CAS Latency
Operating Mode
The CAS latency is the delay, in clock cycles, between the
registration of a READ command and the availability of the
first piece of output data. The latency can be set to two or
three clocks.
ThenormaloperatingmodeisselectedbysettingM7andM8
to zero; the other combinations of values for M7 and M8 are
reserved for future use and/or test modes. The programmed
burst length applies to both READ and WRITE bursts.
If a READ command is registered at clock edge n, and the
latencyism clocks, thedatawillbeavailablebyclockedge
n+m.TheDQswillstartdrivingasaresultoftheclockedge
one cycle earlier (n + m - 1), and provided that the relevant
access times are met, the data will be valid by clock edge
n + m. For example, assuming that the clock cycle time is
such that all relevant access times are met, if a READ

Test modes and reserved states should not be used
because unknown operation or incompatibility with future
versions may result.
Write Burst Mode
When M9 = 0, the burst length programmed via M0-M2
appliestobothREADandWRITEbursts;whenM9=1, the
programmedburstlengthappliestoREADbursts,butwrite
accesses are single-location (nonburst) accesses.
