Flexible memory controller (FMC) RM0090
1658/1731 DocID018909 Rev 11
Self-refresh mode
This mode is selected by setting the MODE bits to ‘101’ and by configuring the Target Bank
bits (CTB1 and/or CTB2) in the FMC_SDCMR register.
The SDRAM clock stops running after a TRAS delay and the internal refresh timer stops
counting only if one of the following conditions is met:
• A Self-refresh command is issued to both devices
• One of the devices is not activated (SDRAM bank is not initialized).
Before entering Self-Refresh mode, the SDRAM controller automatically issues a PALL
command.
If the Write data FIFO is not empty, all data are sent to the memory before activating the
Self-refresh mode and the BUSY status flag remains set.
In Self-refresh mode, all SDRAM device inputs become don’t care except for SDCKE which
remains low.
The SDRAM device must remain in Self-refresh mode for a minimum period of time of
TRAS and can remain in Self-refresh mode for an indefinite period beyond that. To
guarantee this minimum period, the BUSY status flag remains high after the Self-refresh
activation during a TRAS delay.
As soon as an SDRAM device is selected, the SDRAM controller generates a sequence of
commands to exit from Self-refresh mode. After the memory access, the selected device
remains in Normal mode.
To exit from Self-refresh, the MODE bits must be set to ‘000’ (Normal mode) and the Target
Bank bits (CTB1 and/or CTB2) must be configured in the FMC_SDCMR register.
