1.8 V I/O
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.
Flow Through/Pipeline Reads
The function of the Data Output register can be controlled by
the user via the FT mode pin (Pin 14). Holding the FT mode
pin low places the RAM in Flow Through mode, causing
output data to bypass the Data Output Register. Holding FT
high places the RAM in Pipeline mode, activating the rising-
edge-triggered Data Output Register.
DCD Pipelined Reads
The GS8641EV18/32/36F is a DCD (Dual Cycle Deselect)
pipelined synchronous SRAM. SCD (Single Cycle Deselect)
versions are also available. DCD SRAMs pipeline disable
commands to the same degree as read commands. 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.
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.
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 GS8641EV18/32/36F operates on a 1.8 V power supply.
All input are 1.8 V compatible. Separate output power (V
DDQ
)
pins are used to decouple output noise from the internal circuits
and are 1.8 V compatible.
Functional Description
Applications
The GS8641EV18/32/36F is a 75,497,472-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
