GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The MT4C4001J is a randomly accessed solid-state
memory containing 4,194,304 bits organized in a x4
configuration. During READ or WRITE cycles each bit is
uniquely addressed through the 20 address bits which are
entered 10 bits (A0-A9) at a time. RAS\ is used to latch the
first 10 bits and CAS\ the later 10 bits. A READ or WRITE
cycle is selected with the WE\ input. A logic HIGH on WE\
dictates READ mode while a logic LOW on WE\ dictates
WRITE mode. During a WRITE cycle, data-in (D) is latched
by the falling edge of WE\ or CAS\, whichever occurs last. If
WE\ goes LOW prior to CAS\ going LOW, the output pin(s)
remain open (High-Z) until the next CAS\ cycle. If WE\ goes
LOW after data reaches the output pin(s), Qs are activated and
retain the selected cell data as long as CAS\ remains low
(regardless of WE\ or RAS\). This LATE WE\ pulse results in
a READ-WRITE cycle. The four data inputs and four data
outputs are routed through four pins using common I/O and
pin direction is controlled by WE\ and OE\. FAST-PAGEMODE operations allow faster data operations (READ,
WRITE, or READ-MODIFY-WRITE) within a row address
(A0-A9) defined page boundary . The FAST PAGE MODE

GENERAL DESCRIPTION (cont.)
cycle is always initiated with a row address strobe-in by RAS\
followed by a column address strobed-in by CAS\. CAS\ may
be toggled-in by holding RAS\ LOW and strobing-in different
column addresses, thus executing faster memory cycles.
Returning RAS\ HIGH terminates the FAST PAGE MODE
operation.
Returning RAS\ and CAS\ HIGH terminates a memory cycle
and decreases chip current to a reduced standby level. Also,
the chip is preconditioned for the next cycle during the RAS\
HIGH time. Memory cell data is retained in its corrected
stated by maintaining power and executing any RAS\ cycle
(READ, WRITE, RAS\-ONLY, CAS\-BEFORE-RAS\, or
HIDDEN REFRESH) so that all 1,024 combinations of RAS\
addresses (A0-A9) are executed at least every 16ms,
regardless of sequence. The CBR REFRESH cycle will
invoke the internal refresh counter for automatic RAS\
addressing.
