However, JEDEC spec for SDRAM allows you to do up to 9 row refreshes back to back, thus allowing a longer period before doing another batch, which may help with efficiency in some systems
ii) minutes is not that unusual under ideal conditions, tens of minutes would be. iii) refresh is done on a per row basis iv) only a row is refreshed, so i think what they mean by burst is doing up to 9 as mentioned above
