The ICSI 44002 Series is a 4,194,304 x 4-bit high-performance
CMOS Dynamic Random Access Memory. These devices
offer an accelerated cycle access called EDO Page Mode.
EDO Page Mode allows 2,048 random accesses within a single
row with access cycle time as short as 20 ns per 4-bit word.
These features make the 44002 Series ideally suited for highbandwidth graphics, digital signal processing, high-performance
computing systems, and peripheral applications.
The 44002 Series is packaged in a 24-pin 300mil SOJ and a 24
pin TSOP-2

The IC41C44002A and IC41LV44002A are CMOS DRAMs
optimized for high-speed bandwidth, low power
applications. During READ or WRITE cycles, each bit is
uniquely addressed through the 11 address bits. These are
entered 11 bits (A0-A10) at a time for the 2K refresh device
. The row address is latched by the Row Address Strobe
(RAS). The column address is latched by the Column
Address Strobe (CAS). RAS is used to latch the first 11 bits
and CAS is used to latch the latter 11 bits.
Memory Cycle
A memory cycle is initiated by bring RAS LOW and it is
terminated by returning both RAS and CAS HIGH. To
ensures proper device operation and data integrity any
memory cycle, once initiated, must not be ended or
aborted before the minimum tRAS time has expired. A new
cycle must not be initiated until the minimum precharge
time tRP, tCP has elapsed.
Read Cycle
A read cycle is initiated by the falling edge of CAS or OE,
whichever occurs last, while holding WE HIGH. The
column address must be held for a minimum time specified
by tAR. Data Out becomes valid only when tRAC, tAA, tCAC
and tOE are all satisfied. As a result, the access time is
dependent on the timing relationships between these
parameters.
Write Cycle
A write cycle is initiated by the falling edge of CAS and WE,
whichever occurs last. The input data must be valid at or
before the falling edge of CAS or WE, whichever occurs
last.
Refresh Cycle
To retain data, 2,048 refresh cycles are required in each
32 ms period. There are two ways to refresh the memory:
1. By clocking each of the 2,048 row addresses (A0
through A10) with RAS at least once every 32 ms. Any
read, write, read-modify-write or RAS-only cycle refreshes the addressed row.
2. Using a CAS-before-RAS refresh cycle. CAS-beforeRAS refresh is activated by the falling edge of RAS,
while holding CAS LOW. In CAS-before-RAS refresh
cycle, an internal 11-bit counter provides the row addresses and the external address inputs are ignored.
CAS-before-RAS is a refresh-only mode and no data
access or device selection is allowed. Thus, the output
remains in the High-Z state during the cycle.
Self Refresh Cycle
The Self Refresh allows the user a dynamic refresh, data
retention mode at the extended refresh period of 64 ms. i.
e., 32 µs per row when using distributed CBR refreshes.
The feature also allows the user the choice of a fully static,
low power data retention mode. The optional Self Refresh
feature is initiated by performing a CBR Refresh cycle and
holding RAS LOW for the specified tRASS.
The Self Refresh mode is terminated by driving RAS HIGH
for a minimum time of tRPS. This delay allows for the
completion of any internal refresh cycles that may be in
process at the time of the RAS LOW-to-HIGH transition. If
the DRAM controller uses a distributed refresh sequence,
a burst refresh is not required upon exiting Self Refresh.
However, if the DRAM controller utilizes a RAS-only or
burst refresh sequence, all 2048 rows must be refreshed
within the average internal refresh rate, prior to the resumption of normal operation.

Power-On
After application of the VCC supply, an initial pause of
200 µs is required followed by a minimum of eight initialization cycles (any combination of cycles containing a
RAS signal).
During power-on, it is recommended that RAS track with
VCC or be held at a valid VIH to avoid current surges.

Note:
1. Stress greater than those listed under ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS may cause permanent
damage to the device. This is a stress rating only and functional operation of the device at these
or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational sections of this specification is
not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect
reliability.
RECOMMENDED OPERATING CONDITIONS (Voltages are referenced to GND.)
1. An initial pause of 200 µs is required after power-up followed by eight RAS refresh cycles (RAS-Only or CBR) before proper device
operation is assured. The eight RAS cycles wake-up should be repeated any time the tREF refresh requirement is exceeded.
2. Dependent on cycle rates.
3. Specified values are obtained with minimum cycle time and the output open.
4. Column-address is changed once each EDO page cycle.
