The AS4C1M16F5 is a high performance 16-megabit CMOS Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM) organized as
1,048,576 words × 16 bits. The AS4C1M16F5 is fabricated using advanced CMOS technology and innovative design
techniques resulting in high speed, extremely low power and wide operating margins at component and system levels. The
Alliance 16Mb DRAM family is optimized for use as main memory in personal and portable PCs, workstations, and multimedia
and router switch applications.
The AS4C1M16F5 features high speed page mode operation where read and write operations within a single row (or page)
can be executed at very high speed (15 ns from
addresses are alternately latched into input buffers using the falling edge of
