Description
SCKE_A[3:0]
O
SSTL-
2/1.8
Clock Enable: (1 per Rank) SACKE is used to initialize the SDRAMs
during power-up, to power-down SDRAM ranks, and to place all SDRAM
ranks into and out of self-refresh during Suspend-to-RAM.
SODT_A[3:0]
O
On Die Termination (DDR2 only): Active On-die Termination Control
SSTL-1.8
signals for DDR2 devices.
2.3
DDR/DDR2 DRAM Channel B Interface
Note that the 82910GL, 82915GL, and 82915PL (G)MCH only supports DDR DRAM.

Description
SCLK_B[5:0]
O
SSTL-
2/1.8
SDRAM Differential Clock: (3 per DIMM) SCLK_Bx and its complement
SCLK_Bx# signal make a differential clock pair output. The crossing of
the positive edge of SCLK_Bx and the negative edge of its complement
SCLK_Bx# are used to sample the command and control signals on the
SDRAM.
SCLK_B[5:0]#
SCS_B[3:0]#
SMA_B[13:0]
SBS_B[2:0]
O
SSTL-
2/1.8
SDRAM Complementary Differential Clock: (3 per DIMM) These are
the complementary differential DDR/DDR2 clock signals.
O
SSTL-
2/1.8
Chip Select: (1 per Rank) These signals select particular SDRAM
components during the active state. There is one chip select for each
SDRAM rank
O
SSTL-
2/1.8
Memory Address: These signals are used to provide the multiplexed
row and column address to the SDRAM
O
Bank Select: These signals define which banks are selected within
SSTL-
2/1.8
each SDRAM rank
DDR2: 1-Gb technology is 8 banks.
DDR: 1-Gb technology is 4 banks. SBS_B[2] is not used
SRAS_B#
SCAS_B#
SWE_B#
O
SSTL-
2/1.8
Row Address Strobe: This signal is used with SCAS_B# and SWE_B#
(along with SCS_B#) to define the SDRAM commands
O
SSTL-
2/1.8
Column Address Strobe: This signal is used with SRAS_B# and
SWE_B# (along with SCS_B#) to define the SDRAM commands.
O
Write Enable: This signal is used with SCAS_B# and SRAS_B# (along
SSTL-
2/1.8
with SCS_B#) to define the SDRAM commands.
SDQ_B[63:0]
I/O
SSTL-
2/1.8
2x
Data Lines: SDQ_Bx signals interface to the SDRAM data bus
SDM_B[7:0]
O
SSTL-
2/1.8
2x
Data Mask: When activated during writes, the corresponding data
groups in the SDRAM are masked. There is one SDM_Bx signal for
every data byte lane.
