16M Asynch/Page CellularRAM
Overview
1.2
General Description
The 16M Asynchronous/Page CellularRAM (CellularRAM) is is the competitive alternative to today’s SRAM based
solutions in wireless applications, such as cellular phones. With its high density 1T1C-cell concept and highly
optimized low power design, the CellularRAM is the advanced economic solution for the growing memory demand
in baseband IC designs. SRAM-pin compatibility, refresh-free operation and extreme low power design makes a
drop-in replacement in legacy systems an easy procedure.
Low power feature of Partial Array Self Refresh (PASR) allows the user to dynamically scale the active
(=refreshed) memory to his needs and to adapt the refresh rate to the actual system environment. That is no power
penalty is paid in case only portions of the total available memory capacity is used (e.g. 8Mb out of 16Mb).
The CellularRAM is available in two package options, in the SRAM compatible FBGA 48-ball package and with an
enhanced feature set in a FBGA 54-ball package. For the advanced 54-ball device please refer to the
corresponding data sheet (HYE18P16160AC).
The CelllularRAM can be powered from a single 1.8V power supply feeding the core and the output drivers.
Feeding the I/Os with a separate voltage supply the CelllularRAM can be easily adapted to systems operating in
an I/O voltage range from 1.8V to 3.0V. The chip is fabricated in Infineon Technologies advanced 0.14µm low
power process technology.
The configuration of interfacing CellularRAM is illustrated in Figure 1. Data byte control (UB, LB) is featured in all
modes and provides dedicated lower and upper byte access.

Detailed Function
CS1
Input
Chip Select
CS1 enables the command decoder when low and disables it when high. When the
command decoder is disabled new commands are ignored, addresses are don’t care and
outputs are forced to high-Z. Internal operations, however, continue. For the details
please refer to the command tables in Chapter 1.6.
OE
Input
Output Enable
OE controls DQ output driver. OE low drives DQ, OE high sets DQ to high-Z.
WE
Input
Write Enable
WE set to low while CS is low initiates a write command.
UB, LB
Input
Upper/Lower Byte Enable
UB enables the upper byte DQ15-8 (resp. LB DQ7 … 0) during read/write operations.
UB (LB) deassertion prevents the upper (lower) byte from being driven during read or
being written.
Input
Deep Power Down Enable/ Set Control Register
Strapping ZZ to low for more than 10µs the device is put to deep power down mode. If a write
access is initiated instantly (<500ns) after ZZ has been asserted to low access to the refresh
configuration register is given. By applying the SET CONTROL REGISTER (SCR) command
(see Table 3) the address bus is then loaded into the refresh control register.

1) Table 3 reflects the behaviour if UB and LB are asserted to low. If only either of the signals, UB or LB, is asserted to low
only the corresponding data byte will be output or written (UB enables DQ15 - DQ8, LB enables DQ7 - DQ0).
2) During a write access invoked by WE set to low the OE signal is ignored.
3) Stand-by power mode applies only to the case when CS goes low from DESELECT while no address change occurs.
Toggling address results in active power mode. Also, NO OPERATION from any active power mode by keeping CS low
consumes the power higher than stand-by mode.
Note: ‘L’ represents a low voltage level, ‘H’ a high voltage level, ‘X’ represents “Don’t Care”, ‘V’ represents “Valid”.

Description of Commands
Mode
Description
READ
The READ command is used to perform an asynchronous read cycle. The
signals, UB and LB, define whether only the lower, the upper or the whole 16-bit
word is output.
WRITE
The WRITE command is used to perform an asynchronous write cycle. The data
is latched on the rising edge of either CS, WE, UB, LB, whichever comes first.
The signals, UB and LB, define whether only the lower, the upper or the whole
16-bit word is latched into the CellularRAM.
SET CONTROL REGISTER
The control registers are loaded via the address inputs A15 - A0 performing an
asynchronous write access. Please refer to the control register description for
details. The SCR command can only be issued when the CellularRAM is in idle
state.
NO OPERATION
The NOP command is used to perform a no operation to the CellularRAM, which
is selected (CS1 = 0). Operations already in progress are not affected. Power
consumption of this command mode varies by address change and initiating
condition.
DESELECT
The DESELECT function prevents new commands from being executed by the
CellularRAM. The CellularRAM is effectively deselected. I/O signals are put to
high impedance state.
DPD
DPD stops all refresh-related activities and entire on-chip circuit operation.
Current consumption drops below 25 µA. Wake-up from DPD also requires
150 µs to get ready for normal operation.
Note: ‘L’ represents a low voltage level, ‘H’ a high voltage level, ‘X’ represents “Don’t Care”, ‘V’ represents “Valid”.

Power-Up and Initialization
The power-up and initialization sequence guarantees that the device is preconditioned to the user’s specific
needs. Like conventional DRAMs, the CellularRAM must be powered up and initialized in a predefined manner.
VDD and VDDQ must be applied at the same time to the specified voltage while the input signals are held in
“DESELECT” state (CS1 = High).
After power on, an initial pause of 150 µs is required prior to the control register access or normal operation. Failure
to follow these steps may lead to unpredictable start-up modes.

Refresh Control Register
The Refresh Control Register (RCR) allows to save stand-by power additionally by making use of the
Temperature-Compensated Self Refresh (TCSR), Partial-Array Self Refresh (PASR) and Deep Power Down
(DPD) features. The Refresh Control Register is programmed via the Control Register Set command and retains
the stored information until it is reprogrammed or the device loses power.
Please note that the RCR contents can only be set or changed when the CellularRAM is in idle state.

Partial Array Self Refresh (PASR)
By applying PASR the user can dynamically customize the memory capacity to one’s actual needs in normal
operation mode and standby mode. With the activation of PASR there is no longer a power penalty paid for the
larger CellularRAM memory capacity in case only e.g. 8 Mbits are used by the host system.
Bit2 down to bit0 specify the active memory array and its location (starting from bottom or top). The memory parts
not used are powered down immediately after the mode register has been programmed. Advice for the proper
register setting including the address ranges is given in Figure 7.

PASR Programming Scheme
PASR is activated, i.e. the memory parts not used are powered down, after ZZ has been held low for more than
10µs. In PASR state no READ or WRITE commands are recognized. To resume WRITE or READ operations, the
device must exit PASR by taking ZZ to high level voltage again.
Pre-condition to enter PASR on ZZ low is that the Deep Power Down mode has been disabled before via
RCR.Bit4= 1.
Figure 8 shows an exemplary PASR configuration where it is assumed that the application uses max. 8 Mbit out
of 16 Mbit.

Deep Power Down Mode
To put the device in deep power down mode, it is required to comply with 2-steps. At first, the DPD mode bit must
be set to be enabled in the Refresh Configuration Register. When DPD entry is really required, ZZ pin must be
asserted to low for longer than 10µs. Between these 2 steps, any normal operations are permitted. Once the
device enters into this extreme low power mode, current consumption is cut down to less than 25µA.
All internal voltage generators inside the CelllularRAM are switched off and the internal self-refresh is stopped.
This means that all stored information will be lost in any time. The device will remain in DPD mode as long as ZZ
is held low.To exit the Deep Power Down mode, it is needed to simply bring ZZ to high voltage level. A guard time
of at least 150µs has to be met where no commands beside DESELECT must be applied to re-enter standby or
idle mode. (see Figure 16).
2.3.3
Temperature Compensated Self Refresh (TCSR)
The 2-bit wide TCSR field features four different temperature ranges to adjust the refresh period to the actual case
temperature. DRAM technology requires higher refresh rates at higher temperature. At low temperature the
refresh rate can be reduced, which reduces as well the standby current of the chip. This feature can be used in
addition to PAR to lower power consumption in case of low or medium temperatures. Please refer to Table 5.

Page Mode Enable/Disable
In asynchronous operation mode, the user has the option to enable page mode to toggle A0 - A3 in random way
at higher cycle rate (20 ns vs. 70 ns) to lower access times of subsequent reads within 16-word boundary. Write
operation is not supported in the manner of page mode access. In synchronous mode, this option has no effect.
The max. page length is 16 words, so which A0 - A3 is regarded as page-mode address. If the access needs to
cross the boundary of 16-word (any difference in A18 - A4), then it should start over new random access cycle,
which is the same as asynchronous read operation.
Please note that as soon as page mode is enabled the CS1 low time restriction applies. This means that the CS1
signal must not kept low longer than tCSL = 10 µs. Please refer to Figure 11.

[Disclaimer]
A20 input shown in timing diagrams is not used in 16Mbit CellularRAM. Should be “don’t care”.
The CellularRAM applies the standard asynchronous SRAM protocol to perform read and write accesses.
Reading from the device in asynchronous mode is accomplished by asserting the Chip Select (CS1) and Output
Enable (OE) signals to low while forcing Write Enable (WE) to high. If the Upper Byte (UB) control line is set active
low then the upper word of the addressed data is driven on the output lines, DQ15 to DQ8. If the Lower Byte (LB)
control line is set active low then the lower word of the addressed data is driven on the output lines, DQ7 to DQ0.

Page Read Mode
If activated by RCR.Bit7 page mode allows to toggle the four lower address bits (A3 to A0) to perform subsequent
random read accesses (max. 16-words by A3 - A0) at much faster speed than 1st read access. Page mode
operation supports only read access in CellularRAM. As soon as page mode is activated, CS1 low time restriction
(tCSL ) applies. In case of CS1 staying low longer than tCSL limit, then it is alternative way to toggle non-page address
(A18 - A4) no later than tCSL,max. Therefore the usage of page mode is only recommended in systems which can
respect this limitation.

Asynchronous Write
Writing to the device in asynchronous mode is accomplished by asserting the Chip Select (CS1) and Write Enable
(WE) signals to low. If the Upper Byte (UB) control line is set active low then the upper word (DQ15 to DQ8) of the
data bus is written to the specified memory location. If the Lower Byte (LB) control line is set active low then the
lower word (DQ7 to DQ0) of the data bus is written to the specified memory location. Write operation takes place
when either one or both UB and LB is asserted low. The data is latched by the rising edge of either CS1, WE, or
UB/LB whichever signal comes first.

Deep Power Down Mode Entry/ Exit
To put the device in deep power down mode, it is required to comply with 2-step operation. At first, the DPD mode
bit (RCR.bit4) has be programmed to be enabled in the Refresh Configuration Register through SCR command.
When DPD entry is really required, ZZ pin must be asserted to low for longer than 10µs while CS1 sets to high as
shown in Figure 15. Between these 2 steps, any normal operations are permitted. Once the device enters into this
extreme low power mode, current consumption is cut down to less than 25µA.
Please note that 2 step operation for DPD entry is not designed to take place at a time when ZZ is held low. In
case of back-to-back operation to perform 2 steps, it is required to meet ZZ precharge time (tZPH).
All internal voltage generators inside the CelllularRAM are switched off and the internal self-refresh is stopped.
This means that all stored information will be lost in any time. The device will remain in DPD mode as long as ZZ
is held low. To exit the Deep Power Down mode, it is needed to simply bring ZZ to high voltage level. A guard time
of at least 150µs (tR) has to be met where no commands beside DESELECT must be applied to re-enter standby
or idle mode.

Asynchronous Access
Depending on the random access frequency two cases are distinguished:
High Frequency Mode (≥ 100 kHz):
There are no tRC max. time nor CS1/OE max. low time restrictions during subsequent random read or write
accesses.
Low Frequency Mode (< 100 kHz):
There are no tRC max. time nor CS1/OE max. low time restrictions if all control signals (CS1, OE, WE, UB/LB)
follow the modified timing as shown below, see attached timing diagram and timing table. There is no extra mode
register setting necessary.

Appendix B: S/W Register Entry Mode (“4-cycle method”)

Appendix B: S/W Register Entry Mode (“4-cycle method”)
Other than ZZ-controlled SCR operation, CellularRAM supports software (S/W) method as an alternative to
access the control registers. Since S/W register entry mode consists of 4 consecutive access cycles to top memory
location (all addresses are “1”), it is often referred as “4-cycle method”. 4-cycles starts from 2 back-to-back read
cycles (initializing command identification) followed by one write cycle (command identification completed and
refresh control register is accessed), then final write cycle for configuring the RCR by the given input or read cycle
to check the content of the register through DQ pins. It does function the configuration of control register bits like
the way with dedicated pin, ZZ method, but there are a few differences from ZZ-controlled method as follow;
•
•
•
•
•
Register read mode (checking content) is supported with S/W register entry as well as register write (program).
The mode bits for control register are supplied through DQ <15:0> instead of address pins in ZZ-controlled.
Though each register has 20-bits (A<19:0>) for 16M CellularRAM, only low 16-bit registers becomes valid
during S/W method.
The valid selection of refresh control register, RCR, is done with the state of DQ<15:0> given at 3rd cycle.
(“00h”)
Since S/W register entry asks for 4 complete access cycles in a row and the device is designed operating with
internally regulated supply which is going to be discharged in deep power-down (DPD) mode, DPD function
is not supported with this programming method.
The method is realized by the device exactly when 2 consecutive read cycles to top memory location is
followed by write cycle to the same location, so that any exceptional cycle combination - not only access mode,
but also the number of cycles - will fail in invoking the register entry mode properly.
