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

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.

Note:
There is a are pull-up devices on the ZQ and SCD FT pins and a pull-down device on the ZZ pin, so thosethis input pins can be unconnected
