BCLK Frequency Register

4-16
NCEBEN Setting the NCEBEN control bit enables the MCECC pair
to assert TEA when a non-correctable error occurs
during a local bus access to memory. In some cases setting
NCEBEN causes DRAM accesses to be delayed by one
clock. This delay is incurred when the access is a local bus
(or scrub) read and the FSTRD bit is set.
NCEIEN When NCEIEN is set, the logging of a non-correctable
error causes the INT signal pin to pulse true. Note that
NCEIEN has no effect on DRAM access time.
RWB3
Read/Write Bit 3 is a general purpose read/write bit.
RWB4
Read/Write Bit 4 is a general purpose read/write bit.
RWB5
Read/Write Bit 5 is a general purpose read/write bit.
BAD22, BAD23
These are the lower two bits of the DRAM base address
described in the previous register.
The Bus Clock (BCLK) Frequency register should be programmed with
the hexadecimal value of the operating clock frequency in MHz (i.e., $19
for 25MHz and $21 for 33MHz). The MCECC sector pair uses the value
programmed in this register to control the Prescaler counter. The Prescaler
counter increments to $FF and then it is loaded with the two's complement
of the value in the BCLK Frequency register. This produces a 1MHz clock
that is used by the refresh timer and the scrubber. When the BCLK
Frequency register is correctly programmed with the BCLK frequency, the
DRAMs are refreshed approximately once every 15.6 microseconds. After
power-up, this register is initialized to $19 (for 25MHz).
