Flow Through mode, causing output data to bypass the Data Output
Register. Holding FT high places the RAM in Pipeline mode,
activating the rising-edge-triggered Data Output Register.
The GS816218A(B/D)/GS816236A(B/D)/GS816272A(C) is an SCD
(Single Cycle Deselect) and DCD (Dual Cycle Deselect) pipelined
synchronous SRAM. DCD SRAMs pipeline disable commands to the
same degree as read commands. SCD SRAMs pipeline deselect
commands one stage less than read commands. SCD RAMs begin
turning off their outputs immediately after the deselect command has
been captured in the input registers. DCD RAMs hold the deselect
command for one full cycle and then begin turning off their outputs
just after the second rising edge of clock. The user may configure this
SRAM for either mode of operation using the SCD mode input.
Byte write operation is performed by using Byte Write enable (BW)
input combined with one or more individual byte write signals (Bx).
In addition, Global Write (GW) is available for writing all bytes at one
time, regardless of the Byte Write control inputs.

Functional Description
Applications
The GS816218A(B/D)/GS816236A(B/D)/GS816272A(C) is an
18,874,368-bit 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.
Addresses, data I/Os, chip enable (E1), address burst control inputs
(ADSP, ADSC, ADV), and write control inputs (Bx, BW, GW) are
synchronous and are controlled by a positive-edge-triggered clock
input (CK). Output enable (G) and power down control (ZZ) are
asynchronous inputs. Burst cycles can be initiated with either ADSP
or ADSC inputs. In Burst mode, subsequent burst addresses are
generated internally and are controlled by ADV. The burst address
counter may be configured to count in either linear or interleave order
with the Linear Burst Order (LBO) input. The Burst function need not
be used. New addresses can be loaded on every cycle with no
degradation of chip performance.

Controls
The ZQ pin allows selection between high drive strength (ZQ low) for
multi-drop bus applications and normal drive strength (ZQ floating or
high) point-to-point applications. See the Output Driver
Characteristics chart for details.
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
Flow Through/Pipeline Reads
The function of the Data Output register can be controlled by the user
via the FT mode . Holding the FT mode pin low places the RAM in
The GS816218A(B/D)/GS816236A(B/D)/GS816272A(C) 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
DDQ
) pins are used to decouple
output noise from the internal circuits and are 3.3 V and 2.5 V
compatible.
