- Write Recovery
The programmed WR value MR0 (bits A9, A10, and A11) is used for the auto precharge feature along with tRP
to determine tDAL. WR (write recovery for auto-precharge) min in clock cycles is calculated by dividing tWR
(ns) by tCK (ns) and rounding up to the next integer: WR min [cycles] = Roundup (tWR [ns]/tCK [ns]). The WR
must be programmed to be equal or larger than tWR (min).
- Precharge PD DLL
MR0 (bit A12) is used to select the DLL usage during precharge power-down mode. When MR0 (A12=0), or
‘slow-exit’, the DLL is frozen after entering precharge power-down (for potential power savings) and upon exit
requires tXPDLL to be met prior to the next valid command. When MR0 (A12=1), or ‘fast-exit’, the DLL is
maintained after entering precharge power-down and upon exiting power-down requires tXP to be met prior to
the next valid command.
Mode Register MR1
The Mode Register MR1 stores the data for enabling or disabling the DLL, output strength, Rtt_Nom
impedance, additive latency, WRITE leveling enable and Qoff. The Mode Register 1 is written by asserting low
on CS#, RAS#, CAS#, WE#, high on BA0 and low on BA1 and BA2, while controlling the states of address pins
according to the following figure.

In Write leveling Mode (MR1 [bit7] = 1) with MR1 [bit12] =1, all RTT_Nom settings are allowed; in Write
Leveling Mode (MR1 [bit7] = 1) with MR1 [bit12]=0, only RTT_Nom settings of RZQ/2, RZQ/4 and RZQ/6 are
allowed.
Note 4:
If RTT_Nom is used during Writes, only the values RZQ/2, RZQ/4 and RZQ/6 are allowed.
