Burst function need not be used. New addresses can be loaded
on every cycle with no degradation of chip performance.
Designing for Compatibility
The JEDEC standard for Burst RAMS calls for a FT mode pin
option on Pin 14. Board sites for flow through Burst RAMS
should be designed with V
SS
connected to the FT pin 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 Burst RAMs or any
vendor’s flow through or configurable Burst SRAM. Boards
designed with the FT pin location tied high or floating must
employ a non-configurable flow through Burst RAM, like this
RAM, to achieve flow through functionality.
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 GS880F18/32/36AT operates on a 2.5 V or 3.3 V power
supply. All input are 3.3 V and 2.5 V compatible. Separate
output power (V
DDQ
) pins are used to decouple output noise
from the internal circuits and are 3.3 V and 2.5 V compatible.
Functional Description
Applications
The GS880F18/32/36AT is a 9,437,184-bit (8,388,608-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.
Controls
Addresses, data I/Os, chip enables (E1, E2, E3), 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
