Bits 11:0 – COUNT[11:0] MPDDRC Refresh Timer Count

This 12-bit field is loaded into a timer which generates the refresh pulse. Each time the refresh pulse is generated, a refresh sequence is initiated.

The SDRAM requires auto-refresh cycles at an average periodic interval of Trefi. The value to be loaded depends on the MPDDRC clock frequency MCK (main system bus clock) and average periodic interval of Trefi.

For example, for an SDRAM with Trefi = 7.8 μs and a 133 MHz (7.5 ns) main system bus clock, the value of the COUNT field is configured: ((7.8 × 10-6) / (7.5 × 10-9)) = 1040 or 0x0410.
