196 Datasheet, Volume 2 of 2
7.25 Refresh timing parameters (TC)—Offset 4E3Ch
Refresh timing parameters
Access Method
Default: B41004h
7.26 Power Management DIMM Idle Energy (PM)—
Offset 4E60h
This register defines the energy of an idle DIMM with CKE on. Each 6-bit field
corresponds to an integer multiple of the base DRAM command energy for that DIMM.
There are 2 6-bit fields, one per DIMM.
Access Method
Default: 0h
Type: MEM
(Size: 32 bits)
Offset: [B:0, D:0, F:0] + 4E3Ch
