Processor system using synchronous dynamic memory

摘要

A processor system including: a processor and controller core connected via an internal bus; and a plurality of synchronous memory chips connected to the processor via an external bus; the controller core including a mode register selected by an address signal from the processor core and written with an information by a data signal from the processor core to select the operation mode of the plurality of synchronous memory chips, and a control unit to prescribe the operate mode to the plurality of synchronous memory chips based on the information written in the mode register, wherein the controller core outputs a mode setting signal based on the information written in the mode register or an access address signal from the processor core to the plurality of synchronous memory chips via the external bus selectively; and wherein the clock signal is commonly supplied to the plurality of synchronous memory chips.
