Functional Description
The CYM1840 is a high-performance 8-megabit static RAM
module organized as 256K words by 32 bits. This module is
constructed from eight 256K x 4 SRAMs in SOJ packages
mounted on an epoxy laminate substrate with pins. Four chip
selects (CS
0
, CS
1
, CS
2
, and CS
3
) are used to independently
enable the four bytes. Two write enables (WE
0
and WE
1
) are
used to independently write to either the upper or lower 16-bit
word of RAM. Reading or writing can be executed on individual
bytes or on any combination of multiple bytes through the
proper use of selects and write enables.
Writing to each byte is accomplished when the appropriate
chip select (CS) and write enable (WE) inputs are both LOW.
Data on the input/output pins (I/O
X
) is written into the memory
location specified on the address pins (A
0
through A
17
).
Reading the device is accomplished by taking the chip selects
(CS) LOW, while write enables (WE) remain HIGH. Under
these conditions the contents of the memory location specified
on the address pins will appear on the data input/output pins
(I/O).
The data input/output pins stay in the high-impedance state
when write enables (WE) are LOW or the appropriate chip
selects are HIGH.
