power operation. Once the SelfRefresh command is registered, all
the inputs to the SDRAM become "don't care" with the exception of CKE, which must remain LOW.
The refresh addressing and timing is internally generated to reduce power consumption. The
SDRAM may remain in SelfRefresh mode for an indefinite period. The SelfRefresh mode is exited
by restarting the external clock and then asserting HIGH on CKE (SelfRefresh Exit command).
NOP or Device Deselect commands must be issued for t
completion of any bank currently being internally refreshed. If auto refresh cycles in bursts are
performed during normal operation, a burst of 4096 auto refresh cycles should be completed just
prior to entering and just after exiting the SelfRefresh mode.
the subsequent cycle by issuing this command (asserting CKE "LOW"). The device operation is held
intact while CLK is suspended. On the other hand, when all banks are in the idle state, this
command performs entry into the PowerDown mode. All input and output buffers (except the CKE
buffer) are turned off in the PowerDown mode. The device may not remain in the Clock Suspend or
PowerDown state longer than the refresh period (64ms) since the command does not perform any
refresh operations.

in the PowerDown mode, the device exits this mode and all disabled buffers are turned on to the

also used for device selection, byte selection and bus control in a memory system.
