Functional Description
Applications
The GS816018/32/36BT is an 18,874,368-bit (16,777,216-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 (
(
Bx, BW, GW) are synchronous and are controlled by a
positive-edge-triggered clock input (CK). Output enable (
and power down control (ZZ) are asynchronous inputs. Burst

internally and are controlled by
counter may be configured to count in either linear or
interleave order with the Linear Burst Order (
Burst function need not be used. New addresses can be loaded
on every cycle with no degradation of chip performance.
Flow Through/Pipeline Reads
The function of the Data Output register can be controlled by
the user via the
FT mode pin (Pin 14). Holding the FT mode
pin low places the RAM in Flow Through mode, causing
output data to bypass the Data Output Register. Holding
high places the RAM in Pipeline mode, activating the risingedge-triggered Data Output Register.
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 (
writing all bytes at one time, regardless of the Byte Write
Bx). In addition, Global Write (GW) is available for
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 GS816018/32/36BT 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
) pins are used to decouple output noise
DDQ
from the internal circuits and are 3.3 V and 2.5 V compatible.

2.ZZ is an asynchronous signal. However, in order to be recognized on any given clock cycle, ZZ must meet the specified setup and hold times
as specified above.

GS816018/32/36BT-250/200/150
Sleep Mode
During normal operation, ZZ must be pulled low, either by the user or by its internal pull down resistor. When ZZ is pulled high,
the SRAM will enter a Power Sleep mode after 2 cycles. At this time, internal state of the SRAM is preserved. When ZZ returns to
low, the SRAM operates normally after ZZ recovery time.
Sleep mode is a low current, power-down mode in which the device is deselected and current is reduced to ISB2. The duration of
Sleep mode is dictated by the length of time the ZZ is in a High state. After entering Sleep mode, all inputs except ZZ become
disabled and all outputs go to High-Z The ZZ pin is an asynchronous, active high input that causes the device to enter Sleep mode.
When the ZZ pin is driven high, ISB2 is guaranteed after the time tZZI is met. Because ZZ is an asynchronous input, pending
operations or operations in progress may not be properly completed if ZZ is asserted. Therefore, Sleep mode must not be initiated
until valid pending operations are completed. Similarly, when exiting Sleep mode during tZZR, only a Deselect or Read commands
may be applied while the SRAM is recovering from Sleep mode.

Application Tips
Single and Dual Cycle Deselect
SCD devices (like this one) force the use of “dummy read cycles” (read cycles that are launched normally but that are ended with
the output drivers inactive) in a fully synchronous environment. Dummy read cycles waste performance but their use usually
assures there will be no bus contention in transitions from reads to writes or between banks of RAMs. DCD SRAMs do not waste
bandwidth on dummy cycles and are logically simpler to manage in a multiple bank application (wait states need not be inserted at
bank address boundary crossings) but greater care must be exercised to avoid excessive bus contention.
