Data Mask
The SDRAM has a Data Mask function that can be used in conjunction with data read and write cycles. When
the Data Mask is activated (DQM high) during a write cycle, the write operation is prohibited immediately
(zero clock latency). If the Data Mask is activated during a read cycle, the data outputs are disabled and
become high impedance after a two clock delay, independent of CAS latency.

No Operation Command
The No Operation Command should be used in cases when the SDRAM is in a idle or a wait state. The pur-
pose of the No Operation Command is to prevent the SDRAM from registering any unwanted commands
between operations. A No Operation Command is registered when CS is low with RAS, CAS, and WE held
high at the rising edge of the clock. A No Operation Command will not terminate a previous operation that is
still executing, such as a burst read or write cycle.
Deselect Command
The Deselect Command performs the same function as a No Operation Command. Deselect Command
occurs when CS is brought high, the RAS, CAS, and WE signals become don’t cares.
