Family Overview
GS8150V18/36A are 18,874,368-bit (18Mb) high
performance SRAMs. This family of wide, very low voltage
HSTL I/O SRAMs is designed to operate at the speeds needed
to implement economical high performance cache systems.
Functional Description
Because GS8150V18/36A are synchronous devices, address
data inputs and read/write control inputs are captured on the
rising edge of the input clock. Write cycles are internally self-
timed and initiated by the rising edge of the clock input. This
feature eliminates complex off-chip write pulse generation
required by asynchronous SRAMs and simplifies input signal
timing.
GS8150V18/36A support pipelined reads utilizing a rising-
edge-triggered output register. They also utilize a Dual Cycle
Deselect (DCD) output deselect protocol.
GS8150V18/36A are implemented with high performance
HSTL technology and are packaged in a 119-bump BGA.
Mode Control
There are two mode control select pins (M1 and M2), which
allow the user to set the correct read protocol for the design.
The GS8150V18/36A support single clock Pipeline mode,
which directly affects the two mode control select pins. In
order for the part to fuction correctly, and as specified, M1
must be tied to VSS and M2 must be tied to VDD or VDDQ.
This must be set at power-up and should not be changed during
operation.
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.
