6.7.9  Wait Control 
There are two ways of inserting wait states in a DRAM access cycle: program wait insertion and 
pin wait insertion using the WAIT pin. 
Wait states are inserted to extend the CAS assertion period in a read access to DRAM space, and 
to extend the write data setup time relative to the falling edge of CAS in a write access. 
(1)  Program Wait Insertion 
When the bit in ASTCR corresponding to an area designated as DRAM space is set to 1, from 0 to 
7 wait states can be inserted automatically between the T
c1
 state and T
c2
 state, according to the 
settings in WTCR. 
(2)  Pin Wait Insertion 
When the WAITE bit in BCR is set to 1 and the ASTCR bit is set to 1, wait input by means of the 
WAIT pin is enabled. When DRAM space is accessed in this state, a program wait (T
w
) is first 
inserted. If the WAIT pin is low at the falling edge of φ in the last T
c1
 or T
w
 state, another T
w
 state 
is inserted. If the WAIT pin is held low, T
w
 states are inserted until it goes high. 
Figures 6.38 and 6.39 show examples of wait cycle insertion timing in the case of 2-state and 3-
state column address output cycles.
