AS7C331MPFS18A
Functional description
The AS7C331MPFS18A is a high-performance CMOS 16-Mbit synchronous Static Random Access Memory (SRAM) device
organized as 1,048,576 words X 18 bits and incorporates a two-stage register-register pipeline for highest frequency on any
given technology.
Fast cycle times of 6/7.5 ns with clock access times (t
CD
) of 3.4/3.8 ns enable 166, and 133 MHz bus frequencies. 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 is
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 it 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. Burst mode is selectable with the LBO
input. With LBO unconnected or driven high, burst operations use an interleaved count sequence. With LBO driven low, the
device uses a linear count sequence.
Write cycles are performed by disabling the output buffers with OE and asserting a write command. A global write enable
GWE writes all 18 bits regardless of the state of individual BW[a,b] inputs. Alternately, when GWE is high, one or more bytes
may be written by asserting BWE and the appropriate individual byte BWn signals.
BWn is ignored on the clock edge that samples ADSP low, but it 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 are as follows:
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.
The AS7C331MPFS18A 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 TQFP package.

Signal descriptions
Snooze Mode
SNOOZE MODE is a low current, power-down mode in which the device is deselected and current is reduced to I
SB2
. The duration of
SNOOZE MODE is dictated by the length of time the ZZ is in a High state.
The ZZ pin is an asynchronous, active high input that causes the device to enter SNOOZE MODE.
When the ZZ pin becomes a logic High, I
SB2
is guaranteed after the time t
ZZI
is met. After entering SNOOZE MODE, all inputs except ZZ is
disabled and all outputs go to High-Z. Any operation pending when entering SNOOZE MODE is not guaranteed to successfully complete.
Therefore, SNOOZE MODE (READ or WRITE) must not be initiated until valid pending operations are completed. Similarly, when exiting
SNOOZE MODE during t
PUS
, only a DESELECT or READ cycle should be given while the SRAM is transitioning out of SNOOZE MODE.

I/O Properties
Description
CLK
I
CLOCK
Clock. All inputs except OE, ZZ, and LBO are synchronous to this clock.
A,A0,A1
I
SYNC
Address. Sampled when all chip enables are active and when ADSC or ADSP are asserted.
DQ[a,b]
I/O
SYNC
Data. Driven as output when the chip is enabled and when OE is active.
CE0
I
SYNC
Master chip enable. Sampled on clock edges when ADSP or ADSC is active. When CE0 is
inactive, ADSP is blocked. Refer to the "Synchronous truth table" for more information.
CE1, CE2
I
SYNC
Synchronous chip enables. Active high and active low, respectively. Sampled on clock edges
when ADSC is active or when CE0 and ADSP are active.
ADSP

Address strobe processor. Asserted low to load a new bus address or to enter standby mode.
ADSC
I
SYNC
Address strobe controller. Asserted low to load a new address or to enter standby mode.
ADV
I
SYNC
Advance. Asserted low to continue burst read/write.
GWE
I
SYNC
Global write enable. Asserted low to write all 18 bits. When high, BWE and BW[a,b] control
write enable.
BWE
I
SYNC
Byte write enable. Asserted low with GWE high to enable effect of BW[a,b] inputs.
BW[a,b]
I
SYNC
Write enables. Used to control write of individual bytes when GWE is high and BWE is low. If
any of BW[a,b] is active with GWE high and BWE low, the cycle is a write cycle. If all
BW[AB] are inactive, the cycle is a read cycle.
OE

ASYNC
Asynchronous output enable. I/O pins are driven when OE is active and the chip is in read
mode.
LBO
I
STATIC
Selects Burst mode. When tied to V
DD
or left floating, device follows interleaved Burst order. When
driven Low, device follows linear Burst order. This signal is internally pulled High.
ZZ
I
ASYNC
Sleep. Places device in low power mode; data is retained. Connect to GND if unused.
