LPDDR2/DDR3: JEDEC Compliance for Minimum Self-Refresh Command Interval

When using LPDDR2 or DDR3 EMIF Self-Refresh, it is possible to violate the minimum self-refresh command interval requirement specified in the JEDEC standard LPDDR2 Specifications (JESD209-2F, June 2013) and DDR3 SDRAM Specifications (JESD79-3F, July 2010). This requirement states: "The use of Self Refresh mode introduces the possibility that an internally timed refresh event can be missed when CKE is raised for exit from Self Refresh mode. Upon exit from Self Refresh, it is required that at least one Refresh command (8 per-bank or 1 all-bank) is issued before entry into a subsequent Self Refresh."

To meet this minimum when using the LPDDR2 or DDR3 EMIF and Self-Refresh mode (setting PWR_MGMT_CTRL.REG_LP_MODE=2), set the PWR_MGMT_CTRL.REG_SR_TIM register to a time greater than the refresh rate of the LPDDR2 or DDR3.

For example, if the refresh rate for the DDR3 is 7.8 µs and the DDR3 is running at 303 MHz, the minimum time to ensure the above requirement is:

7.8 µs / 3.3 ns = 2363 DDR clock cycles

Thus, SR_TIM must be no less than 0x9 (4096 clocks).
