Description
The IBMN364404, IBMN364804, and IBMN364164
are four-bank Synchronous DRAMs organized as
4Mbit x 4 I/O x 4 Bank, 2Mbit x 8 I/O x 4 Bank, and
1Mbit x 16 I/O x 4 Bank, respectively. These syn-
chronous devices achieve high-speed data transfer
rates of up to 150MHz by employing a pipeline chip
architecture that synchronizes the output data to a
system clock. The chip is fabricated with IBM’s
advanced 64Mbit single transistor CMOS DRAM
process technology.
The device is designed to comply with all JEDEC
standards set for synchronous DRAM products,
both electrically and mechanically. All of the control,
address, and data input/output (I/O or DQ) circuits
are synchronized with the positive edge of an exter-
nally supplied clock.
RAS, CAS, WE, and CS are pulsed signals which
are examined at the positive edge of each externally
applied clock (CLK). Internal chip operating modes
are defined by combinations of these signals and a
command decoder initiates the necessary timings
for each operation. A fourteen bit address bus
accepts address data in the conventional RAS/CAS
multiplexing style. Twelve row addresses (A0-A11)
and two bank select addresses (A12, A13) are
strobed with RAS. Ten column addresses (A0-A9)
plus bank select addresses and A10 are strobed
with CAS. Column address A9 is dropped on the x8
device and column addresses A8 and A9 are
dropped on the x16 device.
Prior to any access operation, the CAS latency,
burst length, and burst sequence must be pro-
grammed into the device by address inputs A0-A9
during a mode register set cycle. In addition, it is
possible to program a multiple burst sequence with
single write cycle for write through cache operation.
Operating the four memory banks in an interleave
fashion allows random access operation to occur at
a higher rate than is possible with standard DRAMs.
A sequential and gapless data rate of up to 150MHz
is possible depending on burst length, CAS latency,
and speed grade of the device. Auto Refresh (CBR),
Self Refresh, and Low Power operation are sup-
ported.

Function
The system clock input. All of the SDRAM inputs are sampled on the rising edge of the clock.
Activates the CLK signal when high and deactivates the CLK signal when low. By deactivating the
clock, CKE low initiates the Power Down mode, Suspend mode, or the Self Refresh mode.

CS enables the command decoder when low and disables the command decoder when high.
Active Low When the command decoder is disabled, new commands are ignored but previous operations
continue.
Active Low
—
When sampled at the positive rising edge of the clock, CAS, RAS, and WE define the operation to
be executed by the SDRAM.
Selects which bank is to be active.
During a Bank Activate command cycle, A0-A11 defines the row address (RA0-RA11) when sam-
pled at the rising clock edge.
During a Read or Write command cycle, A0-A9 defines the column address (CA0-CA9) when
sampled at the rising clock edge.
A10 is used to invoke auto-precharge operation at the end of the burst read or write cycle. If A10 is
high, auto-precharge is selected and BS0, BS1 defines the bank to be precharged. If A10 is low,
autoprecharge is disabled.
During a Precharge command cycle, A10 is used in conjunction with BS0, BS1 to control which
bank(s) to precharge. If A10 is high, all banks will be precharged regardless of the state of BS. If
A10 is low, then BS0 and BS1 are used to define which bank to precharge.
Data Input/Output pins operate in the same manner as on conventional DRAMs.
The Data Input/Output mask places the DQ buffers in a high impedance state when sampled high.
In x16 products, the LDQM and UDQM control the lower and upper byte I/O buffers, respectively.
In Read mode, DQM has a latency of two clock cycles and controls the output buffers like an out-
put enable. DQM low turns the output buffers on and DQM high turns them off. In Write mode,
DQM has a latency of zero and operates as a word mask by allowing input data to be written if it is
low but blocks the write operation if DQM is high.
Power and ground for the input buffers and the core logic.
Isolated power supply and ground for the output buffers to provide improved noise immunity.
