General Description
The 1Gb Mobile low-power DDR SDRAM is a high-speed CMOS, dynamic random-ac-
cess memory containing 1,073,741,824 bits. It is internally configured as a quad-bank
DRAM. Each of the x16’s 268,435,456-bit banks is organized as 16,384 rows by 1024 col-
umns by 16 bits. Each of the x32’s 268,435,456-bit banks is organized as 8192 rows by
1024 columns by 32 bits.
Note:
1. Throughout this data sheet, various figures and text refer to DQs as “DQ.” DQ should
be interpreted as any and all DQ collectively, unless specifically stated otherwise. Addi-
tionally, the x16 is divided into 2 bytes: the lower byte and the upper byte. For the lower
byte (DQ[7:0]), DM refers to LDM and DQS refers to LDQS. For the upper byte
(DQ[15:8]), DM refers to UDM and DQS refers to UDQS. The x32 is divided into 4 bytes.
For DQ[7:0], DM refers to DM0 and DQS refers to DQS0. For DQ[15:8], DM refers to
DM1 and DQS refers to DQS1. For DQ[23:16], DM refers to DM2 and DQS refers to
DQS2. For DQ[31:24], DM refers to DM3 and DQS refers to DQS3.
2. Complete functionality is described throughout the document; any page or diagram
may have been simplified to convey a topic and may not be inclusive of all require-
ments.
3. Any specific requirement takes precedence over a general statement.

The ball descriptions table is a comprehensive list of all possible balls for all supported
packages. Not all balls listed are supported for a given package.
Table 3: Ball Descriptions
Symbol Type Description
CK, CK# Input Clock: CK is the system clock input. CK and CK# are differential clock inputs. All ad-
dress and control input signals are sampled on the crossing of the positive edge of CK
and the negative edge of CK#. Input and output data is referenced to the crossing of
CK and CK# (both directions of the crossing).
CKE
CKE0, CKE1
Input Clock enable: CKE HIGH activates, and CKE LOW deactivates, the internal clock signals,
input buffers, and output drivers. Taking CKE LOW enables PRECHARGE power-down
and SELF REFRESH operations (all banks idle), or ACTIVE power-down (row active in
any bank). CKE is synchronous for all functions except SELF REFRESH exit. All input
buffers (except CKE) are disabled during power-down and self refresh modes.
CKE0 is used for a single LPDDR product.
CKE1 is used for dual LPDDR products and is considered RFU for single LPDDR MCPs.
CS#
CS0#, CS1#
Input Chip select: CS# enables (registered LOW) and disables (registered HIGH) the command
decoder. All commands are masked when CS# is registered HIGH. CS# provides for ex-
ternal bank selection on systems with multiple banks. CS# is considered part of the
command code.
CS0# is used for a single LPDDR product.
CS1# is used for dual LPDDR products and is considered RFU for single LPDDR MCPs.
RAS#, CAS#, WE# Input Command inputs: RAS#, CAS#, and WE# (along with CS#) define the command being
entered.
UDM, LDM (x16)
DM[3:0] (x32)
Input Input data mask: DM is an input mask signal for write data. Input data is masked
when DM is sampled HIGH along with that input data during a WRITE access. DM is
sampled on both edges of DQS. Although DM balls are input-only, the DM loading is
designed to match that of DQ and DQS balls.
BA0, BA1 Input Bank address inputs: BA0 and BA1 define to which bank an ACTIVE, READ, WRITE, or
PRECHARGE command is being applied. BA0 and BA1 also determine which mode reg-
ister is loaded during a LOAD MODE REGISTER command.
A[13:0] Input Address inputs: Provide the row address for ACTIVE commands, and the column ad-
dress and auto precharge bit (A10) for READ or WRITE commands, to select one loca-
tion out of the memory array in the respective bank. During a PRECHARGE command,
A10 determines whether the PRECHARGE applies to one bank (A10 LOW, bank selec-
ted by BA0, BA1) or all banks (A10 HIGH). The address inputs also provide the op-code
during a LOAD MODE REGISTER command. The maximum address range is dependent
upon configuration. Unused address balls become RFU.
TEST Input Test pin: Must be tied to VSS or VSSQ in normal operations.
DQ[15:0] (x16)
DQ[31:0] (x32)
Input/
output
Data input/output: Data bus for x16 and x32.
LDQS, UDQS (x16)
DQS[3:0] (x32)
Input/
output
Data strobe: Output with read data, input with write data. DQS is edge-aligned with
read data, center-aligned in write data. It is used to capture data.
TQ Output Temperature sensor output: TQ HIGH when LPDDR TJ exceeds 85°C.
VDDQ Supply DQ power supply.
VSSQ Supply DQ ground.
VDD Supply Power supply.

Electrical Specifications
Stresses greater than those listed may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a
stress rating only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other condi-
tions above those indicated in the operational sections of this specification is not im-
plied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect
reliability.
Table 4: Absolute Maximum Ratings

whichever is less
V
Storage temperature (plastic) TSTG –55 150 ˚C
Note: 1. VDD and VDDQ must be within 300mV of each other at all times. VDDQ must not exceed
VDD.

Notes: 1. All voltages referenced to VSS.
2. All parameters assume proper device initialization.
3. Tests for AC timing, IDD, and electrical AC and DC characteristics may be conducted at
nominal supply voltage levels, but the related specifications and device operation are
guaranteed for the full voltage range specified.
4. Outputs measured with equivalent load; transmission line delay is assumed to be very
small:
I/O
20pF
I/O
10pF
Full drive strength Half drive strength
50 50
5. Timing and IDD tests may use a VIL-to-VIH swing of up to 1.5V in the test environment,
but input timing is still referenced to VDDQ/2 (or to the crossing point for CK/CK#). The
output timing reference voltage level is VDDQ/2.
6. Any positive glitch must be less than one-third of the clock cycle and not more than
+200mV or 2.0V, whichever is less. Any negative glitch must be less than one-third of the
clock cycle and not exceed either –150mV or 1.6V, whichever is more positive.
7. VDD and VDDQ must track each other and VDDQ must be less than or equal to VDD.
8. To maintain a valid level, the transitioning edge of the input must:
8a. Sustain a constant slew rate from the current AC level through to the target AC lev-
el, VIL(AC) Or VIH(AC).
8b. Reach at least the target AC level.
8c. After the AC target level is reached, continue to maintain at least the target DC lev-
el, VIL(DC) or VIH(DC).
9. VIH overshoot: VIHmax = VDDQ + 1.0V for a pulse width 3ns and the pulse width cannot
be greater than one-third of the cycle rate. VIL undershoot: VILmin = –1.0V for a pulse
width 3ns and the pulse width cannot be greater than one-third of the cycle rate.
10. CK and CK# input slew rate must be 1 V/ns (2 V/ns if measured differentially).
11. VID is the magnitude of the difference between the input level on CK and the input lev-
el on CK#.
12. The value of VIX is expected to equal VDDQ/2 of the transmitting device and must track
variations in the DC level of the same.
13. DQ and DM input slew rates must not deviate from DQS by more than 10%. 50ps must
be added to tDS and tDH for each 100 mV/ns reduction in slew rate. If slew rate exceeds
4 V/ns, functionality is uncertain.

Notes: 1. All voltages referenced to VSS.
2. Tests for IDD characteristics may be conducted at nominal supply voltage levels, but the
related specifications and device operation are guaranteed for the full voltage range
specified.
3. Timing and IDD tests may use a VIL-to-VIH swing of up to 1.5V in the test environment,
but input timing is still referenced to VDDQ/2 (or to the crossing point for CK/CK#). The
output timing reference voltage level is VDDQ/2.
4. IDD is dependent on output loading and cycle rates. Specified values are obtained with
minimum cycle time with the outputs open.
5. IDD specifications are tested after the device is properly initialized and values are aver-
aged at the defined cycle rate.
6. MIN (tRC or tRFC) for IDD measurements is the smallest multiple of tCK that meets the
minimum absolute value for the respective parameter. tRASmax for IDD measurements is
the largest multiple of tCK that meets the maximum absolute value for tRAS.
7. Measurement is taken 500ms after entering into this operating mode to provide settling
time for the tester.
8. VDD must not vary more than 4% if CKE is not active while any bank is active.
9. IDD2N specifies DQ, DQS, and DM to be driven to a valid high or low logic level.
10. CKE must be active (HIGH) during the entire time a REFRESH command is executed.
From the time the AUTO REFRESH command is registered, CKE must be active at each
rising clock edge until tRFC later.
11. This limit is a nominal value and does not result in a fail. CKE is HIGH during REFRESH
command period (tRFC (MIN)) else CKE is LOW (for example, during standby).
12. Values for IDD6 85˚C are guaranteed for the entire temperature range. All other IDD6 val-
ues are estimated.
13. Typical values at 25˚C, not a maximum value.
14. Self refresh is not supported for AT (85˚C to 105˚C) operation.

Notes: 1. All voltages referenced to VSS.
2. All parameters assume proper device initialization.
3. Tests for AC timing and electrical AC and DC characteristics may be conducted at nomi-
nal supply voltage levels, but the related specifications and device operation are guar-
anteed for the full voltage ranges specified.
4. The circuit shown below represents the timing reference load used in defining the rele-
vant timing parameters of the device. It is not intended to be either a precise represen-
tation of the typical system environment or a depiction of the actual load presented by
a production tester. System designers will use IBIS or other simulation tools to correlate
the timing reference load to system environment. Specifications are correlated to pro-
duction test conditions (generally a coaxial transmission line terminated at the tester
electronics). For the half-strength driver with a nominal 10pF load, parameters tAC and
tQH are expected to be in the same range. However, these parameters are not subject to
production test but are estimated by design/characterization. Use of IBIS or other simu-

5. The CK/CK# input reference voltage level (for timing referenced to CK/CK#) is the point
at which CK and CK# cross; the input reference voltage level for signals other than
CK/CK# is VDDQ/2.
6. A CK and CK# input slew rate 1 V/ns (2 V/ns if measured differentially) is assumed for
all parameters.
7. All AC timings assume an input slew rate of 1 V/ns.
8. CAS latency definition: with CL = 2, the first data element is valid at (tCK + tAC) after the
clock at which the READ command was registered; for CL = 3, the first data element is
valid at (2 × tCK + tAC) after the first clock at which the READ command was registered.
9. Timing tests may use a VIL-to-VIH swing of up to 1.5V in the test environment, but input
timing is still referenced to VDDQ/2 or to the crossing point for CK/CK#. The output tim-
ing reference voltage level is VDDQ/2.
10. Clock frequency change is only permitted during clock stop, power-down, or self refresh
mode.
11. In cases where the device is in self refresh mode for tCKE, tCKE starts at the rising edge
of the clock and ends when CKE transitions HIGH.
12. tDAL = (tWR/tCK) + (tRP/tCK): for each term, if not already an integer, round up to the
next highest integer.
13. Referenced to each output group: for x16, LDQS with DQ[7:0]; and UDQS with DQ[15:8].
For x32, DQS0 with DQ[7:0]; DQS1 with DQ[15:8]; DQS2 with DQ[23:16]; and DQS3 with
DQ[31:24].
14. DQ and DM input slew rates must not deviate from DQS by more than 10%. If the
DQ/DM/DQS slew rate is less than 1.0 V/ns, timing must be derated: 50ps must be added
to tDS and tDH for each 100 mV/ns reduction in slew rate. If the slew rate exceeds 4 V/ns,
functionality is uncertain.
15. The transition time for input signals (CAS#, CKE, CS#, DM, DQ, DQS, RAS#, WE#, and ad-
dresses) are measured between VIL(DC) to VIH(AC) for rising input signals and VIH(DC) to
VIL(AC) for falling input signals.
16. These parameters guarantee device timing but are not tested on each device.
17. The valid data window is derived by achieving other specifications: tHP (tCK/2), tDQSQ,
and tQH (tHP - tQHS). The data valid window derates directly proportional with the clock
duty cycle and a practical data valid window can be derived. The clock is provided a
maximum duty cycle variation of 45/55. Functionality is uncertain when operating be-
yond a 45/55 ratio.
18. tHP (MIN) is the lesser of tCL (MIN) and tCH (MIN) actually applied to the device CK and
CK# inputs, collectively.
19. tHZ and tLZ transitions occur in the same access time windows as valid data transitions.
These parameters are not referenced to a specific voltage level, but specify when the
device output is no longer driving (tHZ) or begins driving (tLZ).
20. tHZ (MAX) will prevail over tDQSCK (MAX) + tRPST (MAX) condition.
21. Fast command/address input slew rate 1 V/ns. Slow command/address input slew rate
0.5 V/ns. If the slew rate is less than 0.5 V/ns, timing must be derated: tIS has an addi-
tional 50ps per each 100 mV/ns reduction in slew rate from the 0.5 V/ns. tIH has 0ps add-
ed, therefore, it remains constant. If the slew rate exceeds 4.5 V/ns, functionality is un-
certain.
22. READs and WRITEs with auto precharge must not be issued until tRAS (MIN) can be satis-
fied prior to the internal PRECHARGE command being issued.

23. DRAM devices should be evenly addressed when being accessed. Disproportionate ac-
cesses to a particular row address may result in reduction of the product lifetime.
24. For the automotive temperature parts, tREF = tREF/2 and tREFI = tREFI/2.
25. This is not a device limit. The device will operate with a negative value, but system per-
formance could be degraded due to bus turnaround.
26. It is recommended that DQS be valid (HIGH or LOW) on or before the WRITE command.
The case shown (DQS going from High-Z to logic low) applies when no WRITEs were
previously in progress on the bus. If a previous WRITE was in progress, DQS could be
HIGH during this time, depending on tDQSS.
27. The maximum limit for this parameter is not a device limit. The device will operate with
a greater value for this parameter, but system performance (bus turnaround) will de-
grade accordingly.
28. At least 1 clock cycle is required during tWR time when in auto precharge mode.
29. Clock must be toggled a minimum of two times during the tXSR period.

Functional Description
The Mobile LPDDR SDRAM uses a double data rate architecture to achieve high-speed
operation. The double data rate architecture is essentially a 2n-prefetch architecture,
with an interface designed to transfer two data words per clock cycle at the I/O. Single
read or write access for the device consists of a single 2n-bit-wide, one-clock-cycle data
transfer at the internal DRAM core and two corresponding n-bit-wide, one-half-clock-
cycle data transfers at the I/O.
A bidirectional data strobe (DQS) is transmitted externally, along with data, for use in
data capture at the receiver. DQS is a strobe transmitted by the device during READs
and by the memory controller during WRITEs. DQS is edge-aligned with data for READs
and center-aligned with data for WRITEs. The x16 device has two data strobes, one for
the lower byte and one for the upper byte; the x32 device has four data strobes, one per
byte.
The LPDDR device operates from a differential clock (CK and CK#); the crossing of CK
going HIGH and CK# going LOW will be referred to as the positive edge of CK. Com-
mands (address and control signals) are registered at every positive edge of CK. Input
data is registered on both edges of DQS, and output data is referenced to both edges of
DQS, as well as to both edges of CK.
Read and write accesses to the device are burst-oriented; accesses start at a selected lo-
cation and continue for a programmed number of locations in a programmed se-
quence. Accesses begin with the registration of an ACTIVE command, followed by a
READ or WRITE command. The address bits registered coincident with the ACTIVE
command are used to select the bank and row to be accessed. The address bits regis-
tered coincident with the READ or WRITE command are used to select the starting col-
umn location for the burst access.
The device provides for programmable READ or WRITE burst lengths of 2, 4, 8, or 16. An
auto precharge function can be enabled to provide a self-timed row precharge that is
initiated at the end of the burst access.
As with standard DDR SDRAM, the pipelined, multibank architecture of LPDDR sup-
ports concurrent operation, thereby providing high effective bandwidth by hiding row
precharge and activation time.
An auto refresh mode is provided, along with a power-saving power-down mode. Deep
power-down mode is offered to achieve maximum power reduction by eliminating the
power of the memory array. Data will not be retained after the device enters deep pow-
er-down mode.
Two self refresh features, temperature-compensated self refresh (TCSR) and partial-ar-
ray self refresh (PASR), offer additional power savings. TCSR is controlled by the auto-
matic on-chip temperature sensor. PASR can be customized using the extended mode
register settings. The two features can be combined to achieve even greater power sav-
ings.
The DLL that is typically used on standard DDR devices is not necessary on LPDDR de-
vices. It has been omitted to save power.

2. BA0–BA1 provide bank address and A[0:I] provide row address (where I = the most sig-
nificant address bit for each configuration).
3. BA0–BA1 provide bank address; A[0:I] provide column address (where I = the most sig-
nificant address bit for each configuration); A10 HIGH enables the auto precharge fea-
ture (nonpersistent); A10 LOW disables the auto precharge feature.
4. Applies only to READ bursts with auto precharge disabled; this command is undefined
and should not be used for READ bursts with auto precharge enabled and for WRITE
bursts.
5. This command is a BURST TERMINATE if CKE is HIGH and DEEP POWER-DOWN if CKE is
LOW.
6. A10 LOW: BA0–BA1 determine which bank is precharged.
A10 HIGH: all banks are precharged and BA0–BA1 are “Don’t Care.”
7. This command is AUTO REFRESH if CKE is HIGH, SELF REFRESH if CKE is LOW.
8. Internal refresh counter controls row addressing; in self refresh mode all inputs and I/Os
are “Don’t Care” except for CKE.
9. BA0–BA1 select the standard mode register, extended mode register, or status register.

Notes: 1. Used to mask write data; provided coincident with the corresponding data.
2. All states and sequences not shown are reserved and/or illegal.
DESELECT
The DESELECT function (CS# HIGH) prevents new commands from being executed by
the device. Operations already in progress are not affected.
NO OPERATION
The NO OPERATION (NOP) command is used to instruct the selected device to perform
a NOP. This prevents unwanted commands from being registered during idle or wait
states. Operations already in progress are not affected.
LOAD MODE REGISTER
The mode registers are loaded via inputs A[0:n]. See mode register descriptions in
Standard Mode Register and Extended Mode Register. The LOAD MODE REGISTER
command can only be issued when all banks are idle, and a subsequent executable
command cannot be issued until tMRD is met.
ACTIVE
The ACTIVE command is used to activate a row in a particular bank for a subsequent
access. The values on the BA0 and BA1 inputs select the bank, and the address provided
on inputs A[0:n] selects the row. This row remains active for accesses until a PRE-
CHARGE command is issued to that bank. A PRECHARGE command must be issued be-
fore opening a different row in the same bank.

WRITE
The WRITE command is used to initiate a burst write access to an active row. The values
on the BA0 and BA1 inputs select the bank; the address provided on inputs A[I:0] (where
I = the most significant column address bit for each configuration) selects the starting
column location. The value on input A10 determines whether auto precharge is used. If
auto precharge is selected, the row being accessed will be precharged at the end of the
WRITE burst; if auto precharge is not selected, the row will remain open for subsequent
accesses. Input data appearing on the DQ is written to the memory array, subject to the
DM input logic level appearing coincident with the data. If a given DM signal is regis-
tered LOW, the corresponding data will be written to memory; if the DM signal is regis-
tered HIGH, the corresponding data inputs will be ignored, and a WRITE will not be
executed to that byte/column location.
If a WRITE or a READ is in progress, the entire data burst must be complete prior to
stopping the clock (see Clock Change Frequency (page 97)). A burst completion for
WRITEs is defined when the write postamble and tWR or tWTR are satisfied.

PRECHARGE
The PRECHARGE command is used to deactivate the open row in a particular bank or
the open row in all banks. The bank(s) will be available for a subsequent row access a
specified time (tRP) after the PRECHARGE command is issued. Input A10 determines
whether one or all banks will be precharged, and in the case where only one bank is pre-
charged, inputs BA0 and BA1 select the bank. Otherwise, BA0 and BA1 are treated as
“Don’t Care.” After a bank has been precharged, it is in the idle state and must be acti-
vated prior to any READ or WRITE commands being issued to that bank.

BURST TERMINATE
The BURST TERMINATE command is used to truncate READ bursts with auto pre-
charge disabled. The most recently registered READ command prior to the BURST TER-
MINATE command will be truncated, as described in READ Operation. The open page
from which the READ was terminated remains open.
AUTO REFRESH
AUTO REFRESH is used during normal operation of the device and is analogous to
CAS#-BEFORE-RAS# (CBR) REFRESH in FPM/EDO DRAM. The AUTO REFRESH com-
mand is nonpersistent and must be issued each time a refresh is required.
Addressing is generated by the internal refresh controller. This makes the address bits a
“Don’t Care” during an AUTO REFRESH command.
For improved efficiency in scheduling and switching between tasks, some flexibility in
the absolute refresh interval is provided. The auto refresh period begins when the AUTO
REFRESH command is registered and ends tRFC later.

SELF REFRESH
The SELF REFRESH command is used to place the device in self refresh mode; self re-
fresh mode is used to retain data in the memory device while the rest of the system is
powered down. When in self refresh mode, the device retains data without external
clocking. The SELF REFRESH command is initiated like an AUTO REFRESH command,
except that CKE is disabled (LOW). After the SELF REFRESH command is registered, all
inputs to the device become “Don’t Care” with the exception of CKE, which must re-
main LOW.
Micron recommends that, prior to self refresh entry and immediately upon self refresh
exit, the user perform a burst auto refresh cycle for the number of refresh rows. Alterna-
tively, if a distributed refresh pattern is used, this pattern should be immediately re-
sumed upon self refresh exit.
DEEP POWER-DOWN
The DEEP POWER-DOWN (DPD) command is used to enter DPD mode, which achieves
maximum power reduction by eliminating the power to the memory array. Data will not
be retained when the device enters DPD mode. The DPD command is the same as a
BURST TERMINATE command with CKE LOW.

Read with auto-precharge enabled: Starts with registration of a READ command with
auto precharge enabled and ends when tRP has been met. After tRP is met, the bank will
be in the idle state.
Write with auto-precharge enabled: Starts with registration of a WRITE command with
auto precharge enabled and ends when tRP has been met. After tRP is met, the bank
will be in the idle state.
5. The states listed below must not be interrupted by any executable command; DESELECT
or NOP commands must be applied on each positive clock edge during these states.
Refreshing: Starts with registration of an AUTO REFRESH command and ends when tRFC
is met. After tRFC is met, the device will be in the all banks idle state.
Accessing mode register: Starts with registration of a LOAD MODE REGISTER command
and ends when tMRD has been met. After tMRD is met, the device will be in the all
banks idle state.
Precharging all: Starts with registration of a PRECHARGE ALL command and ends when
tRP is met. After tRP is met, all banks will be in the idle state.
6. All states and sequences not shown are illegal or reserved.
7. Not bank-specific; requires that all banks are idle, and bursts are not in progress.
8. May or may not be bank-specific; if multiple banks need to be precharged, each must be
in a valid state for precharging.
9. Not bank-specific; BURST TERMINATE affects the most recent READ burst, regardless of
bank.
10. READs or WRITEs listed in the Command/Action column include READs or WRITEs with
auto precharge enabled and READs or WRITEs with auto precharge disabled.
11. Requires appropriate DM masking.
12. A WRITE command can be applied after the completion of the READ burst; otherwise, a
BURST TERMINATE must be used to end the READ burst prior to asserting a WRITE com-
mand.

Notes: 1. This table applies when CKEn - 1 was HIGH, CKEn is HIGH and after tXSR has been met (if
the previous state was self refresh), after tXP has been met (if the previous state was
power-down) or after a full initialization (if the previous state was deep power-down).
2. This table describes alternate bank operation, except where noted (for example, the cur-
rent state is for bank n and the commands shown are those supported for issue to bank
m, assuming that bank m is in such a state that the given command is supported). Excep-
tions are covered in the notes below.
3. Current state definitions:
Idle: The bank has been precharged, and tRP has been met.
Row active: A row in the bank has been activated, and tRCD has been met. No data
bursts/accesses and no register accesses are in progress.
Read: A READ burst has been initiated and has not yet terminated or been terminated.
Write: A WRITE burst has been initiated and has not yet terminated or been terminated.
3a. Both the read with auto precharge enabled state or the write with auto precharge
enabled state can be broken into two parts: the access period and the precharge period.
For read with auto precharge, the precharge period is defined as if the same burst was

executed with auto precharge disabled and then followed with the earliest possible
PRECHARGE command that still accesses all of the data in the burst. For write with auto
precharge, the precharge period begins when tWR ends, with tWR measured as if auto
precharge was disabled. The access period starts with registration of the command and
ends when the precharge period (or tRP) begins. This device supports concurrent auto
precharge such that when a read with auto precharge is enabled or a write with auto
precharge is enabled, any command to other banks is supported, as long as that com-
mand does not interrupt the read or write data transfer already in process. In either
case, all other related limitations apply (i.e., contention between read data and write
data must be avoided).

Initialization
Prior to normal operation, the device must be powered up and initialized in a prede-
fined manner. Using initialization procedures other than those specified will result in
undefined operation.
If there is an interruption to the device power, the device must be re-initialized using
the initialization sequence described below to ensure proper functionality of the device.
To properly initialize the device, this sequence must be followed:
1. The core power (VDD) and I/O power (VDDQ) must be brought up simultaneously.
It is recommended that VDD and VDDQ be from the same power source, or VDDQ
must never exceed VDD. Standard initialization requires that CKE be asserted
HIGH (see Figure 17 (page 51)). Alternatively, initialization can be completed
with CKE LOW provided that CKE transitions HIGH tIS prior to T0 (see Figure 18
(page 52)).
2. When power supply voltages are stable and the CKE has been driven HIGH, it is
safe to apply the clock.
3. When the clock is stable, a 200μs minimum delay is required by the Mobile LPDDR
prior to applying an executable command. During this time, NOP or DESELECT
commands must be issued on the command bus.
4. Issue a PRECHARGE ALL command.
5. Issue NOP or DESELECT commands for at least tRP time.
6. Issue an AUTO REFRESH command followed by NOP or DESELECT commands
for at least tRFC time. Issue a second AUTO REFRESH command followed by NOP
or DESELECT commands for at least tRFC time. Two AUTO REFRESH commands
must be issued. Typically, both of these commands are issued at this stage as de-
scribed above.
7. Using the LOAD MODE REGISTER command, load the standard mode register as
desired.
8. Issue NOP or DESELECT commands for at least tMRD time.
9. Using the LOAD MODE REGISTER command, load the extended mode register to
the desired operating modes. Note that the sequence in which the standard and
extended mode registers are programmed is not critical.
10. Issue NOP or DESELECT commands for at least tMRD time.
After steps 1–10 are completed, the device has been properly initialized and is ready to
receive any valid command.

Standard Mode Register
The standard mode register bit definition enables the selection of burst length, burst
type, CAS latency (CL), and operating mode, as shown in Figure 19. Reserved states
should not be used as this may result in setting the device into an unknown state or
cause incompatibility with future versions of LPDDR devices. The standard mode regis-
ter is programmed via the LOAD MODE REGISTER command (with BA0 = 0 and BA1 =
0) and will retain the stored information until it is programmed again, until the device
goes into deep power-down mode, or until the device loses power.
Reprogramming the mode register will not alter the contents of the memory, provided it
is performed correctly. The mode register must be loaded when all banks are idle and
no bursts are in progress, and the controller must wait tMRD before initiating the subse-
quent operation. Violating any of these requirements will result in unspecified opera-
tion.

Burst Length
Read and write accesses to the device are burst-oriented, and the burst length (BL) is
programmable. The burst length determines the maximum number of column loca-
tions that can be accessed for a given READ or WRITE command. Burst lengths of 2, 4,
8, or 16 locations are available for both sequential and interleaved burst types.
When a READ or WRITE command is issued, a block of columns equal to the burst
length is effectively selected. All accesses for that burst take place within this block,
meaning that the burst will wrap when a boundary is reached. The block is uniquely se-
lected by A[i:1] when BL = 2, by A[i:2] when BL = 4, by A[i:3] when BL = 8, and by A[i:4]
when BL = 16, where Ai is the most significant column address bit for a given configura-
tion. The remaining (least significant) address bits are used to specify the starting loca-
tion within the block. The programmed burst length applies to both READ and WRITE
bursts.
Burst Type
Accesses within a given burst can be programmed to be either sequential or interleaved
via the standard mode register.
The ordering of accesses within a burst is determined by the burst length, the burst
type, and the starting column address.

CAS Latency
The CAS latency (CL) is the delay, in clock cycles, between the registration of a READ
command and the availability of the first output data. The latency can be set to 2 or 3
clocks, as shown in Figure 20 (page 56).
For CL = 3, if the READ command is registered at clock edge n, then the data will be
nominally available at (n + 2 clocks + tAC). For CL = 2, if the READ command is regis-
tered at clock edge n, then the data will be nominally available at (n + 1 clock + tAC).

Operating Mode
The normal operating mode is selected by issuing a LOAD MODE REGISTER command
with bits A[n:7] each set to zero, and bits A[6:0] set to the desired values.
All other combinations of values for A[n:7] are reserved for future use. Reserved states
should not be used because unknown operation or incompatibility with future versions
may result.

Extended Mode Register
The EMR controls additional functions beyond those set by the mode registers. These
additional functions include drive strength, TCSR, and PASR.
The EMR is programmed via the LOAD MODE REGISTER command with BA0 = 0 and
BA1 = 1. Information in the EMR will be retained until it is programmed again, the de-
vice goes into deep power-down mode, or the device loses power.

Temperature-Compensated Self Refresh
This device includes a temperature sensor that is implemented for automatic control of
the self refresh oscillator. Programming the temperature-compensated self refresh
(TCSR) bits will have no effect on the device. The self refresh oscillator will continue to
refresh at the optimal factory-programmed rate for the device temperature.

Partial-Array Self Refresh
For further power savings during self refresh, the partial-array self refresh (PASR) feature
enables the controller to select the amount of memory to be refreshed during self re-
fresh. The refresh options include:
Full array: banks 0, 1, 2, and 3
One-half array: banks 0 and 1
One-quarter array: bank 0
One-eighth array: bank 0 with row address most significant bit (MSB) = 0
One-sixteenth array: bank 0 with row address MSB = 0 and row address MSB - 1 = 0
READ and WRITE commands can still be issued to the full array during standard opera-
tion, but only the selected regions of the array will be refreshed during self refresh. Data
in regions that are not selected will be lost.
Output Drive Strength
Because the device is designed for use in smaller systems that are typically point-to-
point connections, an option to control the drive strength of the output buffers is provi-
ded. Drive strength should be selected based on the expected loading of the memory
bus. The output driver settings are 25ΩΩ, and 55Ω internal impedance for full, three-
quarter, and one-half drive strengths, respectively.

Status Read Register
The status read register (SRR) is used to read the manufacturer ID, revision ID, refresh
multiplier, width type, and density of the device, as shown in Figure 23 (page 60). The
SRR is read via the LOAD MODE REGISTER command with BA0 = 1 and BA1 = 0. The
sequence to perform an SRR command is as follows:
1. The device must be properly initialized and in the idle or all banks precharged
state.
2. Issue a LOAD MODE REGISTER command with BA[1:0] = 01 and all address pins
set to 0.
3. Wait tSRR; only NOP or DESELECT commands are supported during the tSRR
time.
4. Issue a READ command.
5. Subsequent commands to the device must be issued tSRC after the SRR READ
command is issued; only NOP or DESELECT commands are supported during
tSRC.
SRR output is read with a burst length of 2. SRR data is driven to the outputs on the first
bit of the burst, with the output being “Don’t Care” on the second bit of the burst.

Notes: 1. All banks must be idle prior to status register read.
2. NOP or DESELECT commands are required between the LMR and READ commands
(tSRR), and between the READ and the next VALID command (tSRC).
3. CAS latency is predetermined by the programming of the mode register. CL = 3 is shown
as an example only.
4. Burst length is fixed to 2 for SRR regardless of the value programmed by the mode reg-
ister.
5. The second bit of the data-out burst is a “Don’t Care.”

Bank/Row Activation
Before any READ or WRITE commands can be issued to a bank within the device, a row
in that bank must be opened. This is accomplished via the ACTIVE command, which
selects both the bank and the row to be activated (see the ACTIVE Command figure).
After a row is opened with the ACTIVE command, a READ or WRITE command can be
issued to that row, subject to the tRCD specification.
A subsequent ACTIVE command to a different row in the same bank can only be issued
after the previous active row has been precharged. The minimum time interval between
successive ACTIVE commands to the same bank is defined by tRC.
A subsequent ACTIVE command to another bank can be issued while the first bank is
being accessed, which results in a reduction of total row access overhead. The mini-
mum time interval between successive ACTIVE commands to different banks is defined
by tRRD.

READ Operation
READ burst operations are initiated with a READ command, as shown in Figure 12
(page 40). The starting column and bank addresses are provided with the READ com-
mand, and auto precharge is either enabled or disabled for that burst access. If auto
precharge is enabled, the row being accessed is precharged at the completion of the
burst. For the READ commands used in the following illustrations, auto precharge is
disabled.
During READ bursts, the valid data-out element from the starting column address will
be available following the CL after the READ command. Each subsequent data-out ele-
ment will be valid nominally at the next positive or negative clock edge. Figure 24
(page 63) shows general timing for each possible CL setting.
DQS is driven by the device along with output data. The initial LOW state on DQS is
known as the read preamble; the LOW state coincident with the last data-out element is
known as the read postamble. The READ burst is considered complete when the read
postamble is satisfied.
Upon completion of a burst, assuming no other commands have been initiated, the DQ
will go to High-Z. A detailed explanation of tDQSQ (valid data-out skew), tQH (data-out
window hold), and the valid data window is depicted in Figure 31 (page 70) and Fig-
ure 32 (page 71). A detailed explanation of tDQSCK (DQS transition skew to CK) and
tAC (data-out transition skew to CK) is depicted in Figure 33 (page 72).
Data from any READ burst can be truncated by a READ or WRITE command to the
same or alternate bank, by a BURST TERMINATE command, or by a PRECHARGE com-
mand to the same bank, provided that the auto precharge mode was not activated.
Data from any READ burst can be concatenated with or truncated with data from a sub-
sequent READ command. In either case, a continuous flow of data can be maintained.
The first data element from the new burst either follows the last element of a completed
burst or the last desired data element of a longer burst that is being truncated. The new
READ command should be issued x cycles after the first READ command, where x
equals the number of desired data element pairs (pairs are required by the 2n-prefetch
architecture). This is shown in Figure 25 (page 64).
A READ command can be initiated on any clock cycle following a previous READ com-
mand. Nonconsecutive read data is shown in Figure 26 (page 65). Full-speed random
read accesses within a page (or pages) can be performed as shown in Figure 27
(page 66).
Data from any READ burst can be truncated with a BURST TERMINATE command, as
shown in Figure 28 (page 67). The BURST TERMINATE latency is equal to the READ
(CAS) latency; for example, the BURST TERMINATE command should be issued x cy-
cles after the READ command, where x equals the number of desired data element pairs
(pairs are required by the 2n-prefetch architecture).
Data from any READ burst must be completed or truncated before a subsequent WRITE
command can be issued. If truncation is necessary, the BURST TERMINATE command
must be used, as shown in Figure 29 (page 68). A READ burst can be followed by, or
truncated with, a PRECHARGE command to the same bank, provided that auto pre-
charge was not activated. The PRECHARGE command should be issued x cycles after
the READ command, where x equals the number of desired data element pairs. This is
shown in Figure 30 (page 69). Following the PRECHARGE command, a subsequent

time is hidden during the access of the last data elements.

WRITE Operation
WRITE bursts are initiated with a WRITE command, as shown in Figure 13 (page 41).
The starting column and bank addresses are provided with the WRITE command, and
auto precharge is either enabled or disabled for that access. If auto precharge is ena-
bled, the row being accessed is precharged at the completion of the burst. For the
WRITE commands used in the following illustrations, auto precharge is disabled. Basic
data input timing is shown in Figure 34 (page 74) (this timing applies to all WRITE op-
erations).
Input data appearing on the data bus is written to the memory array subject to the state
of data mask (DM) inputs coincident with the data. If DM is registered LOW, the corre-
sponding data will be written; if DM is registered HIGH, the corresponding data will be
ignored, and the write will not be executed to that byte/column location. DM operation
is illustrated in Figure 35 (page 75).
During WRITE bursts, the first valid data-in element will be registered on the first rising
edge of DQS following the WRITE command, and subsequent data elements will be reg-
istered on successive edges of DQS. The LOW state of DQS between the WRITE com-
mand and the first rising edge is known as the write preamble; the LOW state of DQS
following the last data-in element is known as the write postamble. The WRITE burst is
complete when the write postamble and tWR or tWTR are satisfied.
The time between the WRITE command and the first corresponding rising edge of DQS
(tDQSS) is specified with a relatively wide range (75%–125% of one clock cycle). All
WRITE diagrams show the nominal case. Where the two extreme cases (that is, tDQSS
[MIN] and tDQSS [MAX]) might not be obvious, they have also been included. Figure 36
(page 76) shows the nominal case and the extremes of tDQSS for a burst of 4. Upon
completion of a burst, assuming no other commands have been initiated, the DQ will
remain High-Z and any additional input data will be ignored.
Data for any WRITE burst can be concatenated with or truncated by a subsequent
WRITE command. In either case, a continuous flow of input data can be maintained.
The new WRITE command can be issued on any positive edge of clock following the
previous WRITE command. The first data element from the new burst is applied after
either the last element of a completed burst or the last desired data element of a longer
burst that is being truncated. The new WRITE command should be issued x cycles after
the first WRITE command, where x equals the number of desired data element pairs
(pairs are required by the 2n-prefetch architecture).
Figure 37 (page 77) shows concatenated bursts of 4. An example of nonconsecutive
WRITEs is shown in Figure 38 (page 77). Full-speed random write accesses within a
page or pages can be performed, as shown in Figure 39 (page 78).
Data for any WRITE burst can be followed by a subsequent READ command. To follow a
WRITE without truncating the WRITE burst, tWTR should be met, as shown in Figure 40
(page 79).
Data for any WRITE burst can be truncated by a subsequent READ command, as shown
in Figure 41 (page 80). Note that only the data-in pairs that are registered prior to the
tWTR period are written to the internal array, and any subsequent data-in should be
masked with DM, as shown in Figure 42 (page 81).
Data for any WRITE burst can be followed by a subsequent PRECHARGE command. To
follow a WRITE without truncating the WRITE burst, tWR should be met, as shown in
Figure 43 (page 82).

Data for any WRITE burst can be truncated by a subsequent PRECHARGE command, as
shown in Figure 44 (page 83) and Figure 45 (page 84). Note that only the data-in
pairs that are registered prior to the tWR period are written to the internal array, and any
subsequent data-in should be masked with DM, as shown in Figure 44 (page 83) and
Figure 45 (page 84). After the PRECHARGE command, a subsequent command to the
same bank cannot be issued until tRP is met.

PRECHARGE Operation
The PRECHARGE command is used to deactivate the open row in a particular bank or
the open row in all banks. The bank(s) will be available for a subsequent row access
some specified time (tRP) after the PRECHARGE command is issued. Input A10 deter-
mines whether one or all banks will be precharged, and in the case where only one bank
is precharged (A10 = LOW), inputs BA0 and BA1 select the bank. When all banks are pre-
charged (A10 = HIGH), inputs BA0 and BA1 are treated as “Don’t Care.” After a bank has
been precharged, it is in the idle state and must be activated prior to any READ or
WRITE commands being issued to that bank. A PRECHARGE command will be treated
as a NOP if there is no open row in that bank (idle state), or if the previously open row is
already in the process of precharging.
Auto Precharge
Auto precharge is a feature that performs the same individual bank PRECHARGE func-
tion described previously, without requiring an explicit command. This is accomplished
by using A10 to enable auto precharge in conjunction with a specific READ or WRITE
command. A precharge of the bank/row that is addressed with the READ or WRITE
command is automatically performed upon completion of the READ or WRITE burst.
Auto precharge is nonpersistent; it is either enabled or disabled for each individual
READ or WRITE command.
Auto precharge ensures that the precharge is initiated at the earliest valid stage within a
burst. This earliest valid stage is determined as if an explicit PRECHARGE command
was issued at the earliest possible time without violating tRAS (MIN), as described for
each burst type in Table 20 (page 46). The READ with auto precharge enabled state or
the WRITE with auto precharge enabled state can each be broken into two parts: the ac-
cess period and the precharge period. The access period starts with registration of the
command and ends where tRP (the precharge period) begins. For READ with auto pre-
charge, the precharge period is defined as if the same burst was executed with auto pre-
charge disabled, followed by the earliest possible PRECHARGE command that still ac-
cesses all the data in the burst. For WRITE with auto precharge, the precharge period
begins when tWR ends, with tWR measured as if auto precharge was disabled. In addi-
tion, during a WRITE with auto precharge, at least one clock is required during tWR
time. During the precharge period, the user must not issue another command to the
same bank until tRP is satisfied.
This device supports tRAS lock-out. In the case of a single READ with auto precharge or
single WRITE with auto precharge issued at tRCD (MIN), the internal precharge will be
delayed until tRAS (MIN) has been satisfied.
Bank READ operations with and without auto precharge are shown in Figure 46
(page 87) and Figure 47 (page 88). Bank WRITE operations with and without auto
precharge are shown in Figure 48 (page 89) and Figure 49 (page 90).

Concurrent Auto Precharge
This device supports concurrent auto precharge such that when a READ with auto pre-
charge is enabled or a WRITE with auto precharge is enabled, any command to another
bank is supported, as long as that command does not interrupt the read or write data
transfer already in process. This feature enables the precharge to complete in the bank
in which the READ or WRITE with auto precharge was executed, without requiring an
explicit PRECHARGE command, thus freeing the command bus for operations in other
banks.

AUTO REFRESH Operation
Auto refresh mode is used during normal operation of the device and is analogous to
CAS#-BEFORE-RAS# (CBR) REFRESH in FPM/EDO DRAM. The AUTO REFRESH com-
mand is nonpersistent and 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 AUTO REFRESH command.
For improved efficiency in scheduling and switching between tasks, some flexibility in
the absolute refresh interval is provided. The auto refresh period begins when the AUTO
REFRESH command is registered and ends tRFC later.

Notes: 1. PRE = PRECHARGE; AR = AUTO REFRESH.
2. NOP commands are shown for ease of illustration; other commands may be valid during
this time. CKE must be active during clock positive transitions.
3. NOP or COMMAND INHIBIT are the only commands supported until after tRFC time; CKE
must be active during clock positive transitions.
4. The second AUTO REFRESH is not required and is only shown as an example of two
back-to-back AUTO REFRESH commands.
5. Bank x at T1 is “Don’t Care” if A10 is HIGH at this point; A10 must be HIGH if more than
one bank is active (for example, must precharge all active banks).
6. DM, DQ, and DQS signals are all “Don’t Care”/High-Z for operations shown.
Although it is not a JEDEC requirement, CKE must be active (HIGH) during the auto re-
fresh period to provide support for future functional features. The auto refresh period
begins when the AUTO REFRESH command is registered and ends tRFC later.

SELF REFRESH Operation
The SELF REFRESH command can be used to retain data in the device while the rest of
the system is powered down. When in self refresh mode, the device retains data without
external clocking. The SELF REFRESH command is initiated like an AUTO REFRESH
command, except that CKE is disabled (LOW). All command and address input signals
except CKE are “Don’t Care” during self refresh.
During self refresh, the device is refreshed as defined in the extended mode register.
(see Partial-Array Self Refresh (page 58).) An internal temperature sensor adjusts the re-
fresh rate to optimize device power consumption while ensuring data integrity. (See
Temperature-Compensated Self Refresh (page 57).)
The procedure for exiting self refresh requires a sequence of commands. First, CK must
be stable prior to CKE going HIGH. When CKE is HIGH, the device must have NOP
commands issued for tXSR to complete any internal refresh already in progress.
During SELF REFRESH operation, refresh intervals are scheduled internally and may
vary. These refresh intervals may differ from the specified tREFI time. For this reason,
the SELF REFRESH command must not be used as a substitute for the AUTO REFRESH
command.

Notes: 1. Clock must be stable, cycling within specifications by Ta0, before exiting self refresh
mode.
2. CKE must remain LOW to remain in self refresh.
3. AR = AUTO REFRESH.
4. Device must be in the all banks idle state prior to entering self refresh mode.
5. Either a NOP or DESELECT command is required for tXSR time with at least two clock
pulses.
Power-Down
Power-down is entered when CKE is registered LOW. If power-down occurs when all
banks are idle, this mode is referred to as precharge power-down; if power-down occurs
when there is a row active in any bank, this mode is referred to as active power-down.
Entering power-down deactivates all input and output buffers, including CK and CK#
and excluding CKE. Exiting power-down requires the device to be at the same voltage as
when it entered power-down and received a stable clock. Note that the power-down du-
ration is limited by the refresh requirements of the device.
When in power-down, CKE LOW must be maintained at the inputs of the device, while
all other input signals are “Don’t Care.” The power-down state is synchronously exited
when CKE is registered HIGH (in conjunction with a NOP or DESELECT command).
NOP or DESELECT commands must be maintained on the command bus until tXP is
satisfied. See Figure 53 (page 95) for a detailed illustration of power-down mode.

2. If this command is a PRECHARGE (or if the device is already in the idle state), then the
power-down mode shown is precharge power-down. If this command is an ACTIVE (or if
at least 1 row is already active), then the power-down mode shown is active power-
down.
3. No column accesses can be in progress when power-down is entered.
Deep Power-Down
Deep power-down (DPD) is an operating mode used to achieve maximum power reduc-
tion by eliminating power to the memory array. Data will not be retained after the de-
vice enters DPD mode.
Before entering DPD mode the device must be in the all banks idle state with no activity
on the data bus (tRP time must be met). DPD mode is entered by holding CS# and WE#
LOW with RAS# and CAS# HIGH at the rising edge of the clock while CKE is LOW. CKE
must be held LOW to maintain DPD mode. The clock must be stable prior to exiting
DPD mode. To exit DPD mode, assert CKE HIGH with either a NOP or DESELECT com-
mand present on the command bus. After exiting DPD mode, a full DRAM initialization
sequence is required.

Clock Change Frequency
One method of controlling the power efficiency in applications is to throttle the clock
that controls the device. The clock can be controlled by changing the clock frequency or
stopping the clock.
The device enables the clock to change frequency during operation only if all timing pa-
rameters are met and all refresh requirements are satisfied.
The clock can be stopped altogether if there are no DRAM operations in progress that
would be affected by this change. Any DRAM operation already in process must be
completed before entering clock stop mode; this includes the following timings: tRCD,
tRP, tRFC, tMRD, tWR, and tRPST. In addition, any READ or WRITE burst in progress
must be complete. (See READ Operation and WRITE Operation.)
CKE must be held HIGH with CK = LOW and CK# = HIGH for the full duration of the
clock stop mode. One clock cycle and at least one NOP or DESELECT is required after
the clock is restarted before a valid command can be issued.
