6.3.3.3 LOGIC DELAY
Logic delay
is
the time required for an output to change with respect to an input.
Devices usually have the following specifications: typical delays, maximum delays and
minimum delays. For this chapter
we
will
use worst case logic delays for the commercial
operating range.
6.3.3.4 ADDRESS BUS TIMINGS
The first timings to consider are the address set up and hold times for
RAS#
and
CAS
# . The address becomes active from the start of phase one and are valid after the
address valid delay (T6). The address then passes through the
MUX before getting to
the DRAM.
RAS#
is
generated on the following phase one CLK2 edge
by
DRAMPI.
The worst case address set up time occurs when the address
is
delayed the maximum
time and
RAS#
is
delayed the minimum amount of time.
