MT42C4256
DESCRIPTION
The SMJ44C251B/MT42C4256 multiport video RAM is a
high-speed, dual-ported memory device. It consists of a dynamic
random-access memory (DRAM) organized as 262144 words
of 4 bits each interfaced to a serial-data register or serial-access
memory (SAM) organized as 512 words of 4 bits each. The
SMJ44C251B/MT42C4256 supports three types of operation:
random access to and from the DRAM, serial access to and from
the serial register, and bidirectional transfer of data between any
row in the DRAM and the serial register. Except during transfer
operations, the SMJ44C251B/MT42C4256 can be accessed
simultaneously and asynchronously from the DRAM and SAM
ports.
During a transfer operation, the 512 columns of the DRAM
are connected to the 512 positions in the serial data register. The
512 × 4-bit serial-data register can be loaded from the memory
row (transfer read), or the contents of the 512 × 4-bit serial-data
register can be written to the memory row (transfer write).
The SMJ44C251B/MT42C4256 is equipped with several
features designed to provide higher system-level bandwidth and
to simplify design integration on both the DRAM and SAM ports.
On the DRAM port, greater pixel draw rates can be achieved
by the device’s 4 × 4 block-write mode. The block-write mode
allows four bits of data (present in an on-chip color-data register)
to be written to any combination of four adjacent column-address
locations. As many as 16 bits of data can be written to memory
during each CAS cycle time. Also on the DRAM port, a write
mask or a write-per-bit feature allows masking any combination of the four input/outputs on any write cycle. The persistent
write-per-bit feature uses a mask register that, once loaded, can
be used on subsequent write cycles. The mask register eliminates
having to provide mask data on every mask-write cycle.
The SMJ44C251B/MT42C4256 offers a split-register
transfer read (DRAM to SAM) feature for the serial tester
(SAM port). This feature enables real-time register reload
implementation for truly continuous serial data streams without
critical timing requirements. The register is divided into a high
half and a low half. While one half is being read out of the SAM
port, the other half can be loaded from the memory array. For
SMJ44C251B/MT42C4256
Rev. 0.6 06/10
applications not requiring real-time register reload (for example,
reloads done during CRT retrace periods), the single-register
mode of operation is retained to simplify design. The SAM can
also be configured in input mode, accepting serial data from an
external device. Once the serial register within the SAM is loaded,
its contents can be transferred to the corresponding column positions in any row in memory in a single memory cycle.
The SAM port is designed for maximum performance. Data
can be input to or accessed from the SAM at serial rates up to
33 MHz. During the split-register mode of operation, internal
circuitry detects when the last bit position is accessed from the
active half of the register and immediately transfers control to the
opposite half. A separate output, QSF, is included to
indicate which half of the serial register is active at any given time
in the split-register mode.
All inputs, outputs, and clock signals on the SMJ44C251B/
MT42C4256 are compatible with Series 54 TTL devices. All
address lines and data-in lines are latched on-chip to simplify
system design. All data-out lines are unlatched to allow greater
system flexibility.
Enhanced page-mode operation allows faster memory access by keeping the same row address while selecting random
column addresses. The time for row-address setup, row-address
hold, and address multiplex is eliminated, and a memory cycle
time reduction of up to 3× can be achieved, compared to minimum RAS cycle times. The maximum number of columns that
can be accessed is determined by the maximum RAS low time
and page-mode cycle time used. The SMJ44C251B/MT42C4256
allows a full page (512 cycles) of
information to be accessed in
read, write, or read-modify-write mode during a single RAS-low
period using relatively conservative page-mode cycle times.
The SMJ44C251B/MT42C4256 employs state-of-the-art
technology for very high performance combined with improved
reliability.

OPERATION
ROW-ADDRESS STROBE (RAS\)
RAS\ is similar to a chip enable because all DRAM cycles
and transfer cycles are initiated by the falling edge of RAS\.
RAS\ is a control input that latches the states of row address,
W\, TRG\, SE\, CAS\, and DSF onto the chip to invoke DRAM
and transfer functions.
Depending on the type of operation chosen, the signals of
the SMJ44C251B/MT42C4256 perform different functions.
The “Detailed Signal Description vs. Operational Mode” table
summarizes the signal descriptions and the operational modes
they control.
The SMJ44C251B/MT42C4256 has three kinds of
operations: random-access operations typical of a DRAM,
transfer operations from memory arrays to the SAM, and
serial-access operations through the SAM port. The signals
used to control these operations are described here, followed
by discussions of the operations themselves.
COLUMN-ADDRESS STROBE (CAS\)
CAS\ is a control input that latches the states of column
address and DSF to control DRAM and transfer functions.
When CAS\ is brought low during a transfer cycle, it latches
the new tap point for the serial-data input or output. CAS\ also
acts as an output enable for the DRAM outputs DQ0–DQ3.
ADDRESS (A0–A8)
For DRAM operation, 18 address bits are required to
decode one of the 262144 storage cell locations. Nine row- address bits are set up on A0–A8 and latched onto the chip on the
falling edge of RAS\. Nine column-address bits are set up on
A0–A8 and latched onto the chip on the falling edge of CAS\.
All addresses must be stable on or before the falling edges of
RAS\ and CAS\.
During the transfer operation, the states of A0–A8 are
latched on the falling edge of RAS\ to select one of the 512
rows where the transfer occurs. To select one of 512 tap points
(starting positions) for the serial-data input or output, the
appropriate 9-bit column address (A0–A8) must be valid when
CAS\ falls.

OUTPUT ENABLE/TRANSFER SELECT (TRG\)
TRG\ selects either DRAM or transfer operation as RAS\
falls. For DRAM operation, TRG\ must be held high as RAS\
falls. During DRAM operation, TRG\ functions as an output enable for the DRAM outputs DQ0–DQ3. For transfer
operation, TRG\ must be brought low before RAS\ falls.
WRITE-MASK SELECT, WRITE ENABLE (W\)
In DRAM operation, W\ enables data to be written to the
DRAM. W\ is also used to select the DRAM write-per-bit
mode. Holding W\ low on the falling edge of RAS\ invokes
the write-per-bit operation. The SMJ44C251B/MT42C4256
supports both the normal write-per-bit mode and the persistent
write-per-bit mode.

VRAM
SMJ44C251B
MT42C4256
WRITE-MASK SELECT, WRITE ENABLE (W\)
(continued)
For transfer operation, W\ selects either a read-transfer operation (DRAM to SAM) or a write-transfer operation (SAM to
DRAM). During a transfer cycle, if W is high when RAS\ falls,
a read transfer occurs; if W is low, a write transfer occurs.
SPECIAL FUNCTION SELECT (DSF)
DSF is latched on the falling edge of RAS\ or CAS\, similar
to an address. DSF determines which of the following functions
are invoked on a particular cycle:
• Persistent write-per-bit
• Block write
• Split-register transfer read
• Mask-register load for the persistent write-per-bit mode
• Color-register load for the block-write mode
in serial-output mode, data in SAM is accessed from the least
significant bit to the most significant bit. The data registers operate modulo 512; so after bit 511 is accessed, the next bits to be
accessed are 00, 01, 02, etc. If the previous transfer cycle was
either a write transfer or a pseudo transfer, the data register is in
serial-input mode and signal data can be input to the register.
SERIAL CLOCK (SC)
Serial data is accessed in or out of the data register on the
rising edge of SC. The SMJ44C251B/MT42C4256 is designed
to work with a wide range of clock-duty cycles to simplify
system design. There is no refresh requirement because the
data registers that comprise the SAM are static. There is also
no minimum SC clock operating frequency.
SERIAL ENABLE (SE\)
During serial-access operations SE\ is used as an enable/
disable for SDQ in both the input and output modes. If SE\

RANDOM-ACCESS OPERATION
A valid column address can be presented immediately after rowaddress hold time has been satisfied, usually well in advance
of the falling edge of CAS\. In this case, data can be obtained
after ta(C) max (access time from CAS low), if ta(CA) max (access
time from column address) has been satisfied.
The random-access operation functions are summarized in
the “Random-Access-Operation Function” table and described
in the following sections.
ENHANCED PAGE-MODE
REFRESH
Enhanced page-mode operation allows faster memory access by keeping the same row address while selecting random
column addresses. This mode eliminates the time required for
row address setup-and-hold and address
multiplex. The
maximum RAS\ low time and the CAS\ page cycle time used
determine the number of columns that can be
accessed.
Unlike conventional page-mode operation, the enhanced
page mode allows the SMJ44C251B/MT42C4256 to operate
at a
higher data bandwidth. Data retrieval begins as soon as the
column address is valid rather than when CAS\ transitions low.
SMJ44C251B/MT42C4256
Rev. 0.6 06/10
There are three types of refresh available on the
SMJ44C251B/MT42C4256: RAS\-only refresh, CBR refresh,
and hidden refresh.
RAS\-ONLY REFRESH
A refresh operation must be performed to each row at least
once every 8 ms to retain data. Unless CAS\ is applied, the output buffers are in the high-impedance state, so the RAS\-only
refresh sequence avoids any output during refresh. Externally
generated addresses must be supplied during RAS-only refresh.

When DSF is high on the falling edge of RAS\, the writeper-bit mask is not reloaded: it retains the value stored during

known as persistent write-per-bit because the write-per-bit
mask is persistent over an arbitrary number of write cycles. The
write-per-bit mask reload can be done during the nonpersistent
write-per-bit cycle or by the mask-register-load cycle.

TRANSFER OPERATION
Transfer operations between the memory arrays (DRAM)
and the data registers (SAM) are invoked by bringing TRG\ low
before RAS\ falls. The states of W\, SE\, and DSF, which are also
latched on the falling edge of RAS\, determine which transfer
operation is invoked. Figure 5 shows an overview of data flow
between the random and the serial interfaces.
As shown in the “Transfer-Operation Functions” table,
the SMJ44C251B/MT42C4256 supports five basic modes of
transfer operation:
• Register-to-memory transfer (normal write transfer,
SAM to DRAM)
• Alternate-write transfer (independent of the state of SE\)
• Memory-to-register transfer (pseudo-transfer write).
Switches serial port from serial-out mode to serial-in
mode. No actual data transfer takes place between the
DRAM and the SAM.
• Memory-to-register transfer (normal-read transfer,
transfer entire contents of DRAM row to SAM)
• Split-register-read transfer (divides the SAM into a low
and a high half. Only one half is transferred to the
SAM while the other half is read from the serial I/O
port.)

WRITE TRANSFER
All write-transfer cycles (except the pseudo write transfer)
transfer the entire content of SAM to the selected row in the
DRAM. To invoke a write-transfer cycle, W\ must be low when
RAS\ falls. There are three possible write-transfer operations:
normal-write transfer, alternate-write transfer, and pseudo-write
transfer. All write-transfer cycles switch the serial port to the
serial-in mode.
PSEUDO-WRITE TRANSFER
(write-mode control) (refer to Figure 28)
To invoke the pseudo-write transfer (write-mode control
cycle), SE\ is brought high and latched at the falling edge of
RAS\. The pseudo-write transfer does not actually invoke any
data transfer but switches the mode of the serial port from the
serial-out (read) mode to the serial-in (write) mode.
Before serial data can be clocked into the serial port via the
SDQ terminals and the SC input, the SDQ terminals must be

during the pseudo-transfer write, the row address (A0–A8) is in

SPLIT-REGISTER-READ TRANSFER
In split-register-read-transfer operation, the serial-data
register is split into halves. The low half contains bits 0–255, and
the high half contains 256–511. While one half is being read out
of the SAM port, the other half can be loaded from the memory
array.
To invoke a split-register read-transfer cycle, DSF is brought
high, TRG\ is brought low, and both are latched at the falling
edge of RAS\. Nine row-address bits (A0–A8) are also latched
at the falling edge of RAS\ to select one of the 512 rows available for the transfer. The nine column-address bits (A0–A8)
are latched at the falling edge of CAS\, where address bits A0
–A7 select one of the 255 tap points in the specified half of SAM
and address bit A8 selects which half is to be transferred. If A8
is a logic low, the low half is transferred. If A8 is a logic high,
the high half is transferred. SAM locations 255 and 511 cannot
be used as tap points.
A normal-read transfer must precede the split-register-read
transfer to ensure proper operation. After the normal-readtransfer cycle, the first split-register read transfer can follow
immediately without any minimum SC requirement. However,
there is a minimum requirement of a rising edge of SC between
split-register read-transfer cycles.
QSF indicates which half of the SAM is being accessed during serial-access operation. When QSF is low, the serial-address
pointer is accessing the lower (least significant) 256 bits of the
SAM. When QSF is high, the pointer is accessing the higher
(most significant) 256 bits of the SAM. QSF changes state upon
completing a normal-read-transfer cycle. The tap point loaded
during the current transfer cycle determines the state of QSF.
In split-register read-transfer mode, QSF changes state when a
boundary between the two register halves is reached (see Figure
8 and Figure 9).

FIGURE 9: A SPLIT-REGISTER READ-TRANSFER CYCLE AFTER
A SPLIT-REGISTER READ-TRANSFER CYCLE
SERIAL-ACCESS OPERATION
The serial-read and serial-write operations can be performed
through the SAM port simultaneously and asynchronously with
DRAM operations except during transfer operations. The preceding transfer operation determines the input or output state of the
SAM port. If the preceding transfer operation is a read-transfer
operation, the SAM port is in the output mode. If the preceding
transfer operation is a write- or pseudo-write-transfer operation,
the SAM port is in the input mode.
Serial data can be read out of or written into SAM by
clocking SC starting at the tap point loaded by the preceding
transfer cycle, proceeding sequentially to the most significant
bit (bit 511), then wrapping around to the least
significant bit (bit 0) (see Figure 10).
FIGURE 10: SERIAL POINTER DIRECTION FOR SERIAL READ/WRITE
For split-register read-transfer operation, serial data can be read
out from the active half of SAM by clocking SC starting at the tap
point loaded by the preceding split-register-transfer cycle, then
proceeding sequentially to the most significant bit of the half,
bit 255 or bit 511. If there is a split-register-read transfer to the
inactive half during this period, the serial pointer points next to
the tap-point location loaded by that split register (see
Figure 11, Case I). If there is no split-register read transfer to
the inactive half during this period, the serial pointer points next
to bit 256 or bit 0, respectively (see Figure 11, Case II).

NOTES:
1. The SMJ44C251B may exhibit simultaneous switching noise as described in the Texas Instruments Advanced CMOS Logic Designer’s Handbook. This
phenomenon is exhibited on the DQ terminals when the SDQ terminals are switched and on the SDQ terminals when the DQ terminals are switched. This may
cause VOL and VOH to exceed the data-book limit for a short period of time, depending upon output loading and temperature. Care should be taken to provide
proper termination, decoupling, and layout of the device to minimize simultaneous switching effects.
2. SE\ is disabled for SDQ output leakage tests.
3.
ICC (standby) denotes that the SAM port is inactive (standby) and the DRAM port is active (except for ICC2).
ICCA (active) denotes that the SAM port is active and the DRAM port is active (except for ICC2).
ICC is measured with no load on DQ or SDQ.
4. For conditions shown as MIN/ MAX, use the appropriate value specified in the timing requirements.

NOTES:
1. Timing measurements are referenced to VIL max and VIH min.
2. All cycle times assume tt = 5 ns.
3. When the odd tap is used (tap address can be 0–511, and odd taps are 1, 3, 5, etc.), the cycle time for SC in the first serial data out cycle needs to be 70 ns
minimum.
4. In a read-modify-write cycle, td(CLWL) and tsu(WCH) must be observed. Depending on the user’s transition times, this may require additional CAS\ low time
[tw(CL)].
5. In a read-modify-write cycle, td(RLWL) and tsu(WRH) must be observed. Depending on the user’s transition times, this may require additional RAS\ low time
[tw(RL)].
6. Register-to-memory (write) transfer cycles only
7. The minimum value is measured when td(RLCL) is set to td(RLCL) min as a reference.
8. Either th(RHrd) or t(CHrd) must be satisfied for a read cycle.
9. Output-enable-controlled write. Output remains in the high-impedance state for the entire cycle.
10. Read-modify-write operation only
11. TRG\ must disable the output buffers prior to applying data to the DQ terminals.
12. The maximum value is specified only to assure RAS\ access time.
13. CAS\-before-RAS\ refresh operation only
14. Early-load read-transfer cycle only
15. Real-time-reload read-transfer cycle only
16. Late-load read-transfer cycle only
17. In a read-transfer cycle, the state of SC when RAS\ falls is a don’t care condition. However, to assure proper sequencing of the internal clock circuitry, there
can be no positive transitions of SC for at least 10 ns prior to when RAS\ goes low.
18. In a memory-to-register (read) transfer cycle, td(SCRL) applies only when the SAM was previously in serial-input mode.
19. Memory-to-register (read) and register-to-memory (write) transfer cycles only
20. Serial data-in cycles only
21. Switching times assume CL = 100 pF unless otherwise noted (see Figure 12).

NOTES:
NOTE H: Early-load operation is defined as th(TRG) min < th(TRG) < td(RLTH) min.
NOTE I: DQ outputs remain in the high-impedance state for the entire memory-to-data-register transfer cycle. The memory-to-data-register transfer cycle is
used to load the data registers in parallel from the memory array. The 512 locations in each data register are written from the 512 corresponding columns of the
selected row. The data that is transferred into the data registers can be either shifted out or transferred back into another row.
NOTE J: Once data is transferred into the data registers, the SAM is in the serial-read mode (i.e., SQ is enabled), allowing data to be shifted out of the registers.
Also, the first bit to be read from the data register after TRG\ has gone high must be activated by a positive transition of SC.

FIGURE 35: Split-Register-Transfer Operating Sequence
NOTES:
NOTE Q: In order to achieve proper split-register operation, a normal read transfer should be performed before the first split-register transfer cycle. This is
necessary to initialize the data register and the starting tap location. First serial access can then begin either after the normal read-transfer cycle (CASE I), during
the first split-register cycle (CASE II), or even after the first split-register transfer cycle (CASE III). There is no minimum requirement of SC clock between
the normal read-transfer cycle and the first split-register cycle.
NOTE R: A split register transfer into the inactive half is not allowed until td(MSRL) is met. td(MSRL) is the minimum delay time between the rising edge of the
serial clock of the last bit (bit 255 or 511) and the falling edge of RAS\ of the split-register transfer cycle into the inactive half. After td(MSRL) is met, the splitregister transfer into the inactive half must also satisfy the td(RHMS) requirement. td(RHMS) is the minimum delay time between the rising edge of RAS\ of the
split-register transfer cycle into the inactive half and the rising edge of the serial clock of the last bit (bit 255 or 511). There is a minimum requirement of one
rising edge of SC clock between two split-register transfer cycles.

NOTES:
NOTE S: The serial data-in cycle is used to input serial data into the data registers. Before data can be written into the data registers via the SDQ terminals,
the device must be put into the write mode by performing a write-mode-control (pseudo-transfer) cycle or any other write-transfer cycle. A read-transfer cycle
is the only cycle that takes the serial port (SAM) out of the write mode and puts it into the read mode, disabling the input data. Data is written starting at the
location specified by the input address loaded on the previous transfer cycle.
NOTE T: While accessing data in the serial-data registers, the state of TRG\ is a don’t care as long as TRG\ is held high when RAS\ goes low to prevent data
transfers between memory and data registers.

NOTE W: While reading data through the serial-data register, the state of TRG\ is a don’t care as long as TRG\ is held high when RAS\ goes low. This is to
avoid the initiation of a register-to-memory-to-register data-transfer operation.
NOTE X: The serial data-out cycle is used to read data out of the data registers. Before data can be read via SDQ, the device must be put into the read mode
by performing a transfer-read cycle. Any transfer-write cycles occurring between the transfer-read cycle and the subsequent shifting out of data take the device
out of the read mode and put it in the write mode, not allowing the reading of data.
