An initial pause of 200 µs is required after power-up followed by any 8 RAS cycles before proper device operation is achieved. In the case of an internal
refresh counter, a minimum of 8 CAS-before-RAS initialization cycles instead of 8 RAS cycles are required. 8 initialization cycles are required after
extended periods of bias without clocks (greater than 8 ms).
