Functional Description
The AS7C3364NTF32B/36B family is a high performance CMOS 2 Mbit synchronous Static Random Access Memory
(SRAM) organized as 65,536 words × 32 or 36 bits and incorporates a LATE Write.
This variation of the 2Mb+ synchronous SRAM uses the No Turnaround Delay (NTD
write operation that improves bandwidth over flowthrough burst devices. In a normal flowthrough burst device, the write data,
command, and address are all applied to the device on the same clock edge. If a read command follows this write command,
the system must wait for one dead cycle for valid data to become available. This dead cycle can significantly reduce overall
bandwidth for applications requiring random access or read-modify-write operations.
™
NTD
devices use the memory bus more efficiently by introducing a write latency which matches the one-cycle flowthrough read latency. Write data is applied one cycle after the write command and address, allowing the read pipeline to clear.
With NTD

, write and read operations can be used in any order without producing dead bus cycles.
low to perform write cycles. Byte write enable controls write access to specific bytes, or can be tied low for full 36
bit writes. Write enable signals, along with the write address, are registered on a rising edge of the clock. Write data is applied
to the device one clock cycle later. Unlike some asynchronous SRAMs, output enable OE
operations; it can be tied low for normal operations. Outputs go to a high impedance state when the device is de-selected by
any of the three chip enable inputs.
Use the ADV (burst advance) input to perform burst read, write and deselect operations. When ADV is high, external addresses, chip

device operations, including burst, can be stalled using the CEN

Snooze Mode
SNOOZE MODE is a low current, power-down mode in which the device is deselected and current is reduced to I
SNOOZE MODE is dictated by the length of time the ZZ is in a High state.
The ZZ pin is an asynchronous, active high input that causes the device to enter SNOOZE MODE.
When the ZZ pin becomes a logic High, I
is disabled and all outputs go to High-Z. Any operation pending when entering SNOOZE MODE is not guaranteed to successfully complete.
Therefore, SNOOZE MODE (READ or WRITE) must not be initiated until valid pending operations are completed. Similarly, when exiting
SNOOZE MODE during t

Notes:
1 CONTINUE BURST cycles, whether READ or WRITE, use the same control inputs. The type of cycle performed (READ or WRITE) is chosen in the initial BEGIN BURST
cycle. A CONINUE DESELECT cycle can only be entered if a DESELECT CYCLE is executed first.
2 DUMMY READ and WRITE ABORT cycles can be considered NOPs because the device performs no external operation. A WRITE ABORT means a WRITE command is given,
but no operation is performed.

WRITE operations will be performed during the INHIBIT CLOCK cycle.
