C0DRB0—Channel A DRAM Rank Boundary Address 0
MMIO Range:
MCHBAR
Address Offset:
100h
Default Value:
00h
Access:
R/W
Size:
8 bits
The
DRAM Rank Boundary Register
defines the upper boundary address of each DRAM rank
with a granularity of 32 MB. Each rank has its own single-byte
DRB
register. These registers are
used to determine which chip select will be active for a given address.

Single Channel or Asymmetric Channels Example
If the channels are independent, addresses in Channel B should begin where addresses in Channel
A left off, and the address of the first rank of Channel A can be calculated from the technology
(256 Mbit, 512 Mbit, or 1 Gbit) and the x8 or x16 configuration. With independent channels, a
value of 01h in
C0DRB0
indicates that 32 MB of DRAM has been populated in the first rank, and
the top address in that rank is 32 MB.
