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. T
Burst function need not be used. New addresses can be load
on every cycle with no degradation of chip performance.
Functional Description
Applications
The GS840F18/32/36A is a 4,718,592-bit (4,194,304-bit for
x32 version) 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. The
GS840F18/32/36A is available in a JEDEC standard 100-lead
TQFP package.
Controls
Addresses, data I/Os, chip enables (E

), 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
Designing For Compatibility
The JEDEC Standard for Burst RAMS calls for a FT mode
option (pin 14 on TQFP). Board sites for Flow Through Bu
RAMS should be designed with V
SS
connected to the FT p
location to ensure the broadest access to multiple vendor
sources. Boards designed with FT pin pads tied low may be
stuffed with GSI’s Pipeline/Flow Through-configurable Bu
RAMS or any vendor’s Flow Through or configurable Burs
SRAM. Bumps designed with the FT pin location tied high
floating must employ a non-configurable Flow Through Bu
RAM, like this RAM, to achieve flow through functionality
Byte Write and Global Write
Byte write operation is performed by using Byte Write ena
(BW) input combined with one or more individual byte wri
signals (Bx). In addition, Global Write (GW) is available fo
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 GS840F18/32/36A operates on a 3.3 V power supply a
all inputs/outputs are 3.3 V- and 2.5 V-compatible. Separat
output power (V
DDQ
) pins are used to decouple output nois
from the internal circuit.
