SCD and DCD Pipelined Reads
The GS88237BB/D is a SCD (Single Cycle Deselect) and
DCD (Dual Cycle Deselect) pipelined synchronous SRAM.
DCD SRAMs pipeline disable commands to the same degree
as read commands. SCD SRAMs pipeline deselect commands
one stage less than read commands. SCD RAMs begin turning
off their outputs immediately after the deselect command has
been captured in the input registers. DCD RAMs hold the
deselect command for one full cycle and then begin turning off
their outputs just after the second rising edge of clock. The user
may configure this SRAM for either mode of operation using
the SCD mode input.
Byte Write and Global Write
Byte write operation is performed by using Byte Write enable
(BW) input combined with one or more individual byte write
signals (Bx). In addition, Global Write (GW) is available for
writing all bytes at one time, regardless of the Byte Write
control inputs.
FLXDrive™
The ZQ pin allows selection between high drive strength (ZQ
low) for multi-drop bus applications and normal drive strength
(ZQ floating or high) point-to-point applications. See the
Output Driver Characteristics chart for details.
Sleep Mode
Low power (Sleep mode) is attained through the assertion
(High) of the ZZ signal, or by stopping the clock (CK).
Memory data is retained during Sleep mode.
Core and Interface Voltages
The GS88237BB/D operates on a 2.5 V or 3.3 V power supply.
All input are 3.3 V and 2.5 V compatible. Separate output
power (V
DDQ
) pins are used to decouple output noise from the
internal circuits and are 3.3 V and 2.5 V compatible.
Functional Description
Applications
The GS88237BB/D is a 9,437,184-bit high performance
synchronous SRAM with a 2-bit burst address counter.
Although of a type originally developed for Level 2 Cache
applications supporting high performance CPUs, the device
now finds application in synchronous SRAM applications,
ranging from DSP main store to networking chip set support.
Controls
Addresses, data I/Os, chip enable (E1), address burst control
inputs (ADSP, ADSC, ADV), and write control inputs (Bx,
BW, GW) are synchronous and are controlled by a positive-
edge-triggered clock input (CK). Output enable (G) and power
down control (ZZ) are asynchronous inputs. Burst cycles can
be initiated with either ADSP or ADSC inputs. In Burst mode,
subsequent burst addresses are generated internally and are
controlled by ADV. The burst address counter may be
configured to count in either linear or interleave order with the
Linear Burst Order (LBO) input. The Burst function need not
be used. New addresses can be loaded on every cycle with no
degradation of chip performance.
