VI SDRAM CONTROLLER BLOCK: SDRAM INTERFACE
B-VI-2-18 EPSON S1C33L03 FUNCTION PART
Self refresh
Self-refresh uses the SDRAM’s self-refresh function and does not require clock pulses during the refresh
period, thus helping to reduce the chip’s power consumption. This self-refresh function is also used for data
retention during power-down mode.
To cause the SDRAM to be self-refreshed, set the SDRSRF (D5)/SDRAM control register (0x39FFC1) to "1".
This enables the SDRAM controller to send the self-refresh command (which sets the SDCKE output to low)
to the SDRAM. The command is actually sent a certain time after accessing or auto-refreshing the SDRAM,
so the SDRAM controller contains a 4-bit self-refresh counter to count this time. The counter counts on
SDRAM clock (SD_CLK) edges, and when the designated count is reached, the SDRAM controller sends the
refresh command to the SDRAM. When an SDRAM access or auto-refresh command is issued, the counter is
reset and starts counting again. The designated value for the counter can be specified in a range of 2 to 15 by
using the SDRSRFC[3:0] (D[3:0])/SDRAM self refresh count register (0x39FFC8). Always set the SDRAM
self refresh count register to 2 or more. If it is set to less than 2, the SDRAM cannot exit self-refresh mode.
When an SDRAM access occurs during self-refresh mode, SDCKE is returned high and the SDRAM is taken
out of self-refresh mode.

Figure 2.16 Self Refresh
During self-refresh (while SDCKE = low), the SDRSRM (D6)/SDRAM status register (0x39FFCA) remains
"0". Therefore, it is possible to determine whether or not self-refresh is in operation by reading this status
register.
Furthermore, SDRAM clock output during self-refresh can be turned off in order to reduce the chip’s power
consumption by setting the SDRCLK (D3)/SDRAM control register (0x39FFC1) to "0".
