Notes: 1. A start-up delay of 200µs is required after power-up, fol lowed by a minimum of eight initialization cycles
(/RAS only r efresh or /CAS before /RAS refresh) befor e pr oper devic e oper ation is achieved.
2. The AC characteristic s assumes t
T
= 5ns.
3. V
IH
(Min.) and VIL(Max.) are ref erence lev els f or m easuring input tim ing signals. Transiti on ti me (tT) are
measured between V
IH
and VIL.
4. This parameter is m easured wit h a load circuit equivalent t o 2TTL loads and 100pF.
5. Operation within the t
RCD
(Max.) limit ensures that t
RAC
(Max.) can be met.
t
RCD
(Max.) is specified as a reference point only. If t
RCD
is greater than the specified t
RCD
(Max.) limit, then
the access tim e is controll ed by t
CAC
.
6. Operation within the t
RAD
(Max.) limit ensures that t
RAC
(Max.) can be met.
t
RAD
(Max.) is specified as a reference point only. If t
RAD
is greater than the specified t
RAD
(Max.) limit, then
the access tim e is controll ed by t
AA
.
7. t
OFF
(Max.) define the time at which the output achieves the open circuit condition and are not referenced
to output voltage levels.
8. t
RCH
or t
RRH
must be satisfi ed for a read cycle.
