4Mb: 256K x 16 Async/Page/Burst CellularRAM 1.0 Memory
General Description
General Description
Micron
®
CellularRAM
®
is a high-speed, CMOS PSRAM memory developed for low-
power, portable applications. The MT45W256KW16BEGB is a 4Mb DRAM core
device organized as 256K x 16 bits. This device includes an industry-standard burst
mode Flash interface that dramatically increases read/write bandwidth compared with
other low-power SRAM or pseudo-SRAM (PSRAM) offerings.
For seamless operation on a burst Flash bus, CellularRAM products incorporate a trans-
parent self refresh mechanism. The hidden refresh requires no additional support from
the system memory controller and has no significant impact on device read/write
performance.
Two user-accessible control registers define device operation. The bus configuration
register (BCR) defines how the CellularRAM device interacts with the system memory
bus and is nearly identical to its counterpart on burst mode Flash devices. The refresh
configuration register (RCR) is used to control how refresh is performed on the DRAM
array. These registers are automatically loaded with default settings during power-up
and can be updated anytime during normal operation.
Special attention has been focused on standby current consumption during self refresh.
This CellularRAM product includes two system-accessible mechanisms to minimize
standby current. Partial-array refresh (PAR) limits refresh to only that part of the DRAM
array that contains essential data. Deep power-down (DPD) halts the REFRESH opera-
tion altogether and is used when no vital information is stored in the device. These two
refresh mechanisms are accessed through the RCR.
