Low Enable are disabled (

HIGH), or during a
write operation ( CE LOW and
WE
LOW).
To write to the device, take Chip Enable ( CE LOW) and
Write Enable (
WE
) input LOW. If Byte Low Enable (BLE) is
LOW, then data from I/O pins (I/O
0
through I/O
7
), is written
into the location specified on the address pins (A
0
through
A

). If Byte High Enable (
BHE
) is LOW, then data from I/O
pins (I/O
8
through I/O
15
) is written into the location specified
on the address pins (A
0
through A
19
).
To read from the device, take Chip Enables ( CE LOW) and
Output Enable ( OE ) LOW while forcing the Write Enable
(
WE
) HIGH. If Byte Low Enable (
BLE
) is LOW, then data
from the memory location specified by the address pins will
appear on I/O

. If Byte High Enable (
BHE
) is LOW,
then data from memory will appear on I/O
8
to I/O

the Truth Table for a complete description of read and write
modes. To enable Deep Sleep Mode, drive

Functional Description[1]
The M24L16161ZA is a high-performance CMOS Pseudo
Static RAM organized as 1M words by 16 bits that supports
an asynchronous memory interface. This device features
advanced circuit design to provide ultra-low active current.
This is ideal for portable applications such as cellular
telephones. The device can be put into standby mode when
deselected ( OE HIGH or both
BHE
and
BLE
are HIGH).
The input/output pins (I/O
0
through I/O
15
) are placed in a
high-impedance state when: deselected ( OE HIGH), outputs

Low-Power Modes
At power-up, all four sections of the die are activated and
thePSRAM enters into its default state of full memory size
andrefresh space. This device provides three different
Low-Power Modes.
1.Reduced Memory Size Operation
2.Partial Array Refresh
3.Deep Sleep Mode
4.Temperature Controlled Refresh
only refresh certain portions of the memory in Standby Mode,
as configured by the user through the settings in the Variable
Address Register.
Once
ZZ
returns HIGH in this mode, the PSRAM goes back
to operating in full address refresh. Refer to “Variable Address
Space Register (VAR)” on page4 for the protocol to turn off
sections of the memory in Standby mode. If the VAR register
is not updated after power-up, the PSRAM will be in its default
state. In the default state the whole memory array will be
refreshed in Standby Mode. The 16-Mbit is divided into four
4-Mbit sections allowing certain sections to be active (i.e.,
refreshed).
Reduced Memory Size Operation
In this mode, the 16-Mb PSRAM can be operated as a
12-Mbit,8-Mbit, and 4-Mbit memory block. Refer to “Variable
Address Space Register (VAR)” on page4 for the protocol to
turn on/off sections of the memory. The device remains in
RMS mode until changes to the Variable Address Space
register are made to revert back to a complete 16-Mbit
PSRAM.
Deep Sleep Mode
In this mode, the data integrity in the PSRAM is not
guaranteed. This mode can be used to lower the power
consumption of the PSRAM in an application. This mode can
be enabled and disabled through VAR similar to the RMS and
PAR mode. Deep Sleep Mode is activated by driving
ZZ
LOW. The device stays in the deep sleep mode until
ZZ
is
driven HIGH.
Partial Array Refresh
The Partial Array Refresh mode allows customers to turn off
sections of the memory block in Standby mode (with
ZZ
tied
LOW) to reduce standby current. In this mode the PSRAM will
