Subject: [PATCH V2 7/8] memory: emif: errata i743: Prohibit usage of Power-Down mode
Date: Sat, 16 Mar 2013 11:46:47 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1363414608-7448-8-git-send-email-lokeshvutla@ti.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1363414608-7448-1-git-send-email-lokeshvutla@ti.com>

From: Grygorii Strashko <grygorii.strashko@ti.com>

ERRATA DESCRIPTION :
The EMIF supports power-down state for low power. The EMIF
automatically puts the SDRAM into power-down after the memory is
not accessed for a defined number of cycles and the
EMIF_PWR_MGMT_CTRL[10:8] REG_LP_MODE bit field is set to 0x4.
As the EMIF supports automatic output impedance calibration, a ZQ
calibration long command is issued every time it exits active
power-down and precharge power-down modes. The EMIF waits and
blocks any other command during this calibration.
The EMIF does not allow selective disabling of ZQ calibration upon
exit of power-down mode. Due to very short periods of power-down
cycles, ZQ calibration overhead creates bandwidth issues and
increases overall system power consumption. On the other hand,
issuing ZQ calibration long commands when exiting self-refresh is
still required.

WORKAROUND :
Because there is no power consumption benefit of the power-down due
to the calibration and there is a performance risk, the guideline
is to not allow power-down state and, therefore, to not have set
the EMIF_PWR_MGMT_CTRL[10:8] REG_LP_MODE bit field to 0x4.

This is applicable only for EMIF4D IP used in OMAP4 Soc's.
