DESCRIPTION
Row-Address Strobe: RAS# is used to clock-in the row-
address bits. Two RAS# inputs allow for one x72 bank
or two x36 banks.
Column-Address Strobe: CAS# is used to clock-in the
column-address bits, enable the DRAM output buffers
and strobe the data inputs on WRITE cycles.
Write Enable: WE# is the READ/WRITE control for the
DQ pins. WE0# controls DQ0-DQ35. WE2# controls
DQ36-DQ71. If WE# is LOW prior to CAS# going LOW,
the access is an EARLY WRITE cycle. If WE# is HIGH
while CAS# is LOW, the access is a READ cycle,
provided OE# is also LOW. If WE# goes LOW after
CAS# goes LOW, then the cycle is a LATE WRITE cycle.
A LATE WRITE cycle is generally used in conjunction
with a READ cycle to form a READ-MODIFY-WRITE
cycle.
Output Enable: OE# is the input/output control for the
DQ pins. OE0# controls DQ0-DQ35. OE2# controls
DQ36-DQ71. These signals may be driven, allowing
LATE WRITE cycles.
Address Inputs: These inputs are multiplexed and
clocked by RAS# and CAS#. A0 is common to the
DRAMs used for DQ0-DQ35 while B0 is common to the
DRAMs used for DQ36-DQ71
Data I/O: For WRITE cycles, DQ0-DQ71 act as inputs to
the addressed DRAM location. For READ access cycles,
DQ0-DQ71 act as outputs for the addressed DRAM
location.

Presence-Detect: These pins are read by the host system
and tell the system the DIMM’s personality. They will be
either no connect (1), or they will be driven to V
OL
(0).
Reserved for Future Use: These pins should be left
unconnected.
