GENERAL DESCRIPTION
W942508AH is a CMOS Double Data Rate synchronous dynamic random access memory (DDR
SDRAM), organized as 8,388,608 words
× 4 banks × 8 bits. Using pipelined architecture and 0.175 m
process technology, W942508AH delivers a data bandwidth of up to 286M words per second (-7). To
fully comply with the personal computer industrial standard, W942508AH is sorted into three speed
grades: -7, -75 and -8. The -7 is compliant to the 143 MHz/CL2.5 or DDR266/CL2 specification, the -
75 is compliant to the DDR266/CL2.5 specification, the -8 is compliant to the DDR200/CL2
specification
All Inputs reference to the positive edge of CLK (except for DQ, DM, and CKE). The timing reference
point for the differential clock is when the CLK and CLK signals cross during a transition. And Write
and Read data are synschronized with the both edges of DQS (Data Strobe).
By having a programmable Mode Register, the system can change burst length, latency cycle,
interleave or sequential burst to maximize its performance. W942508AH is ideal for main memory in
high performance applications.
