DESCRIPTION:
The IDT71215 is a 245,760-bit Cache Tag StaticRAM,
organized 16K x 15 and designed to support the Pentium and
other Intel processors at bus speeds up to 66MHz. There are
twelve common I/O TAG bits, with the remaining three bits
used as status bits. A 12-bit comparator is on-chip to allow fast
comparison of the twelve stored TAG bits and the current Tag
input data. An active HIGH MATCH output is generated when
these two groups of data are the same for a given address.
This high-speed MATCH signal, with t
ADM as fast as 8ns,
provides the fastest possible enabling of secondary cache
accesses.
The three separate I/O status bits (VLD, DTY, and WT) can
be configured for either dedicated or generic functionality,
depending on the SFUNC input pin. With SFUNC LOW, the
status bits are defined and used internally by the device,
allowing easier determination of the validity and use of the
given Tag data. SFUNC HIGH releases the defined internal
status bit usage and control, allowing the user to configure the
status bit information to fit his system needs. A synchronous
RESET
pin, when held LOW at a rising clock edge, will reset
all status bits in the array for easy invalidation of all Tag
addresses.
The IDT71215 also provides the option for Burst Ready
(
BRDY
) generation within the cache tag itself, based upon
MATCH, VLD bit, WT bit, and external inputs provided by the
user. This can significantly simplify cache controller logic and
minimize cache decision time. Match and Read operations
are both asynchronous in order to provide the fastest access
times possible, while Write operations are synchronous for
ease of system timing.
The IDT71215 uses a 5V power supply on Vcc with sepa-
rate V
CCQ pins provided for the outputs to offer compliance
with both 5.0V TTL and 3.3V LVTTL Logic levels. The
PWRDN
pin offers a low-power standby mode to reduce power consumption by 90%, providing significant system power savings.
The IDT71215 is fabricated using IDT's high-performance,
high-reliability BiCMOS technology and is offered in a spacesaving 80-pin Thin Plastic Quad Flat Pack (TQFP) package.
