Output Drive Strength
EM44AM1684LBC
The output drive strength is defined by bit A1. Normal drive strength outputs are specified to be SSTL_18.
Programming bit A1 = 0 selects normal (100 %) drive strength for all outputs.
Programming bit A1 = 1 will reduce all outputs to approximately 60 % of the SSTL_18 drive strength.
This option is intended for the support of the lighter load and/or point-to-point environments.

Output Disable ( Qoff )
Under normal operation, the DRAM outputs are enabled during Read operation for driving data (Qoff bit in
the EMRS(1) is set to (0). When the Qoff bit is set to 1, the DRAM outputs will be disabled. Disabling the
DRAM outputs allows users to measure IDD currents during Read operations, without including the output
buffer current.
