- Multi-Purpose Register (MPR)
The Multi Purpose Register (MPR) function is used to Read out a predefined system timing calibration bit sequence.

To enable the MPR, a MODE Register Set (MRS) command must be issued to MR3 Register with bit A2 = 1. Prior
to issuing the MRS command, all banks must be in the idle state (all banks precharged and tRP met). Once the
MPR is enabled, any subsequent RD or RDA commands will be redirected to the Multi Purpose Register. The
resulting operation, when a RD or RDA command is issued, is defined by MR3 bits A[1:0] when the MPR is enabled
as shown in table 20When the MPR is enabled, only RD or RDA commands are allowed until a subsequent MRS
command is issued with the MPR disabled (MR3 bit A2 = 0). Note that in MPR mode RDA has the same
functionality as a READ command which means the auto precharge part of RDA is ignored. Power-Down mode,
Self-Refresh and any other non-RD/RDA command is not allowed during MPR enable mode. The RESET function
is supported during MPR enable mode.
