1.Overview of the External Bus Interface
Capable of setting timing values such as the CAS latency and RAS - CAS delay (SDRAM area)
Capable of controlling the distributed/centralized auto - refresh, self - refresh, and other refresh timings
(SDRAM area)
Fly-by transfer by DMA can be performed.
Transfer between memory and I/O can be performed in a single access operation.
The memory wait cycle can be synchronized with the I/O wait cycle in fly-by transfer.
The hold time can be secured by only extending transfer source access.
Idle/recovery cycles specific to fly-by transfer can be set.
External bus arbitration using BRQ and BGRNT can be performed.
Pins that are not used by the external interface can be used as general-purpose I/O ports through
settings.
