Functional description

The AS7C3364PFS32A and AS7C3364PFS36A are high-performance CMOS 2-Mbit synchronous Static Random Access Memory (SRAM)

devices organized as 65,536 words × 32 or 36 bits, and incorporate a two-stage register-register pipeline for highest frequency on any given

technology.

Three chip enable (CE) inputs permit easy memory expansion. Burst operation is initiated in one of two ways: the controller address strobe

(ADSC), or the processor address strobe (ADSP). The burst advance pin (ADV) allows subsequent internally generated burst addresses.

Read cycles are initiated with ADSP (regardless of WE and ADSC) using the new external address clocked into the on-chip address register

when ADSP is sampled Low, the chip enables are sampled active, and the output buffer is enabled with OE. In a read operation the data accessed

by the current address, registered in the address registers by the positive edge of CLK, are carried to the data-out registers and driven on the

output pins on the next positive edge of CLK. ADV is ignored on the clock edge that samples ADSP asserted, but is sampled on all subsequent

clock edges. Address is incremented internally for the next access of the burst when ADV is sampled Low, and both address strobes are High.

Write cycles are performed by disabling the output buffers with OE and asserting a write command. A global write enable GWE writes all 32/

36 bits regardless of the state of individual BW[a:d] inputs. Alternately, when GWE is High, one or more bytes may be written by asserting

BWE and the appropriate individual byte BWn signal(s).

BWn is ignored on the clock edge that samples ADSP Low, but is sampled on all subsequent clock edges. Output buffers are disabled when BWn

is sampled LOW (regardless of OE). Data is clocked into the data input register when BWn is sampled Low. Address is incremented internally to

the next burst address if BWn and ADV are sampled Low.

Read or write cycles may also be initiated with ADSC instead of ADSP. The differences between cycles initiated with ADSC and ADSP follow.

•ADSP must be sampled HIGH when ADSC is sampled LOW to initiate a cycle with ADSC.

•WE signals are sampled on the clock edge that samples ADSC LOW (and ADSP High).

•Master chip enable CE0 blocks ADSP, but not ADSC.

ASAS7C3364PFS32A and ASAS7C3364PFS36A family operates from a core 3.3V power supply. I/Os use a separate power supply that can

operate at 2.5V or 3.3V. These devices are available in a 100-pin 14 × 20 mm TQFP package.
