2.4.6 Write (WRT) Command
Prior to a WRT command, the desired bank and row are activated by the ACTV command. Following the
WRT command, a write latency is incurred. Write latency is equal to CAS latency minus 1. All writes have
a burst length of 8. The use of the DSDDQM outputs allows byte and halfword writes to be executed.
Figure 9 shows the timing for a write on the DDR2 memory controller.
If the transfer request is for less than 8 words, depending on the scheduling result and the pending
commands, the DDR2 memory controller can:
Mask out the additional data using DSDDQM outputs
Terminate the write burst and start a new write burst
The DDR2 memory controller does not perform the DEAC command until page information becomes
invalid.

2.5 Memory Width, Byte Alignment, and Endianness
The DDR2 memory controller supports memory widths of 16 bits and 32 bits. Table 4 summarizes the
addressable memory ranges on the DDR2 memory controller.
