General Description
General Description
Micron
®
CellularRAM™ products are high-speed CMOS PSRAM memory devices devel-
oped for low-power, portable applications. The MT45W4MW16PCGA is a 64Mb DRAM
core device, organized as 4 Meg x 16 bits. This device includes an industry-standard
asynchronous memory interface found on other low-power SRAM or PSRAM offerings.
For seamless operation on an asynchronous memory bus, CellularRAM products incor-
porate a transparent self-refresh mechanism. The hidden refresh requires no additional
support from the system memory controller and has no significant impact on device
read/write performance.
A user-accessible configuration register (CR) defines how the CellularRAM device
performs on-chip refresh and whether page mode read accesses are permitted. This
register is automatically loaded with a default setting during power-up and can be
updated at any time during normal operation.
Special attention has been focused on standby current consumption during self refresh.
CellularRAM products include three mechanisms to minimize standby current.
1. Partial-array refresh (PAR) enables the system to limit refresh to only that part of the
DRAM array that contains essential data.
2. Temperature-compensated refresh (TCR) uses an on-chip sensor to adjust the refresh
rate to match the device temperature—the refresh rate decreases at lower tempera-
tures to minimize current consumption during standby.
3. Deep power-down (DPD) enables the system to halt the REFRESH operation alto-
gether when no vital information is stored in the device.
This CellularRAM device is compliant with the industry-standard CellularRAM 1.0
feature set established by the CellularRAM Workgroup. The device also includes support
for a device ID register.

Functional Description
Functional Description
In general, the MT45W4MW16PCGA device is a high-density alternative to SRAM and
pseudo-SRAM products, popular in low-power, portable applications.
The MT45W4MW16PCGA contains a 67,108,864-bit DRAM core, organized as 4,194,304
addresses by 16 bits. This device implements the industry-standard, asynchronous
memory interface found on other low-power SRAM or PSRAM offerings. Page mode
accesses are also included as a bandwidth-enhancing extension to the asynchronous
read protocol.
Power-Up Initialization
CellularRAM products include an on-chip voltage sensor used to launch the power-up
initialization process. Initialization will configure the register with the default settings.
V
CC
and V
CC
Q must be applied simultaneously. When they reach a stable level at or
above 1.7V, the device will require 150µs to complete its self-initialization process.
During the initialization period, CE# should remain HIGH. When initialization is
complete, the device is ready for normal operation.

Bus Operating Modes
The MT45W4MW16PCGA CellularRAM product incorporates the industry-standard
asynchronous interface found on other low-power SRAM or PSRAM offerings. This bus
interface supports asynchronous READ and WRITE transfers as well as bandwidth-
enhancing page mode READ operations. The specific interface supported is defined by
the value loaded into the CR.
Asynchronous Mode
CellularRAM products power up in the asynchronous operating mode. This mode uses
the industry-standard SRAM control bus (CE#, OE#, WE#, LB#/UB#). READ operations
(Figure 5 on page 6) are initiated by bringing CE#, OE#, and LB#/UB# LOW while
keeping WE# HIGH. Valid data will be driven out of the I/Os after the specified access
time has elapsed. WRITE operations (Figure 6 on page 6) occur when CE#, WE#, and
LB#/UB# are driven LOW. During asynchronous WRITE operations, the OE# level is a
“Don’t Care,” and WE# will override OE#. The data to be written is latched on the rising
edge of CE#, WE#, or LB#/UB# (whichever occurs first). WE# LOW time must be limited
to
t
CEM.
