Hi,
BL is burst length.
The burst length determines the maximum number of column locations that can be accessed for a given READ or WRITE command.

In LPC Microcontroller like LPC43xx, LPC177x_8x,LPC407x_8x it can be 4 or 8.
CL is CAS latency which is explained in JEDEC as

Quote:
The number of clock cycles occurring between the registration of a read command and the active clock transition coincident with the availability of the first resultant output data.
