Functional Description
The FLEx18™ family includes 512 Kbit, 1 Mbit, 2 Mbit, 4 Mbit,
and 9 Mbit pipelined, synchronous, true dual port static RAMs
that are high speed, low power 3.3V CMOS. Two ports are
provided, permitting independent, simultaneous access to any
location in memory. The result of writing to the same location by
more than one port at the same time is undefined. Registers on
control, address, and data lines allow for minimal setup and hold
time.
During a Read operation, data is registered for decreased cycle
time. Each port contains a burst counter on the input address
register. After externally loading the counter with the initial
address, the counter increments the address internally (more
details to follow). The internal Write pulse width is independent
of the duration of the R/W
is self-timed to allow the shortest possible cycle times.
A HIGH on CE0
or LOW on CE1 for one clock cycle powers down
the internal circuitry to reduce the static power consumption. One
cycle with chip enables asserted is required to reactivate the
outputs.
Additional features include: readback of burst-counter internal
address value on address lines, counter-mask registers to
control the counter wrap around, counter interrupt (CNTINT
flags, readback of mask register value on address lines,
retransmit functionality, interrupt flags for message passing,
JTAG for boundary scan, and asynchronous Master Reset
(MRST
).

The FLEx18 family devices undergo a complete reset by taking

Mailbox Interrupts
The upper two memory locations may be used for message
passing and permit communications between ports. Table 2

port and 7FFFE is the mailbox for the left port. Table 2 shows that

The interrupt flag is set in a flow-through mode (that is, it follows
the clock edge of the writing port). Also, the flag is reset in a
flow-through mode (that is, it follows the clock edge of the
reading port).
Each port can read the other port’s mailbox without resetting the
interrupt. And each port can write to its own mailbox without
setting the interrupt. If an application does not require message

The counter register contains the address used to access the
RAM array. It is changed only by the Counter Load, Increment,
Counter Reset, and by master reset (MRST
) operations.
The mask register value affects the Increment and Counter
Reset operations by preventing the corresponding bits of the
counter register from changing. It also affects the counter
interrupt output (CNTINT
). The mask register is changed only by
the Mask Load and Mask Reset operations and by the MRST
The mask register defines the counting range of the counter
register. It divides the counter register into two regions: zero or
more ‘0s’ in the most significant bits define the masked region,
one or more ‘1s’ in the least significant bits define the unmasked
region. Bit 0 may also be ‘0,’ masking the least significant counter
bit and causing the counter to increment by two instead of one.
The mirror register is used to reload the counter register on
increment operations (see Retransmit on page 8). It always
contains the value last loaded into the counter register, and is
changed only by the Counter Load, and by the MRST
instructions. Table 3 on page 7 summarizes the operation of these
registers and the required input control signals. The MRST
control signal is asynchronous. All the other co ntrol signals in
Table 3 on page 7 (CNT/MSK
, CNTRST, ADS, CNTEN) are
synchronized to the port’s CLK. All these counter and mask
operations are independent of the port’s chip enable inputs (CE0
and CE1).
Counter enable (CNTEN) inputs are provided to stall the
operation of the address input and use the internal address
generated by the internal counter for fast, interleaved memory
applications. A port’s burst counter is loaded when the port’s
address strobe (ADS) and CNTEN signals are LOW. When the
port’s CNTEN
is asserted and the ADS is deasserted, the
address counter increments on each LOW to HIGH transition of
that port’s clock signal. This reads and writes one word from and
to each successive address location until CNTEN
s deasserted.
The counter can address the entire memory array, and loops
back to the start. Counter reset (CNTRST) is used to reset the
unmasked portion of the burst counter to I/0s. A counte r-mask
register is used to control the counter wrap.

Counter Reset Operation
All unmasked bits of the counter are reset to ‘0.’ All masked bits
remain unchanged. The mirror register is loaded with the value
of the burst counter. A Mask Reset followed by a Counter Reset
resets the counter and mirror registers to 00000, as does master
reset (MRST
).
Counter Load Operation
The address counter and mirror registers are both loaded with
the address value presented at the address lines.
Counter Increment Operation
When the address counter register is initially loaded with an
external address, the counter can internally increment the
address value, potentially addressing the entire memory array.
Only the unmasked bits of the counter register are incremented.
The corresponding bit in the mask register must be a ‘1’ for a
counter bit to change. The counter register is incremented by 1
if the least significant bit is unmasked, and by 2 if it is masked. If
all unmasked bits are ‘1,’ the next increment wraps the counter
back to the initially loaded value. If an Increment results in all the
unmasked bits of the counter being ‘1s,’ a counter interrupt flag

on page 10shows the counter mask register loaded with a mask
value of 0003Fh unmasking the first 6 bits with bit ‘0’ as the LSB
and bit ‘16’ as the MSB. The maximum value the mask register
can be loaded with is 3FFFFh. Setting the mask register to this
value allows the counter to access the entire memory space. The

An increment that
address counter is then loaded with an initial value of 8h. The
base address bits (in this case, the 6th address through the 16th
address) are loaded with an address value but do not increment
after the counter is configured for increment operation. The
counter address starts at address 8h. The counter increments its
internal address value until it reaches the mask register value of
3Fh. The counter wraps around the memory block to location 8h

Counter Hold Operation
The value of all three registers can be constantly maintained
unchanged for an unlimited number of clock cycles. Such
operation is useful in applications where wait states are needed,
or when address is available a few cycles ahead of data in a
shared bus interface.
Counter Interrupt
The counter interrupt (CNTINT) is asserted LOW when an
increment operation results in the unmasked portion of the
counter register being all ‘1s.’ It is deasserted HIGH when an
Increment operation results in any other value. It is also
de-asserted by Counter Reset, Counter Load, Mask Reset and
Mask Load operations, and by MRST
.
Counter Readback Operation
The internal value of the counter register can be read out on the
address lines. Readback is pipelined; the address is valid t
after the next rising edge of the port’s clock. If address readback

Retransmit
Retransmit is a feature that allows the Read of a block of memory
more than once without the need to reload the initial address.
This eliminates the need for external logic to store and route
data. It also reduces the complexity of the system design and
saves board space. An internal mirror register is used to store
the initially loaded address counter value. When the counter
unmasked portion reaches its maximum value set by the mask
register, it wraps back to the initial value stored in this mirror
register. If the counter is continuously configured in increment
mode, it increments again to its maximum value and wraps back
to the value initially stored into the mirror register. Thus, the
repeated access of the same data is allowed without the need
for any external logic.
Mask Reset Operation
The mask register is reset to all ‘1s,’ which unmasks every bit of
the counter. Master reset (MRST
to all ‘1s’.
) also resets the mask register
Mask Load Operation
The mask register is loaded with the address value presented at
the address lines. Not all values permit correct increment operations. Permitted values are of the form 2
most significant bit to the least significant bit, permitted values
have zero or more ‘0s,’ one or more ‘1s,’ or one ‘0.’ Thus 3FFFF,
003FE, and 00001 are permitted values, but 3F0FF , 003FC, and
00000 are not.

Counting by Two
When the least significant bit of the mask register is ‘0,’ the
counter increments by two. This may be used to connect the x18
devices as a 36-bit single port SRAM in which the counter of one
port counts even addresses and the counter of the other port
counts odd addresses. This even-odd address scheme stores
one half of the 36-bit data in even memory locations, and the
other half in odd memory locations.
