Overview
Cypress Semiconductor Corporation’s (Cypress’s) CYNSE70032 network search engine (NSE) incorporates patent-pending
Associative Processing Technology™ (APT) and is designed to be a high-performance, pipelined, synchronous, 16K-entry NSE.
The CYNSE70032 database entry size can be 68, 136, or 272 bits. In the 68-bit entry mode, the size of the database is 16K
entries. In the 136-bit mode, the size of the database is 8K entries, and in the 272-bit mode, the size of the database is 4K entries.
The CYNSE70032 is configurable to support multiple databases with different entry sizes. The 36-bit entry table can be implemented using the global mask registers (GMRs) building-database size of 32K entries with a single device.
The search engine can sustain 83 million transactions per second when the database is programmed or configured as 68 or 136
bits. When the database is programmed to have an entry size of 34 or 272 bits, the search engine will perform at 41.5 million
transactions per second. The CYNSE70032 can be used to accelerate network protocols such as longest-prefix match (CIDR),
address-resolution protocol (ARP), multiprotocol label switching (MPLS), and other layer 2, 3, and 4 protocols.
This high-speed, high-capacity NSE can be deployed in a variety of networking and communications applications. The performance and features of the CYNSE70032 device make it attractive in applications such as Enterprise local-area network (LAN)
switches and routers and broadband switching and/or routing equipment supporting multiple data rates at OC-48 and beyond.
The NSE is designed to be scalable in order to support network database sizes of up to 992K entries specifically for environments
that require large network policy databases. The block diagram for the CYNSE70032 device is shown on page 10.

Functional Description
The following subsections contain the following descriptions: command (CMD) and DQ bus (command and databus), database
entry, arbitration logic, pipeline and SRAM control, and full logic.
4.1
Command Bus and DQ Bus
CMD[8:0] carries the command and its associated parameter. DQ[67:0] is used for data transfer to and from the database entries,
which is made up of data and mask fields that are organized as data and mask arrays. The DQ bus carries the Search data (of
the data and mask arrays and internal registers) during the Search command, as well as the address and data during Read or
Write operations. The DQ bus can also carry address information for the flow-through accesses to the external SRAMs or
SSRAMs.
4.2
Database Entry (Data Array and Mask Array)
Each database entry comprises a data and a mask field. The resultant value of the entry is “1,” “0,” or “X (don’t care),” depending
on the value in the data mask bit. The on-chip priority encoder selects the first matching entry in the database that is nearest to
location 0.
4.3
Arbitration Logic
When multiple search engines are cascaded to create large databases, the data being searched is presented simultaneously to
all search engines in the cascaded system. If multiple matches occur within the cascaded devices, arbitration logic on the search
engines will enable the winning device (with a matching entry that is closest to address 0 of the cascaded database) to drive the
SRAM bus.

Pipeline and SRAM Control
Pipeline latency is added to give enough time to a cascaded system’s arbitration logic to determine the device that will drive the
index of the matching entry on the SRAM bus. Pipeline logic adds latency to both the SRAM access cycles and the SSF and SSV
signals in order to align them to the host ASIC that receives the associated data.
4.5
Full Logic
Bit[0] in each of the 68-bit entries has a special purpose for the Learn command (0 = empty, 1 = full). When all the data entries
have bit[0] set to 1, the database asserts the FULL flag, indicating that all the search engines in the depth-cascaded array are full.

Command Bus. [1:0] specifies the command and [8:2] contains the command parameters. The descriptions of individual commands explains the details of the parameters.
The encoding of commands based on the [1:0] field are:
00: PIO Read
01: PIO Write
10: Search
11: Learn.
Command Valid. This signal qualifies the command bus:
0: No command
1: Command.
Address/Data Bus. This signal carries the Read and Write address and data during
register, data, and mask array operations. It carries the compare data during Search
operations. It also carries the SRAM address during SRAM PIO accesses.
Read Acknowledge. This signal indicates that valid data is available on the DQ bus
during register, data, and mask array Read operations, or that the data is available on the
SRAM data bus during SRAM Read operations.
End of Transfer. This signal indicates the end of burst transfer to the data or mask array
during Read or Write burst operations.
Search Successful Flag. When asserted, this signal indicates that the device is the
global winner in a Search operation.
Search Successful Flag Valid. When asserted, this signal qualifies the SSF signal.
SRAM Address. This bus contains address lines to access off-chip SRAMs that contain
associative data. See Table 15-1 for the details of the generated SRAM address. In a
database of multiple CYNSE70032 devices, each corresponding bit of the SRAM address
from all cascaded devices must be connected.
SRAM Chip Enable. This is the chip-enable control for external SRAMs. In a database
of multiple CYNSE70032 devices, CE_L of all cascaded devices must be connected. This
signal is then driven by only one of the devices.
SRAM Write Enable. This is the write-enable control for external SRAMs. In a database
of multiple CYNSE70032 devices, WE_L of all cascaded devices must be connected
together. This signal is then driven by only one of the devices.
Notes:
1. I = Input only, I/O = Input or Output, O = Output only, T = three-state output.
2. ACK and EOT require a weak external pull-down such as 47KΩ or 100KΩ.

Description
SRAM Output Enable. This is the output-enable control for external SRAMs. Only the
last device drives this signal (with the LRAM bit set).
Address Latch Enable. When this signal is low, the addresses are valid on the SRAM
address bus. In a database of multiple CYNSE70032s, the ALE_L of all cascaded devices
must be connected. This signal is then driven by only one of the devices.
Local Hit In. These pins depth cascade the device to form a larger table. One signal of
this bus is connected to the LHO[1] or LHO[0] of each of the upstream devices in a block.
All unused LHI pins are connected to a logic 0. (For more information, see Section 14.0,
“Depth-Cascading” on page 96.)
Local Hit Out. LHO[1] and LHO[0] are the same logical signal. Either the LHO[1] or the
LHO[0] is connected to one input of the LHI bus of up to four downstream devices in a
block of up to eight. (For more information see Section 14.0, “Depth-Cascading” on
page 96.)
Block Hit In. Inputs from the previous block BHO[2:0] are tied to the BHI[2:0] of the current
device. In a four-block system, the last block can contain only seven devices because the
identification code 11111 is used for broadcast access.
Block Hit Out. These outputs from the last device in a block are connected to the BHI[2:0]
inputs of the devices in the downstream blocks.
Full In. Each signal in this bus is connected to FULO[0] or FULO[1] of an upstream device
to generate the FULL flag for the depth-cascaded block.
Full Out. FULO[1] and FULO[0] are the same logical signal. One of these two signals
must be connected to the FULI of up to four downstream devices in a depth-cascaded
table. Bit[0] in the data array indicates whether the entry is full (1) or empty (0).This signal
is asserted if all bits in the data array are 1s. (Refer to Section 14.0, “Depth-Cascading”
on page 96, for information on how to generate the FULL flag.)
Full Flag. When asserted, this signal indicates that the table of multiple depth-cascaded
devices is full.
Device Identification. The binary-encoded device identification for a depth-cascaded
system starts at 00000 and goes up to 11110. 11111 is reserved for a special broadcast
address that selects all cascaded search engines in the system. On a broadcast
Read-only, the device with the LDEV bit set to 1 responds.

Registers
All registers in the CYNSE70032 are 68 bits wide. The CYNSE70032 device contains sixteen pairs of comparand storage
registers, eight pairs of GMRs, eight search successful index registers and one each of command, information, burst Read, burst
Write, and next-free address registers. Table 7-1 provides an overview of all the CYNSE70032 registers. The registers are listed

Comparand Registers
The device contains 32 68-bit comparand registers (sixteen pairs) dynamically selected in every Search operation to store the
comparand presented on the DQ bus. The Learn command will later use these registers when it is executed. The CYNSE70032
device stores the Search command’s cycle A comparand in the even-numbered register and its cycle B comparand in the
odd-numbered register, as shown in Figure 7-1.

Mask Registers
The device contains sixteen 68-bit global mask registers (eight pairs) dynamically selected in every Search operation to select
the search subfield. The addressing of these registers is explained in Figure 7-2. The three-bit GMR Index supplied on the CMD
bus can apply eight pairs of global masks during the Search and Write operations, as shown below. Note. In 68-bit Search and
Write operations, the host ASIC must program both the even and odd mask registers with the same values.

Each mask bit in the GMRs is used during Search and Write operations. In Search operations, setting the mask bit to 1 enables
compares; setting the mask bit to 0 disables compares (forced match) at the corresponding bit position. In Write operations to
the data or mask array, setting the mask bit to 1 enables writes; setting the mask bit to 0 disables writes at the corresponding bit
position.
7.3
Search Successful Registers (SSR[0:7])
The device contains eight SSRs to hold the index of the location where a successful search occurred. The format of each register
is described in Table 7-2. The Search command specifies which SSR stores the index of a specific Search command in cycle B
of the Search instruction. Subsequently, the host ASIC can use this register to access that data array, mask array, or external
SRAM using the index as part of the indirect access address (see Table 7-2 and Table 8-1). The device with a valid bit set performs
a Read or Write operation. All other devices suppress the operation.

Description
Index. This is the address of the 68-bit entry where a successful Search occurs. The device
updates this field only when the Search is successful. If a hit occurs in a 136-bit entry-size
quadrant, the least significant bit (LSB) is 0. If a hit occurs in a 272-bit entry-size quadrant,
the two LSBs are 00. This index updates if the device is either a local or global winner in
a Search operation.

Software Reset. If 1, this bit resets the device with the same effect as a hardware reset.
Internally, it generates a reset pulse lasting for eight CLK cycles. This bit automatically

Device Enable. If 0, it keeps the SRAM bus (SADR, WE_L, CE_L, OE_L, and ALE_L),
SSF, and SSV signals in a three-state condition and forces the cascade interface output
signals LHO[1:0] and BHO[2:0] to 0. It also keeps the DQ bus in input mode. The purpose
of this bit is to make sure that there are no bus contentions when the devices power up
in the system.

Description
Table Size. The host ASIC must program this field to configure the chips into a table of
a certain size. This field affects the pipeline latency of the Search and Learn operations
as well as the Read and Write accesses to the SRAM (SADR[21:0], CE_L, OE_L, WE_L,
ALE_L, SSV, SSF, and ACK). Once programmed, the Search latency stays constant.
The latency by number of CLK cycles is as follows:
00: One device
4
01: Up to eight devices 5
10: Up to 31 devices
6
11: Reserved.
Latency of Hit Signals. This field further adds latency to the SSF and SSV signals by
the following number of CLK cycles during searches and ACKs in an SRAM Read access:
000: 0 100: 4
001: 1 101: 5
010: 2 110: 6
011: 3 111: 7.
Last Device in the Cascade. When set, this is the last device in the depth-cascaded
table and is the default driver for the SSF and SSV signals. In the event of a Search failure,
the device with this bit set drives the hit signals as follows: SSF = 0, SSV = 1.
During nonSearch cycles, the device with this bit set drives the signals as follows:
SSF = 0, SSV = 0.
Last Device on the SRAM Bus. When set, this device is the last device on the SRAM
bus in the depth-cascaded table and is the default driver for the SADR, CE_L, WE_L, and
ALE_L signals. In cycles where no CYNSE70032 device (in a depth-cascaded table)
drives these signals, the signals are driven as follows: SADR = 22’h3FFFFF, CE_L = 1,
WE_L = 1, and ALE_L = 1. OE_L is always driven by the device for which this bit is set.
Database Configuration. The device is divided internally into four partitions of 8K × 68
bits, each of which can be configured as 8K × 68 bits, 4K × 136 bits, or 2K × 272 bits, as
follows:
00: 4K × 68 bits

NFA Register
Bit[0] of each 68-bit data entry is specially designated for use in the operation of the Learn command. For 68-bit-configured
quadrants, this bit indicates whether a location is full (bit set to 1) or empty (bit set to 0). Every Write or Learn command loads
the address of the first 68-bit location containing a 0 into the entry’s bit[0]. This is stored in the NFA register (see Table 9-4). If all
the bits[0] in a device are set to 1, the CYNSE70032 asserts FULO[1:0] to 1.
For a 136-bit-configured quadrants, the LSB of the NFA register is always set to 0. The host ASIC must set both bit[0] and bit[68]
in a 136-bit word to either 0 or 1 to indicate full or empty status. Both bit[0] and bit[68] must be set to either 0 or 1, (that is, the 10
or 01 settings are invalid).

During a Search operation, the Search data bit (S), the data array bit (D), the mask array bit (M), and the global mask bit (G) are
used in the following manner to generate a match at that bit position (see Table 10-1). The entry with a match on every bit position
results in a successful Search during a Search operation.

In order for a successful Search to make the device the local winner in the Search operation, all 68-bit positions within a device
must generate a match for a 68-bit entry in 68-bit-configured quadrants, or all 136-bit positions must generate a match for two
consecutive even and odd 68-bit entries in quadrants configured as 136 bits, or all 272-bit positions must generate a match for
four consecutive entries aligned to four entry-page boundaries of 68-bit entries in quadrants configured as 272 bits.
An arbitration mechanism using a cascade bus determines the global winning device among the local winning devices in a Search
cycle. The global winning device drives the SRAM bus, SSV, and the SSF signals. In the case of a Search failure, the device(s)
with LDEV and LRAM bits set drive the SRAM bus, SSF, and SSV signals.
The CYNSE70032 device can be configured to contain tables of different widths, even within the same chip. Figure 10-2 shows
a sample configuration of different widths.

Read Command
The Read can be a single Read of a data array, a mask array, an SRAM, or a register location (CMD[2] = 0). It can be a burst
Read of the data (CMD[2] = 1) or mask array locations using an internal autoincrementing address register (RBURADR).
A description of each type is provided in Table 12-3. A single-location Read operation lasts six cycles, as shown in Figure 12-1.
The burst Read adds two cycles for each successive Read. The SADR[21:19] bits supplied in Read instruction cycle A drive
SADR[21:19] signals during the Read of an SRAM location.

Description
Single Read
Reads a single location of the data array, mask array, external SRAM, or device
registers. All access information is applied on the DQ bus.
Burst Read
Reads a block of locations from the data or mask arrays as a burst. The RBURADR
specifies the starting address and the length of the data transfer from the data or
mask array, and it autoincrements the address for each access. All other access
information is applied on the DQ bus. Note. The device registers and external
SRAM can only be read in single-Read mode.
Note:
5. The 272-bit-configured devices or 272-bit-configured quadrants within devices do not support the Learn instruction.

Figure 12-1. Single-Location Read Cycle Timing
The single Read operation takes six clock cycles that are performed in the following sequence.
• Cycle 1: The host ASIC applies the Read instruction on CMD[1:0] (CMD[2] = 0) using CMDV = 1, and the DQ bus supplies
the address as shown in Table 12-4 and Table 12-5. The host ASIC selects the CYNSE70032 device for which ID[4:0] matches
the DQ[25:21] lines. If DQ[25:21] = 11111, the host ASIC selects the CYNSE70032 with the LDEV bit set. The host ASIC also
supplies SADR[21:19] on CMD[8:6] in cycle A of the Read instruction if the Read is directed to the external SRAM.
• Cycle 2: The host ASIC floats DQ[67:0] to a three-state condition.
• Cycle 3: The host ASIC keeps DQ[67:0] in a three-state condition.
• Cycle 4: The selected device starts to drive the DQ[67:0] bus, and drives the ACK signal from Z to low.
• Cycle 5: The selected device drives the Read data from the addressed location on the DQ[67:0] bus, and drives the ACK
signal high.
• Cycle 6: The selected device floats the DQ[67:0] to a three-state condition and drives the ACK signal low.
At the termination of cycle 6, the selected device releases the ACK line to a three-state condition. The Read instruction is
complete, and a new operation can begin. Note. The latency of the SRAM Read will be different than the one described above
(see Subsection 15.2, “SRAM PIO Access” on page 99). Table 12-4 lists and describes the format of the Read address for a data
array, mask array, or SRAM.
Table 12-5 describes the Read address format for the internal registers. Figure 12-2 illustrates the timing diagram for the burst

The read operation lasts 4 + 2n CLK cycles (where n is the number of accesses in the burst specified by the BLEN field of the
RBURREG) in the sequence shown below. This operation assumes that the host ASIC has programmed the RBURREG with the
ADR and the BLEN before initiating a burst Read command.
• Cycle 1: The host ASIC applies the Read instruction on CMD[1:0] (CMD[2] = 1) using CMDV = 1 and the address supplied
on the DQ bus as shown in Table 12-6. The host ASIC selects the CYNSE70032 device where ID[4:0] matches the DQ[25:21]
lines. If DQ[25:21] = 11111, the host ASIC selects the CYNSE70032 device with the LDEV bit set.
• Cycle 2: The host ASIC floats DQ[67:0] to a three-state condition.
• Cycle 3: The host ASIC keeps DQ[67:0] in a three-state condition.
• Cycle 4: The selected device starts to drive the DQ[67:0] bus, and drives ACK and EOT from Z to low.
• Cycle 5: The selected device drives the Read data from the addressed location on the DQ[67:0] bus and drives the ACK signal
high.
Cycles 4 and 5 repeat for each additional access until all the accesses specified in the BLEN field of the RBURREG are complete.
On the last transfer, the CYNSE70032 device drives the EOT signal high.
• Cycle (4 + 2n): The selected device drives the DQ[67:0] to a three-state condition, and drives the ACK and EOT signals low.
At the termination of cycle (4 + 2n), the selected device floats the ACK line to a three-state condition. The burst Read instruction
is complete, and a new operation can begin. Table 12-6 describes the Read address format for data and mask arrays for burst
Read operations.

Write Command
The Write command can be a single Write of a data array, mask array, register, or an external SRAM location (CMD[2] = 0). It
can also be a burst Write (CMD[2] = 1) using an internal auto-incrementing address register (WBURADR) of the data or mask
array locations. A single-location Write is a three-cycle operation as shown in Figure 12-3. The burst Write adds one extra cycle
for each successive location Write.

The following is the Write operation sequence, and Table 12-7 shows the Write address format for the data array, the mask array,
or the single-Write SRAM. Table 12-8 shows the Write address format for the internal registers.
• Cycle 1A: The host ASIC applies the Write instruction to CMD[1:0] (CMD[2] = 0) using CMDV = 1 and the address supplied
on the DQ bus. The host ASIC also supplies the GMR Index to mask the write to the data or mask array location on CMD[5:3].
For SRAM Writes, the host ASIC must supply SADR[21:19] on CMD[8:6].
• Cycle 1B: The host ASIC continues to apply the Write instruction to CMD[1:0] (CMD[2] = 0) using CMDV = 1 and the address
supplied on the DQ bus. The host ASIC continues to supply the GMR Index to mask the Write to the data or mask array
locations in CMD[5:3]. The host ASIC selects the device where ID[4:0] matches the DQ[25:21] lines, or it selects all the devices
when DQ[25:21] = 11111.
• Cycle 2: The host ASIC drives the DQ[67:0] with the data to be written to the data array, the mask array, or the register location
of the selected device.
• Cycle 3: Idle cycle.
At the termination of cycle 3, another operation can begin. Note. The latency of the SRAM Write will be different than the one
described above (see Subsection 15.2, “SRAM PIO Access” on page 99).

Figure 12-4. Burst Write of the Data and Mask Arrays (BLEN = 4)
The burst Write operation lasts for (n + 2) CLK cycles. n signifies the number of accesses in the burst as specified in the BLEN
field of the WBURREG. The following is the block Write operation sequence. This operation assumes that the host ASIC has
programmed the WBURREG with the ADR and the BLEN before initiating a burst Write command.
• Cycle 1A: The host ASIC applies the Write instruction to CMD[1:0] (CMD[2] = 1) using CMDV = 1, and the address supplied
on the DQ bus, as shown in Table 12-9. The host ASIC also supplies the GMR Index to mask the Write to the data or mask
array locations in CMD[5:3].
• Cycle 1B: The host ASIC continues to apply the Write instruction on CMD[1:0] (CMD[2] = 1) using CMDV = 1 and the address
supplied on the DQ bus. The host ASIC continues to supply the GMR Index to mask the Write to the data or mask array
locations in CMD[5:3]. The host ASIC selects the device for which ID[4:0] matches the DQ[25:21] lines. It selects all the devices
when DQ[25:21] = 11111.
• Cycle 2: The host ASIC drives the DQ[67:0] with the data to be written to the data or mask array location of the selected device.
The CYNSE70032 device writes the data from the DQ[67:0] bus only to the subfield that has the corresponding mask bit set
to 1 in the GMR specified by the index CMD[5:3]supplied in cycle 1.
• Cycles 3 to n + 1: The host ASIC drives DQ[67:0] with the data to be written to the next data or mask array location of the
selected device (addressed by the auto-increment ADR field of the WBURREG register).
The CYNSE70032 device writes the data on the DQ[67:0] bus only to the subfield that has the corresponding mask bit set to 1
in the GMR that is specified by the index CMD[5:3] supplied in cycle 1. The CYNSE70032 device drives the EOT signal low from
cycle 3 to cycle n; the CYNSE70032 device drives the EOT signal high in cycle n + 1 (n is specified in the BLEN field of the
WBURREG).
• Cycle n + 2: TheCYNSE70032 drives the EOT signal low.
At the termination of cycle n + 2, the CYNSE70032 device floats the EOT signal to a three-state operation, and a new instruction
can begin.

Figure 13-2. Hardware Diagram for a Table with a Single Device
The following is the sequence of operation for a single 68-bit Search command (also refer to “Command and Command Parameters,” Subsection 12.2 on page 19).
• Cycle A: The host ASIC drives CMDV high and applies Search command code (10) on CMD[1:0] signals. CMD[5:3] signals
must be driven by the index to the GMR pair for use in this Search operation. CMD[8:6] signals must be driven with the same
bits that will be driven on SADR[21:19] by this device if it has a hit. DQ[67:0] must be driven with the 68-bit data to be compared.
The CMD[2] signal must be driven to logic 0.
• Cycle B: The host ASIC continues to drive CMDV high and to apply Search command (10) on CMD[1:0]. CMD[5:2] must be
driven by the index of the comparand register pair for storing the 136-bit word presented on the DQ bus during cycles A and
B. CMD[8:6] signals must be driven with the index of the SSR that will be used for storing the address of the matching entry
and the hit flag (see page 14 for information on SSR[0:7]). The DQ[67:0] continues to carry the 68-bit data to be compared.
Note. For 68-bit searches, the host ASIC must supply the same 68-bit data on DQ[67:0] during both cycles A and B. The even
and odd GMR pairs selected for the compare must be programmed with the same value.
The logical 68-bit Search operation is shown in Figure 13-3. The entire table of 68-bit entries is compared to a 68-bit word K
(presented on the DQ bus in both cycles A and B of the command) using the GMR and the local mask bits. The effective GMR
is the 68-bit word specified by the identical value in both even and odd GMR pairs selected by the GMR Index in the command’s
cycle A. The 68-bit word K (presented on the DQ bus in both cycles A and B of the command) is also stored in both even and
odd comparand register pairs selected by the Comparand Register Index in the command’s cycle B. In a ×68 configuration, only
the even comparand register can subsequently be used by the Learn command. The word K (presented on the DQ bus in both
cycles A and B of the command) is compared with each entry in the table, starting at location 0. The first matching entry’s location
address L is the winning address that is driven as part of the SRAM address on the SADR[21:0] lines (see “SRAM Addressing”
on page 98).

68-bit Search on Tables Configured as ×68 Using up to Eight CYNSE70032 Devices
The hardware diagram of the Search subsystem of eight devices is shown in Figure 13-4. The following are the parameters
programmed into the eight devices.
• First seven devices (devices 0–6): CFG = 00000000, TLSZ = 01, HLAT = 010, LRAM = 0, and LDEV = 0.
• Eighth device (device 7): CFG = 00000000, TLSZ = 01, HLAT = 010, LRAM = 1, and LDEV = 1.
Note. All eight devices must be programmed with the same values for TLSZ and HLAT. Only the last device in the table (device
number 7 in this case) must be programmed with LRAM = 1 and LDEV = 1. All other upstream devices (devices 0 through 6 in
this case) must be programmed with LRAM = 0 and LDEV = 0.
Figure 13-5 shows the timing diagram for a Search command in the 68-bit-configured table of eight devices for device number 0.
Figure 13-6 shows the timing diagram for a Search command in the 68-bit-configured table of eight devices for device number 1.
Figure 13-7 shows the timing diagram for a Search command in the 68-bit-configured table of eight devices for device number 7
(the last device in this specific table). For these timing diagrams four 68-bit searches are performed sequentially. HIT/MISS
assumptions were made as shown below in Table 13-3.

Figure 13-7. Timing Diagram for 68-bit Search Device Number 7 (Last Device)
The following is the sequence of operation for a single 68-bit Search command (also refer to “Command and Command Parameters,” Subsection 12.2 on page 19).
• Cycle A: The host ASIC drives CMDV high and applies Search command code (10) to CMD[1:0] signals. CMD[5:3] signals
must be driven with the index to the GMR pair for use in this Search operation. CMD[8:6] signals must be driven with the same
bits that will be driven on SADR[21:19] by this device if it has a hit. DQ[67:0] must be driven with the 68-bit data to be compared.
The CMD[2] signal must be driven to logic 0.
• Cycle B: The host ASIC continues to drive CMDV high and to apply Search command (10) on CMD[1:0]. CMD[5:2] must be
driven by the index of the comparand register pair for storing the 136-bit word presented on the DQ bus during cycles A and
B. CMD[8:6] signals must be driven with the index of the SSR that will be used for storing the address of the matching entry
and hit flag (see page 14 for a description of SSR[0:7]). The DQ[67:0] continues to carry the 68-bit data to be compared.
Note. For 68-bit searches, the host ASIC must supply the same 68-bit data on DQ[67:0] during both cycles A and B. The even
and odd GMR pairs selected for the comparison must also be programmed with the same value.
The logical 68-bit Search operation is shown in Figure 13-8. The entire table of eight devices of 68-bit entries is compared to a
68-bit word K (presented on the DQ bus in both cycles A and B of the command) using the GMR and local mask bits. The effective
GMR is the 68-bit word specified by the identical value in both even and odd GMR pairs in each of the eight devices and selected
by the GMR Index in the command’s cycle A. The 68-bit word K (presented on the DQ bus in both cycles A and B of the command)
is also stored in both even and odd comparand register pairs (selected by the Comparand Register Index in command cycle B)
in each of the eight devices. In the ×68 configuration, only the even comparand register can subsequently be used by the Learn
command in one of the devices (the first non-full device only). The word K (presented on the DQ bus in both cycles A and B of
Document #: 38-02042 Rev. *E
Page 30 of 126
CYNSE70032
the command) is compared with each entry in the table, starting at location 0. The first matching entry’s location address L is the
winning address that is driven as part of the SRAM address on the SADR[21:0] lines (see “SRAM Addressing” on page 98). The
global winning device will drive the bus in a specific cycle. On a global miss cycle the device with LRAM = 1 (default driving device
for the SRAM bus) and LDEV = 1 (default driving device for SSF and SSV signals) will be the default driver for such missed cycles.

The Search command is a pipelined operation and executes a Search at half the rate of the frequency of CLK2X for 68-bit
searches in ×68-configured tables. The latency of SADR, CE_L, ALE_L, WE_L, SSV, and SSF from the 68-bit Search command
cycle (two CLK2X cycles) is shown in Table 13-4.

68-bit Search on Tables Configured as ×68 Using up to 31 CYNSE70032 Devices
The hardware diagram of the Search subsystem of 31 devices is shown in Figure 13-9. Each of the four blocks in the diagram
represents eight CYNSE70032 devices (except the last, which has seven devices). The diagram for a block of eight devices is
shown in Figure 13-10. The following are the parameters that are programmed into the 31 devices.
• First thirty devices (devices 0–29): CFG = 00000000, TLSZ = 10, HLAT = 001, LRAM = 0, and LDEV = 0.
• Thirty-first device (device 30): CFG = 00000000, TLSZ = 10, HLAT = 001, LRAM = 1, and LDEV = 1.
Note. All devices must be programmed with the same values for TLSZ and HLAT. Only the last device in the table (device
number 30 in this case) must be programmed with LRAM = 1 and LDEV = 1. All other upstream devices (devices 0 through 29
in this case) must be programmed with LRAM = 0 and LDEV = 0.

The timing diagrams referred to in this paragraph reference the Hit/Miss assumptions defined in Table 13-6. For the purpose of
illustrating timings, it is further assumed that the there is only one device with a matching entry in each of the blocks. Figure 13-11
shows the timing diagram for a Search command in the 68-bit-configured table of 31 devices for each of the eight devices in block
number 0. Figure 13-12 shows a timing diagram for a Search command in the 68-bit-configured table of 31 devices for all the
devices in block number 1 (above the winning device in that block). Figure 13-13 shows the timing diagram for the globally winning
device (defined as the final winner within its own and all blocks) in block number 1. Figure 13-14 shows the timing diagram for
all the devices below the globally winning device in block number 1. Figure 13-15, Figure 13-16, and Figure 13-17, respectively,
show the timing diagrams of the devices above the globally winning device, the globally winning device, and the devices below
the globally winning device for block number 2. Figure 13-18, Figure 13-19, Figure 13-20, and Figure 13-21, respectively, show
the timing diagrams of the devices above the globally winning device, the globally winning device, and the devices below the
globally winning device except the last device (device 30) for block number 3.
The 68-bit Search operation is pipelined and executed as follows. Four cycles from the Search command, each of the devices
knows the outcome internal to it for that operation. In the fifth cycle after the Search command, the devices in a block arbitrate
for a winner amongst them (a “block” being defined as less than or equal to eight devices resolving the winner between them
using the LHI[6:0] and LHO[1:0] signalling mechanisms). In the sixth cycle after the Search command, the blocks resolve the
winning block through the BHI[2:0] and BHO[2:0] signalling mechanisms. The winning device within the winning block is the global
winning device for a Search operation.

Figure 13-21. Timing Diagram for Device Number 6 in Block Number 3
(Device Number 30 in Depth-Cascaded Table)
The following is the sequence of operation for a single 68-bit Search command (also refer to “Command and Command Parameters,” Subsection 12.2 on page 19).
• Cycle A: The host ASIC drives CMDV high and applies Search command code (10) on CMD[1:0] signals. CMD[5:3] signals
must be driven with the index to the GMR pair for use in this Search operation. CMD[8:6] signals must be driven with the same
bits that will be driven on SADR[21:19] by this device if it has a hit. DQ[67:0] must be driven with the 68-bit data to be compared.
The CMD[2] signal must be driven to logic 0.
• Cycle B: The host ASIC continues to drive CMDV high and applies Search command (10) on CMD[1:0]. CMD[5:2] must be
driven by the index of the comparand register pair for storing the 136-bit word presented on the DQ bus during cycles A and
B. CMD[8:6] signals must be driven with the index of the SSR that will be used for storing the address of the matching entry
and the hit flag (see page 14 for the description of SSR[0:7]). The DQ[67:0] continues to carry the 68-bit data to be compared.
Note. For 68-bit searches, the host ASIC must supply the same 68-bit data on DQ[67:0] during both cycles A and B. The even
and odd GMR pairs selected for the compare must be programmed with the same value.
The logical 68-bit Search operation is shown in Figure 13-22. The entire table (31 devices of 68-bit entries) is compared to a 68-bit
word K (presented on the DQ bus in both cycles A and B of the command) using the GMR and the local mask bits. The effective
GMR is the 68-bit word specified by the identical value in both even and odd GMR pairs in each of the eight devices and selected
Document #: 38-02042 Rev. *E
Page 44 of 126
CYNSE70032
by the GMR Index in the command’s cycle A. The 68-bit word K (presented on the DQ bus in cycles A and B of the command)
is also stored in both even and odd comparand register pairs in each of the eight devices (and selected by the Comparand
Register Index in command’s cycle B). In the x68 configuration, the even comparand register can subsequently be used by the
Learn command, but only in the first non-full device. The word K (presented on the DQ bus in cycles A and B of the command)
is compared with each entry in the table, starting at location 0. The first matching entry’s location address L is the winning address
that is driven as part of the SRAM address on the SADR[21:0] lines (see “SRAM Addressing” on page 98). The global winning
device will drive the bus in a specific cycle. On global miss cycles the device with LRAM = 1 and LDEV = 1 will be the default
driver for such missed cycles.

The following is the operation sequence for a single 136-bit Search command (also refer to “Command and Command Parameters,” Subsection 12.2 on page 19).
• Cycle A: The host ASIC drives CMDV high and applies Search command code (10) to CMD[1:0] signals. CMD[5:3] signals
must be driven with the index to the GMR pair for use in this Search operation. CMD[8:6] signals must be driven with the same
bits that will be driven on SADR[21:19] by this device if it has a hit. DQ[67:0] must be driven with the 68-bit data ([135:68]) to
be compared against all even locations. The CMD[2] signal must be driven to logic 0.
• Cycle B: The host ASIC continues to drive CMDV high and applies Search command code (10) on CMD[1:0]. CMD[5:2] must
be driven by the index of the comparand register pair for storing the 136-bit word presented on the DQ bus during cycles A
and B. CMD[8:6] signals must be driven with the index of the SSR that will be used for storing the address of the matching
entry and hit flag (see page 14 for the description of SSR[0:7]). The DQ[67:0] is driven with 68-bit data ([67:0]), compared to
all odd locations.
Document #: 38-02042 Rev. *E
Page 46 of 126
CYNSE70032
Note. For 136-bit searches, the host ASIC must supply two distinct 68-bit data words on DQ[67:0] during cycles A and B. The
even-numbered GMR of the pair specified by the GMR Index is used for masking the word in cycle A. The odd-numbered GMR
of the pair specified by the GMR Index is used for masking the word in cycle B.
The logical 136-bit search operation is shown in Figure 13-25. The entire table of 136-bit entries is compared to a 136-bit word K
(presented on the DQ bus in cycles A and B of the command) using the GMR and local mask bits. The GMR is the 136-bit word
specified by the even and odd global mask pair selected by the GMR Index in the command’s cycle A. The 136-bit word K
(presented on the DQ bus in cycles A and B of the command) is also stored in both even and odd comparand register pairs
selected by the Comparand Register Index in the command’s cycle B. The two comparand registers can subsequently be used
by the Learn command with the even comparand register stored in an even location, and the odd comparand register stored in
an adjacent odd location. The word K (presented on the DQ bus in cycles A and B of the command) is compared with each entry
in the table starting at location 0. The first matching entry’s location address L is the winning address that is driven as part of the
SRAM address on SADR[21:0] lines (see “SRAM Addressing” on page 98). Note. The matching address is always going to be
an even address for a 136-bit Search.

136-bit Search on Tables Configured as ×136 Using up to Eight CYNSE70032 Devices
The hardware diagram of the Search subsystem of eight devices is shown in Figure 13-26. The following are parameters
programmed into the eight devices.
• First seven devices (devices 0–6): CFG = 01010101, TLSZ = 01, HLAT = 010, LRAM = 0, and LDEV = 0.
• Eighth device (device 7): CFG = 01010101, TLSZ = 01, HLAT = 010, LRAM = 1, and LDEV = 1.
Note. All eight devices must be programmed with the same value of TLSZ and HLAT. Only the last device in the table (device
number 7 in this case) must be programmed with LRAM = 1 and LDEV = 1. All other upstream devices (devices 0 through 6 in
this case) must be programmed with LRAM = 0 and LDEV = 0.
Figure 13-27 shows the timing diagram for a Search command in the 136-bit-configured table of eight devices for device
number 0. Figure 13-28 shows the timing diagram for a Search command in the 136-bit-configured table consisting of eight
devices for device number 1. Figure 13-29 shows the timing diagram for a Search command in the 136-bit configured table
consisting of eight devices for device number 7 (the last device in this specific table). For these timing diagrams, four 136-bit
searches are performed sequentially, and the following Hit/Miss assumptions were made (see Table 13-11).

The following is the sequence of operation for a single 136-bit Search command (also see Subsection 12.2, “Commands and
Command Parameters” on page 19).
• Cycle A: The host ASIC drives CMDV high and applies Search command code (10) on CMD[1:0] signals. CMD[5:3] signals
must be driven with the index to the GMR pair for use in this Search operation. CMD[8:6] signals must be driven with the same
bits that will be driven by this device on SADR[21:19] if it has a hit. DQ[67:0] must be driven with the 68-bit data ([135:68]) in
order to be compared against all even locations. The CMD[2] signal must be driven to logic 0.
• Cycle B: The host ASIC continues to drive CMDV high and to apply Search command code (10) on CMD[1:0]. CMD[5:2] must
be driven by the index of the comparand register pair for storing the 136-bit word presented on the DQ bus during cycles A
and B. CMD[8:6] signals must be driven with the SSR index that will be used for storing the address of the matching entry and
the hit flag (see page 14 for the description of SSR[0:7]). The DQ[67:0] is driven with 68-bit data ([67:0]) compared against all
odd locations.
The host ASIC continues to drive CMDV high and to apply Search command code (10) on CMD[1:0]. CMD[5:2] must be driven
by the index of the comparand register pair for storing the 136-bit word presented on the DQ bus during cycles A and B. CMD[8:6]
signals must be driven with the SSR index that will be used for storing the address of the matching entry and the hit flag (see
page 14 for the description of SSR[0:7]). The DQ[67:0] is driven with 68-bit data ([67:0]) compared against all odd locations.
The logical 136-bit Search operation is shown in Figure 13-30. The entire table (eight devices of 136-bit entries) is compared to
a 136-bit word K (presented on the DQ bus in cycles A and B of the command) using the GMR and local mask bits. The GMR is
the 136-bit word specified by the even and odd global mask pair selected by the GMR Index in the command’s cycle A.
Document #: 38-02042 Rev. *E
Page 52 of 126
CYNSE70032
The 136-bit word K (presented on the DQ bus in cycles A and B of the command) is also stored in the even and odd comparand
registers specified by the Comparand Register Index in the command’s cycle B. In ×136 configurations, the even and odd
comparand register can subsequently be used by the Learn command in only one of the devices (the first non-full device). The
word K (presented on the DQ bus in cycles A and B of the command) is compared to each entry in the table, starting at location 0.
The first matching entry’s location address L is the winning address that is driven as part of the SRAM address on the SADR[21:0]
lines (see “SRAM Addressing” on page 98). The global winning device will drive the bus in a specific cycle. On global miss cycles,
the device with LRAM = 1 (the default driving device for the SRAM bus) and LDEV = 1 (the default driving device for SSF and
SSV signals) will be the default driver for such missed cycles. Note. During 136-bit searches of 136-bit-configured tables, the
Search hit will always be at an even address.

The Search command is a pipelined operation and executes a Search at half the rate of the CLK2X frequency for 136-bit searches
in ×136-configured tables. The latency of SADR, CE_L, ALE_L, WE_L, SSV, and SSF from the 136-bit Search command cycle
(two CLK2X cycles) is shown in Table 13-12.

136-bit Search on Tables Configured as ×136 using up to 31 CYNSE70032 Devices
The hardware diagram of the Search subsystem of 31 devices is shown in Figure 13-31. Each of the four blocks in the diagram
represents a block of eight CYNSE70032 devices (except the last, which has seven devices). The diagram for a block of eight
devices is shown in Figure 13-32. The following are the parameters programmed into the 31 devices.
• First 30 devices (devices 0–29): CFG = 01010101, TLSZ = 10, HLAT = 001, LRAM = 0, and LDEV = 0.
• 31st device (device 30): CFG = 01010101, TLSZ = 10, HLAT = 001, LRAM = 1, and LDEV = 1.
Note. All 31 devices must be programmed with the same value of TLSZ and HLAT. Only the last device in the table (device number
30 in this case) must be programmed with LRAM = 1 and LDEV = 1. All other upstream devices (devices 0 through 29 in this
case) must be programmed with LRAM = 0 and LDEV = 0.
The timing diagrams referred to in this paragraph reference the Hit/Miss assumptions listed in Table 13-14. For the purpose of
illustrating timings, it is further assumed that the there is only one device with a matching entry in each of the blocks. Figure 13-33
shows the timing diagram for a Search command in the 136-bit-configured table (31 devices) for each of the eight devices in
block number 0. Figure 13-34 shows the timing diagram for Search command in the 68-bit-configured table (31 devices) for all
devices above the winning device in block number 1. Figure 13-35 shows the timing diagram for the globally winning device (the
winner within its own and all blocks) in block number 1. Figure 13-36 shows the timing diagram for all devices below the globally
winning device in block number 1. Figure 13-37, Figure 13-38, and Figure 13-39, respectively, show the timing diagrams of the
devices above globally winning device, the globally winning device, and the devices below the globally winning device for block
number 2. Figure 13-40, Figure 13-41, Figure 13-42, and Figure 13-43, respectively, show the timing diagrams of the devices
above the globally winning device, the globally winning device, and the devices below the globally winning device except the last
device (device 30) for block number 3, and then the last device (device 30) for block number 3.
The 136-bit Search operation is pipelined and executes as follows. Four cycles from the Search command, each of the devices
knows the outcome internal to it for that operation. In the fifth cycle after the Search command, the devices in a block arbitrate
for a winner from among them (a “block” being less than or equal to eight devices resolving the winner by using LHI[6:0] and
LHO[1:0] signalling mechanisms). In the sixth cycle after the Search command, the blocks of devices resolve the winning block
through the BHI[2:0] and BHO[2:0] signalling mechanisms. The winning device in the winning block is the global winning device
for a Search operation.

Figure 13-43. Timing Diagram for Device Number 6 in Block Number 3
(Device Number 30 in Depth-Cascaded Table)
The following is the sequence of operation for a single 136-bit Search command (also refer to “Command and Command
Parameters,” Subsection 12.2 on page 19).
• Cycle A: The host ASIC drives CMDV high and applies Search command code (10) on CMD[1:0] signals. CMD[5:3] signals
must be driven with the index to the GMR pair for use in this Search operation. CMD[8:6] signals must be driven with the bits
that will be driven on SADR[21:19] by this device if it has a hit. DQ[67:0] must be driven with the 68-bit data ([135:68]) in order
to be compared against all even locations. The CMD[2] signal must be driven to logic 0.
• Cycle B: The host ASIC continues to drive CMDV high and to apply Search command code (10) on CMD[1:0]. CMD[5:2] must
be driven by the index of the comparand register pair for storing the 136-bit word presented on the DQ bus during cycles A
and B. CMD[8:6] signals must be driven with the index of the SSR that will be used for storing the address of the matching
Document #: 38-02042 Rev. *E

CYNSE70032
entry and the hit flag (see page 14 for the description of SSR[0:7]). The DQ[67:0] is driven with 68-bit data ([67:0])to be compared
against all odd locations.
A logical 136-bit Search operation is shown in Figure 13-44. The entire table made up of 31 devices and consisting of 136-bit
entries is compared against a 136-bit word K that is presented on the DQ bus (using the GMR and local mask bits) in cycles A
and B of the command. The GMR is the 136-bit word specified by the even and odd global mask pair selected by the GMR Index
in the command’s cycle A.
The 136-bit word K that is presented on the DQ bus in cycles A and B of the command is also stored in the even and odd
comparand registers specified by the Comparand Register Index in the command’s cycle B. In ×136 configurations, the even and
odd comparand registers can subsequently be used by the Learn command in the first non-full device only. Note. The Learn
command is supported for only one of the blocks consisting of up to eight devices in a depth-cascaded table of more than one
block. The word K that is presented on the DQ bus in cycles A and B of the command is compared with each entry in the table,
starting at location 0. The first matching entry’s location address L is the winning address that is driven as part of the SRAM
address on the SADR[21:0] lines (see Section 15.0, “SRAM Addressing” on page 98). The global winning device will drive the
bus in a specific cycle. In global miss cycles, the device with LRAM = 1 (the default driving device for the SRAM bus) and LDEV
= 1 (the default driving device for SSF and SSV signals) will be the default driver for such missed cycles. Note. During 136-bit
searches of 136-bit-configured tables, the Search hit will always be at an even address.

The Search command is a pipelined operation. It executes a Search at half the rate of the frequency of CLK2X for 136-bit searches
in ×136-configured tables. The latency of SADR, CE_L, ALE_L, WE_L, SSV, and SSF from the 136-bit Search command cycle
(two CLK2X cycles) is shown in Table 13-15.

The following is the sequence of operation for a single 136-bit Search command (also refer to Subsection 12.2, “Commands and
Command Parameters” on page 19).
• Cycle A: The host ASIC drives CMDV high and applies Search command code (10) on CMD[1:0] signals. CMD[5:3] signals
must be driven with the index to the GMR pair used for bits [271:136] of the data being searched. DQ[67:0] must be driven
with the 68-bit data ([271:204]) to be compared to all locations 0 in the four 68-bits-word page. The CMD[2] signal must be
driven to logic 1. Note. CMD[2] = 1 signals that the search is a x272-bit search. CMD[8:3] in this cycle is ignored.
Document #: 38-02042 Rev. *E
Page 69 of 126
CYNSE70032
• Cycle B: The host ASIC continues to drive CMDV high and continues to apply Search command code (10) on CMD[1:0]. The
DQ[67:0] is driven with the 68-bit data ([203:136]) to be compared to all locations 1 in the four 68-bits-word page.
• Cycle C: The host ASIC drives CMDV high and applies Search command code (10) on CMD[1:0] signals. CMD[5:3] signals
must be driven with the index to the GMR pair used for bits [135:0] of the data being searched. CMD[8:6] signals must be
driven with the bits that will be driven on SADR[21:19] by this device if it has a hit. DQ[67:0] must be driven with the 68-bit data
([135:68]) to be compared to all locations 2 in the four 68-bits-word page. The CMD[2] signal must be driven to logic 0.
• Cycle D: The host ASIC continues to drive the CMDV high and applies Search command code (10) on CMD[1:0]. CMD[8:6]
signals must be driven with the index of the SSR that will be used for storing the address of the matching entry and hit flag
(see page 14 for the description of SSR[0:7]). The DQ[67:0] is driven with the 68-bit data ([67:0]) to be compared to all locations
3 in the four 68-bits-word page. CMD[5:2] is ignored because the Learn instruction is not supported for x272 tables.
Note. For 272-bit searches, the host ASIC must supply four distinct 68-bit data words on DQ[67:0] during cycles A, B, C, and D.
The GMR index in cycle A selects a pair of GMRs that apply to DQ data in cycles A and B. The GMR index in cycle C selects a
pair of GMRs that apply to DQ data in cycles C and D.
The logical 272-bit Search operation is shown in Figure 13-47. The entire table of 272-bit entries is compared to a 272-bit word
K that is presented on the DQ bus in cycles A, B, C, and D of the command using the GMR and local mask bits. The GMR is the
272-bit word specified by the two pairs of GMRs selected by the GMR Indexes in the command’s cycles A and C. The 272-bit
word K that is presented on the DQ bus in cycles A, B, C, and D of the command is compared with each entry in the table starting
at location 0. The first matching entry’s location address L is the winning address that is driven as part of the SRAM address on
SADR[21:0] lines (see “SRAM Addressing” on page 98). Note. The matching address is always going to be location 0 in a
four-entry page for a 272-bit Search (two LSBs of the matching index will be 00).

272-bit Search on Tables Configured as ×272 and Using up to Eight CYNSE70032 Devices
The hardware diagram of the Search subsystem of eight devices is shown in Figure 13-48. The following are the parameters
programmed into the eight devices.
• First seven devices (devices 0–6): CFG = 10101010, TLSZ = 01, HLAT = 000, LRAM = 0, and LDEV = 0.
• Eighth device (device 7): CFG = 10101010, TLSZ = 01, HLAT = 000, LRAM = 1, and LDEV = 1.
Note. All eight devices must be programmed with the same value of TLSZ and HLAT. Only the last device in the table must be
programmed with LRAM = 1 and LDEV = 1 (device number 7 in this case). All other upstream devices must be programmed with
LRAM = 0 and LDEV = 0 (devices 0 through 6 in this case).
Figure 13-49 shows the timing diagram for a Search command in the 272-bit-configured table of eight devices for device
number 0. Figure 13-50 shows the timing diagram for a Search command in the 272-bit-configured table of eight devices for
device number 1. Figure 13-51 shows the timing diagram for a Search command in the 272-bit-configured table of eight devices
for device number 7 (the last device in this specific table). For these timing diagrams, three 272-bit searches are performed
sequentially. The following Hit/Miss assumptions were made, as shown in Table 13-19.

The following is the sequence of operation for a single 272-bit Search command (also see “Commands and Command Parameters” on page 19).
• Cycle A: The host ASIC drives CMDV high and applies Search command code (10) on CMD[1:0] signals. CMD[5:3] signals
must be driven with the index to the GMR pair used for bits [271:136] of the data being searched in this operation. DQ[67:0]
must be driven with the 68-bit data ([271:204]) to be compared against all locations 0 in the four-word 68-bit page. The CMD[2]
signal must be driven to logic 1. Note. CMD[2] = 1 signals that the search is a x272 bit search. CMD[8:3] in this cycle is ignored.
• Cycle B: The host ASIC continues to drive CMDV high and applies Search command code (10) on CMD[1:0]. The DQ[67:0]
is driven with the 68-bit data ([203:136]) to be compared against all locations 1 in the four 68-bits-word page.
• Cycle C: The host ASIC drives CMDV high and applies Search command code (10) on CMD[1:0] signals. CMD[5:3] signals
must be driven with the index to the GMR pair used for bits [135:0] of the data being searched. CMD[8:6] signals must be
driven with the bits that will be driven on SADR[21:19] by this device if it has a hit. DQ[67:0] must be driven with the 68-bit data
([135:68]) to be compared against all locations 2 in the four 68-bits-word page. The CMD[2] signal must be driven to logic 0.
• Cycle D: The host ASIC continues to drive CMDV high and applies Search command code (10) on CMD[1:0]. CMD[8:6] signals
must be driven with the index of the SSR that will be used for storing the address of the matching entry and the hit flag (see
page 14 for the description of SSR[0:7]). The DQ[67:0] is driven with the 68-bit data ([67:0]) to be compared to all locations 3
in the four 68-bits-word page. CMD[5:2] is ignored because the Learn instruction is not supported for ×272 tables.
Note. For 272-bit searches, the host ASIC must supply four distinct 68-bit data words on DQ[67:0] during cycles A, B, C, and D.
The GMR index in cycle A selects a pair of GMRs in each of the eight devices that apply to DQ data in cycles A and B. The GMR
index in cycle C selects a pair of GMRs in each of the eight devices that apply to DQ data in cycles C and D.

The logical 272-bit Search operation is shown in Figure 13-52. The entire table of 272-bit entries is compared to a 272-bit word
K that is presented on the DQ bus in cycles A, B, C, and D of the command using the GMR and the local mask bits. The GMR is
the 272-bit word specified by the two pairs of GMRs selected by the GMR Indexes in the command’s cycles A and C in each of
the eight devices. The 272-bit word K that is presented on the DQ bus in cycles A, B, C, and D of the command is compared to
each entry in the table starting at location 0. The first matching entry’s location address L is the winning address that is driven as
part of the SRAM address on the SADR[21:0] lines (see “SRAM Addressing” on page 98). Note. The matching address is always
going to be a location 0 in a four-entry page for 272-bit Search (two LSBs of the matching index will be 00).

The Search command is a pipelined operation and executes a Search at one-fourth the rate of the frequency of CLK2X for 272-bit
searches in ×272-configured tables. The latency of SADR, CE_L, ALE_L, WE_L, SSV, and SSF from the 272-bit Search
command (measured in CLK cycles) from the CLK2X cycle that contains the C and D cycles is shown in Table 13-20.

272-bit Search on Tables Configured as ×272 using up to 31 CYNSE70032 Devices
The hardware diagram of the search subsystem of 31 devices is shown in Figure 13-53. Each of the four blocks in the diagram
represents a block of eight CYNSE70032 devices, except the last which has seven devices. The diagram for a block of eight
devices is shown in Figure 13-54. The following are the parameters programmed into the 31 devices.
• First thirty devices (devices 0–29): CFG = 10101010, TLSZ = 10, HLAT = 000, LRAM = 0, and LDEV = 0.
• Thirty-first device (device 30): CFG = 10101010, TLSZ = 10, HLAT = 000, LRAM = 1, and LDEV = 1.
Document #: 38-02042 Rev. *E
Page 76 of 126
CYNSE70032
Note. All 31 devices must be programmed with the same value of TLSZ and HLAT. Only the last device in the table must be
programmed with LRAM = 1 and LDEV = 1 (device number 30 in this case). All other upstream devices must be programmed
with LRAM = 0 and LDEV = 0 (devices 0 through 29 in this case).
The timing diagrams referred to in this paragraph reference the HIT/MISS assumptions defined in Table 13-22. For the purpose
of illustrating the timings, it is further assumed that there is only one device with the matching entry in each block. Figure 13-55
shows the timing diagram for a Search command in the 272-bit-configured table consisting of 31 devices for each of the eight
devices in block number 0. Figure 13-56 shows the timing diagram for a Search command in the 272-bit-configured table of 31
devices for all devices above the winning device in block number 1. Figure 13-57 shows the timing diagram for the globally winning
device (the final winner within its own and all blocks) in block number 1. Figure 13-58 shows the timing diagram for all the devices
below the globally winning device in block number 1. Figure 13-59, Figure 13-60, and Figure 13-61, respectively, show the timing
diagrams of the devices above the globally winning device, the globally winning device, and the devices below the globally winning
device for block number 2. Figure 13-62, Figure 13-63, Figure 13-64, and Figure 13-65, respectively, show the timing diagrams
of the device above the globally winning device, the globally winning device, the devices below the globally winning device (except
device 30), and last device (device 30) for block number 3.
The 272-bit Search operation is pipelined and executes as follows. Four cycles from the last cycle of the Search command each
of the devices knows the outcome internal to it for that operation. In the fifth cycle from the Search command, the devices in a
block (less than or equal to eight devices resolving the winner within them using an LHI[6:0] and LHO[1:0] signalling mechanism)
arbitrate for a winner. In the sixth cycle after the Search command, the blocks of devices resolve the winning block through a
BHI[2:0] and BHO[2:0] signalling mechanism. The winning device within the winning block is the global winning device for the
Search operation.

The following is the sequence of operation for a single 272-bit Search command (also refer to Subsection 12.2, “Commands and
Command Parameters” on page 19).
• Cycle A: The host ASIC drives CMDV high and applies Search command code (10) on CMD[1:0] signals. CMD[5:3] signals
must be driven with the index to the GMR pair used for bits[271:136] of the data being searched. DQ[67:0] must be driven with
the 68-bit data ([271:204]) to be compared to all locations 0 in the four 68-bits-word page. The CMD[2] signal must be driven
to logic 1. Note. CMD[2] = 1 signals that the search is a x272-bit Search. CMD[8:6] is ignored in this cycle.
• Cycle B: The host ASIC continues to drive CMDV high and applies Search command (10) on CMD[1:0]. The DQ[67:0] is
driven with the 68-bit data ([203:136]) to be compared to all locations 1 in the four 68-bits-word page.
• Cycle C: The host ASIC drives CMDV high and applies Search command code (10) on CMD[1:0] signals. CMD[5:3] signals
must be driven with the index to the GMR pair used for the bits [135:0] of the data being searched. CMD[8:6] signals must be
driven with the bits that will be driven by this device on SADR[21:19] if it has a hit. DQ[67:0] must be driven with the 68-bit data
([135:68]) to be compared to all locations 2 in the four 68-bits-word page. The CMD[2] signal must be driven to logic 0.
Document #: 38-02042 Rev. *E
Page 89 of 126
CYNSE70032
• Cycle D: The host ASIC continues to drive CMDV high and to apply Search command code (10) on CMD[1:0]. CMD[8:6]
signals must be driven with the index of the SSR that will be used for storing the address of the matching entry and the hit flag
(see page 14 for a description of SSR[0:7]). The DQ[67:0] is driven with the 68-bit data ([67:0]) to be compared to all locations 3
in the four 68-bits-word page. CMD[5:2] is ignored because the Learn instruction is not supported for ×272 tables.
Note. For 272-bit searches, the host ASIC must supply four distinct 68-bit data words on DQ[67:0] during cycles A, B, C, and D.
The GMR Index in cycle A selects a pair of GMRs in each of the 31 devices that apply to DQ data in cycles A and B. The GMR
Index in cycle C selects a pair of GMRs in each of the 31 devices that apply to DQ data in cycles C and D.
The logical 272-bit Search operation is as shown in Figure 13-66. The entire table of 272-bit entries is compared to a 272-bit word
K that is presented on the DQ bus in cycles A, B, C, and D of the command using the GMR and local mask bits. The GMR is the
272-bit word specified by the two pairs of GMRs selected by the GMR Indexes in the command’s cycles A and C in each of the
31 devices. The 272-bit word K that is presented on the DQ bus in cycles A, B, C, and D of the command is compared to each
entry in the table starting at location 0. The first matching entry’s location address L is the winning address that is driven as part
of the SRAM address on the SADR[21:0] lines (see “SRAM Addressing” on page 98). Note. The matching address is always going
to be location 0 in a four-entry page for 272-bit search (two LSBs of the matching index will be 00).

The Search command is a pipelined operation that executes a Search at one-fourth the rate of the frequency of CLK2X for 272-bit
searches in ×272-configured tables. The latency of SADR, CE_L, ALE_L, WE_L, SSV, and SSF from the 272-bit Search

Mixed-Size Searches on Tables Configured with Different Widths Using an CYNSE70032 Device
This subsection will cover mixed searches (×68, ×136, and ×272) with tables of different widths (×68, ×136, ×272). The sample
operation shown is for a single device with CFG = 10010000 containing three tables of ×68, ×136, and ×272 widths. The operation
can be generalized to a block of 8–31 devices using four blocks; the timing and the pipeline operation is the same as described
previously for fixed searches on a table of one-width-size.
Figure 13-67 shows three sequential searches: first, a 68-bit Search on the table configured as ×68, then a 136-bit search on a
table configured as ×136, and finally a 272-bit search on the table configured as ×272 bits. Each results in a hit. Note. The
DQ[67:66] will be 00 in each of the two A and B cycles of the ×68-bit Search (Search1). DQ[67:66] is 01 in each of the A and B
cycles of the ×136-bit Search (Search2). DQ[67:66] is 10 in each of the A, B, C, and D cycles of the ×272-bit Search (Search3).
By having table designation bits, the CYNSE70032 device enables the creation of many tables of different widths in a bank of
search engines.
Figure 13-68 shows the sample table. Two bits in each 68-bit entry need to designated as table number bits. One example choice
might be: the 00 values for the table configured as ×68, 01 values for tables configured as ×136, and 10 values for tables
configured as ×272. For the above explanation, it is further assumed that bits[67:66] for each entry will be designed as such table
designation bits.

LRAM and LDEV Description
When search engines are cascaded using multiple CYNSE70032 devices, the SADR, CE_L, and WE_L (three-state signals) are
all tied together. To eliminate external pull-up and pull downs, one device in a bank is designated as the default driver. For
non-Search or non-Learn cycles (see Subsection 13.12, “Learn Command” on page 92) or Search cycles with a global miss, the
SADR, CE_L, and WE_L signals are driven by the device with the LRAM bit set. It is important that only one device in a bank of
cascaded search engines have this bit set. Failure to do so will cause contention on SADR, CE_L, and WE_L, and can potentially
cause damage to the device(s).
Similarly, when search engines using multiple CYNSE70032 devices are cascaded, SSF and SSV (also three-state signals) are
tied together. To eliminate external pull-up and pull downs, one device in a bank is designated as the default driver. For nonSearch
cycles or Search cycles with a global miss, the SSF and SSV signals are driven by the device with the LDEV bit set. It is important
that only one device in a bank of cascaded search engines have this bit set. Failure to do so will cause contention on SSV and
SSF and can potentially cause damage to the device(s).
13.12
Learn Command
Bit[0] of each 68-bit data location specifies whether an entry in the database is occupied. If all the entries in a device are occupied,
the device asserts FULO signal to inform the downstream devices that it is full. The result of this communication between
depth-cascaded devices determines the global FULL signal for the entire table. The FULL signal in the last device determines
the fullness of the depth-cascaded table.
The device contains sixteen pairs of internal, 68-bit-wide comparand registers that store the comparands as the device executes
searches. On a miss by the Search (signalled to ASIC through the SSV and SSF signals [SSV = 1, SSF = 0]), the host ASIC can
apply the Learn command to Learn the entry from a comparand register to the next-free location (see Subsection 9.3, “NFA
Register” on page 16). The NFA updates to the next-free location following each Write or Learn command.
In a depth-cascaded table, only a single device will Learn the entry through the application of a Learn instruction. The determination of the Learn device is based on the FULI and FULO signalling between the devices. The first non-full device learns the
entry by storing the contents of the specified comparand registers to the location(s) pointed to by NFA.
In a ×68-configured table the Learn command writes a single 68-bit location. In a ×136-configured table the Learn command
writes the next even and odd 68-bit locations. In 136-bit mode, bit[0] of the even and odd 68-bit locations is 0, indicating that they
are cascaded empty, or 1, which indicates that they are occupied.
The global FULL signal indicates to the table controller (the host ASIC) that all entries within a block are occupied and that no
more entries can be learned. The CYNSE70032 device updates the signal to a data array after each Write or Learn command.
Also using the NFA register as part of the SRAM address, the Learn command generates a Write cycle to the external SRAM
(see Section 15.0, “SRAM Addressing” on page 98).
The Learn command is supported on a single block containing up to eight devices if the table is configured as either a ×68 or a
×136. The Learn command is not supported for ×272-configured tables.
Learn is a pipelined operation and lasts for two CLK cycles where TLSZ = 00, as shown in Figure 13-69, and TLSZ = 01 as shown
in Figure 13-70 and Figure 13-71. Figure 13-70 and Figure 13-71 assume that the device performing the Learn operation is not
the last device in the table and has its LRAM bit set to 0. Note. The OE_L for the device with the LRAM bit set goes high for two
cycles for each Learn (one during the SRAM Write cycle, and one during the cycle before it). The latency of the SRAM Write cycle
from the second cycle of the instruction is shown in Table 13-25.

The Learn operation lasts two CLK cycles. The sequence of operation is as follows.
• Cycle 1A: The host ASIC applies the Learn instruction on CMD[1:0] using CMDV = 1. The CMD[5:2] field specifies the index
of the comparand register pair that will be written to the data array in the 136-bit-configured table. For a Learn in a 68-bit-configured table, the even-numbered comparand specified by this index will be written. CMD[8:6] carries the bits that will be driven
on SADR[21:19] in the SRAM Write cycle.
• Cycle 1B: The host ASIC continues to drive CMDV to 1, CMD[1:0] to 11, and CMD[5:2] with the comparand pair index. CMD[6]
must be set to 0 if the Learn is being performed on a 68-bit-configured table, and to 1 if the Learn is being performed on a
136-bit-configured table.
• Cycle 2: The host ASIC drives CMDV to 0.
Document #: 38-02042 Rev. *E
Page 95 of 126
CYNSE70032
At the end of cycle 2, a new instruction can begin. SRAM Write latency is the same as the Search to the SRAM read cycle (it is
measured from the second cycle of the Learn instruction).
14.0
Depth-Cascading
The search engine application can depth-cascade the devices to various table sizes of different widths (68 bits, 136 bits, or 272
bits). The devices perform all the necessary arbitration to decide which device will drive the SRAM bus. Search latency increases
as table size increases; the Search rate itself remains constant.
14.1
Depth-Cascading up to Eight Devices (One Block)
Figure 14-1 shows how up to eight devices can be cascaded to form 256K × 68-bit, 128K × 136-bit, or 64K × 272-bit tables. It
also shows the interconnection between devices for depth-cascading. Each search engine asserts LHO[1] and LHO[0] signals
to inform downstream devices of its results. The LHI[6:0] signals for a device are connected to LHO signals of the upstream
devices. The host ASIC must program the TLSZ to 01 for each of up to eight devices in a block. A single device alone drives the
SRAM bus in any single cycle.

Depth-Cascading up to 31 Devices (Four Blocks)
Figure 14-2 shows how to cascade up to four blocks. Each block except the last contains up to eight CYNSE70032 devices. The
interconnection within each has been shown in the previous subsection with the cascading of up to eight devices in a block. Note.
The interconnection between blocks for depth-cascading is important. For each Search, a block asserts BHO[2], BHO[1], and
BHO[0]. The BHO[2:0] signals for a block are taken only from the last device in the block. For all other devices within that block,
these signals stay open and floating. The host ASIC must program the TLSZ field to 10 in each of the devices for cascading up
to 31 devices (in up to four blocks).

Depth-Cascading for a FULL Signal
Bit[0] of each of the 68-bit entries is designated as a special bit (1 = occupied; 0 = empty). For each Learn or PIO Write to the
data array, each device asserts FULO[1] and FULO[0] if it does not have any empty locations within it (see Figure 14-3). Each
device combines the FULO signals from the devices above it with its own full status to generate a FULL signal, which will then
give a full status of the table up to the device asserting the FULL signal. Figure 14-3 shows the hardware connection diagram for
generating the FULL signal that goes back to the ASIC. In a depth-cascaded block of up to eight devices, the FULL signal from
the last device should be fed back to the ASIC controller to indicate the fullness of the table. The FULL signal of the other devices
should be left open. Note. The Learn instruction is supported for up to eight devices, whereas FULL cascading is allowed for one
block in tables containing more than eight devices. In tables for which a Learn instruction will not be used, the bit[0] of each 68-bit
entry should always be set to 1.

SRAM Addressing
Table 15-1 describes the commands used to generate addresses on the SRAM address bus. The index[13:0] field contains the
address of a 68-bit entry that results in a hit in 68-bit-configured partition. It is the address of the 68-bit entry that lies at the 136-bit
page, and the 272-bit page boundaries in 136-bit- and 272-bit-configured quadrants, respectively.
Section 7.0, “Registers” on page 13 of this specification, describes the NFA and SSR registers. ADR[13:0] contains the address
supplied on the DQ bus during PIO access to the CYNSE70032. Command bits 8, and 7 {CMD[8:6]} are passed from the
command to the SRAM address bus. See Section 12.0, “Commands” on page 18, for more information. ID[4:0] is the ID of the
device driving the SRAM bus (see Section 21.0, “Pinout Descriptions and Package Diagrams” on page 120, for more information).

SRAM PIO Access
The remainder of Section 15.0 describes SRAM Read and SRAM Write operations.
SRAM Read enables Read access to the off-chip SRAM that contains associative data. The latency from the issuance of the
Read instruction to the address appearing on the SRAM bus is the same as the latency of the Search instruction, and will depend
on the value programmed for the TLSZ parameter in the device configuration register. The latency of the ACK from the Read
instruction is the same as the latency of the Search instruction to the SRAM address plus the HLAT programmed into the
configuration register. Note. SRAM Read is a blocking operation—no new instruction can begin until the ACK is returned by the
selected device performing the access.
SRAM Write enables Write access to the off-chip SRAM containing associative data. The latency from the second cycle of the
Write instruction to the address appearing on the SRAM bus is the same as the latency of the Search instruction, and will depend
on the TLSZ value parameter programmed into the device configuration register. Note. SRAM Write is a pipelined operation—new
instruction can begin right after the previous command has ended.
15.3
SRAM Read with a Table of One Device
SRAM Read enables Read access to the off-chip SRAM that contains associative data. The latency from the issuance of the
Read instruction to the address appearing on the SRAM bus is the same as the latency of the Search instruction and will depend
on the TLSZ value parameter programmed into the device configuration register. The latency of the ACK from the Read instruction
is the same as the latency of the Search instruction to the SRAM address plus the HLAT programmed into the configuration
register. The following explains the SRAM Read operation in a table with only one device and having the following parameters:
TLSZ = 00, HLAT = 000, LRAM = 1, and LDEV = 1. Figure 15-1 shows the associated timing diagram. For the following
description, the selected device refers only to the device in the table because it is the only device to be accessed.
• Cycle 1A: The host ASIC applies the Read instruction on CMD[1:0] using CMDV = 1. The DQ bus supplies the address, with
DQ[20:19] set to 10, to select the SRAM address. The host ASIC selects the device for which the ID[4:0] matches the DQ[25:21]
lines. During this cycle, the host ASIC also supplies SADR[21:19] on CMD[8:6].
• Cycle 1B: The host ASIC continues to apply the Read instruction on CMD[1:0] using CMDV = 1. The DQ bus supplies the
address with DQ[20:19] set to 10 to select the SRAM address.
• Cycle 2: The host ASIC floats DQ[67:0] to a three-state condition.
• Cycle 3: The host ASIC keeps DQ[67:0] in a three-state condition.
• Cycle 4: The selected device starts to drive DQ[67:0] and drives ACK from High-Z to LOW.
• Cycle 5: The selected device drives the Read address on SADR[21:0]; it also drives ACK HIGH, CE_L LOW, and ALE_L LOW.
• Cycle 6: The selected device drives CE_L HIGH, ALE_L HIGH, the SADR bus, the DQ bus in a three-state condition, and
ACK LOW.
At the end of cycle 6, the selected device floats ACK in a three-state condition, and a new command can begin.

SRAM Read with a Table of up to Eight Devices
The following explains the SRAM Read operation completed through a table of up to eight devices using the following parameter:
TLSZ = 01. Figure 15-2 diagrams a block of eight devices. The following assumes that SRAM access is successfully achieved
through CYNSE70032 device number 0. Figure 15-3 and Figure 15-4 show timing diagrams for device number 0 and device
number 7, respectively.
• Cycle 1A: The host ASIC applies the Read instruction on CMD[1:0] using CMDV = 1. The DQ bus supplies the address, with
DQ[20:19] set to 10, to select the SRAM address. The host ASIC selects the device for which ID[4:0] matches the DQ[25:21]
lines. During this cycle the host ASIC also supplies SADR[21:19] on CMD[8:6].
• Cycle 1B: The host ASIC continues to apply the Read instruction on CMD[1:0] using CMDV = 1. The DQ bus supplies the
address, with DQ[20:19] set to 10 to select the SRAM address.
• Cycle 2: The host ASIC floats DQ[67:0] to a three-state condition.
• Cycle 3: The host ASIC keeps DQ[67:0] in a three-state condition.
• Cycle 4: The selected device starts to drive DQ[67:0].
• Cycle 5: The selected device continues to drive DQ[67:0] and drives ACK from high-Z to low.
• Cycle 6: The selected device drives the Read address on SADR[21:0]. It also drives ACK high, CE_L low, WE_L high, and
ALE_L low.
• Cycle 7: The selected device drives CE_L, ALE_L, WE_L, and DQ bus in a three-state condition. It continues to drive ACK low.
At the end of cycle 7, the selected device floats ACK in a three-state condition, and a new command can begin.

SRAM Read with a Table of up to 31 Devices
The following explains the SRAM Read operation accomplished through a table of up to 31 devices using the following parameters: TLSZ = 10. The diagram of this table is shown in Figure 15-5. The following assumes that SRAM access is being accomplished through CYNSE70032 device number 0 and that device number 0 is the selected device. Figure 15-6 and Figure 15-7
show the timing diagrams for device number 0 and device number 30, respectively.
• Cycle 1A: The host ASIC applies the Read instruction to CMD[1:0] using CMDV = 1. The DQ bus supplies the address, with
DQ[20:19] set to 10, to select the SRAM address. The host ASIC selects the device for which the ID[4:0] matches the DQ[25:21]
lines. During this cycle, the host ASIC also supplies SADR[21:19] on CMD[8:6].

SRAM Write with a Table of One Device
SRAM Write enables write access to the off-chip SRAM that contains associative data. The latency from the second cycle of the
Write instruction to the address appearing on the SRAM bus is the same as the latency of the Search instruction, and will depend
on the TLSZ value parameter programmed into the device configuration register. The following explains the SRAM Write operation
accomplished through a table of only one device with the following parameters: TLSZ = 00, HLAT = 000, LRAM = 1, and
LDEV = 1. Figure 15-8 shows the timing diagram. For the following description, the selected device refers to the only device in
the table as this is the only device that will be accessed.
• Cycle 1A: The host ASIC applies the Write instruction on CMD[1:0] using CMDV = 1. The DQ bus supplies the address, with
DQ[20:19] set to 10, to select the SRAM address. The host ASIC selects the device for which the ID[4:0] matches the DQ[25:21]
lines. The host ASIC also supplies SADR[21:19] on CMD[8:6] in this cycle. Note. CMD[2] must be set to 0 for SRAM Write,
because burst Writes into the SRAM are not supported.
• Cycle 1B: The host ASIC continues to apply the Write instruction on CMD[1:0] using CMDV = 1. The DQ bus supplies the
address, with DQ[20:19] set to 10, to select the SRAM address. Note. CMD[2] must be set to 0 for SRAM Write, because burst
Writes into the SRAM are not supported.
• Cycle 2: The host ASIC continues to drive DQ[67:0]. The data in this cycle is not used by the CYNSE70032.
• Cycle 3: The host ASIC continues to drive DQ[67:0]. The data in this cycle is not used by the CYNSE70032.
At the end of cycle 3, a new command can begin. The write is a pipelined operation; however, the Write cycle appears at the
SRAM bus with the same latency as the Search instruction (as measured from the second cycle of the Write command).

SRAM Write with a Table of up to Eight Devices
The following explains the SRAM Write operation done via a table(s) of up to eight devices with the following parameters:
TLSZ = 01. The diagram of this table is shown in Figure 15-9. The following assumes that SRAM access is getting done through
CYNSE70032 device number 0. Figure 15-10 and Figure 15-11 show the timing diagram for the device number 0 and device
number 7, respectively.
• Cycle 1A: The host ASIC applies the Write instruction on CMD[1:0] using CMDV = 1. The DQ bus supplies the address, with
DQ[20:19] set to 10, to select the SRAM address. The host ASIC selects the device for which the ID[4:0] matches the DQ[25:21]
lines. The host ASIC also supplies SADR[21:19] on CMD[8:6] in this cycle. Note. CMD[2] must be set to 0 for SRAM Write,
because burst Writes into the SRAM are not supported.
• Cycle 1B: The host ASIC continues to apply the Write instruction on CMD[1:0] using CMDV = 1. The DQ bus supplies the
address, with DQ[20:19] set to 10, to select the SRAM address. Note. CMD[2] must be set to 0 for SRAM Write, because burst
Writes into the SRAM are not supported.
• Cycle 2: The host ASIC continues to drive DQ[67:0]. The data in this cycle is not used by the CYNSE70032.
• Cycle 3: The host ASIC continues to drive DQ[67:0]. The data in this cycle is not used by the CYNSE70032.
At the end of cycle 3, a new command can begin. The Write is a pipelined operation; however, the Write cycle appears at the
SRAM bus with the same latency as the Search instruction (as measured from the second cycle of the Write command).

SRAM Write with Table(s) Consisting of up to 31 Devices
The following explains the SRAM Write operation done via a table(s) of up to 31 devices and with the following parameters:
TLSZ = 10. The diagram of this table(s) is shown in Figure 15-12. The following assumes that SRAM access is accomplished
through CYNSE70032 device number 0 (the selected device). Figure 15-13 and Figure 15-14 show the timing diagram for device
number 0 and device number 30, respectively.
• Cycle 1A: The host ASIC applies the Write instruction on CMD[1:0] using CMDV = 1. The DQ bus supplies the address, with
DQ[20:19] set to 10, to select the SRAM address. The host ASIC selects the device for which ID[4:0] matches the DQ[25:21]
lines. The host ASIC also supplies SADR[21:19] on CMD[8:6] in this cycle. Note. CMD[2] must be set to 0 for SRAM Write,
because burst Writes into the SRAM are not supported.
• Cycle 1B: The host ASIC continues to apply the Write instruction on CMD[1:0] using CMDV = 1. The DQ bus supplies the
address, with DQ[20:19] set to 10, to select the SRAM address. Note. CMD[2] must be set to 0 for SRAM Write, because burst
WriteS into the SRAM are not supported.
• Cycle 2: The host ASIC continues to drive DQ[67:0]. The data in this cycle is not used by the CYNSE70032.
• Cycle 3: The host ASIC continues to drive DQ[67:0]. The data in this cycle is not used by the CYNSE70032.
At the end of cycle 3, a new command can begin. The Write is a pipelined operation; however, the Write cycle appears at the
SRAM bus with the same latency as the Search instruction (as measured from the second cycle of the Write command).

The Proper Power-up Sequence
Proper power-up sequence is required to correctly initialize the Cypress Network Search Engines before functional access to the
device can begin. RST_L and TRST_L should be held low before the power supplies ramp-up. RST_L must be set low for a
duration of time afterward and then set high. The following steps describe the proper power-up sequence.
1. Set RST_L and TRST_L low.
2. Power up VDD, VDDQ and start running CLK2X and PHS_L. The order in which these signals (including VDD and VDDQ) are
applied is not critical.
3. Hold RST_L low for a minimum of 64 CLK2X cycles. The counting starts on the first rising edge of CLK2X when PHS_L is
high, after both VDD and VDDQ have reached their steady state voltages. Set RST_L high afterward to complete the power-up
sequence. For JTAG reset, TRST_L can be brought high after both VDD and VDDQ have reached their steady state voltages.
Figure 16-1 illustrates the proper sequences of the power-up operation.

Application
Figure 17-1 shows how a search engine subsystem can be formed using a host ASIC and Cypress’s CYNSE70032 bank. It also
shows how this search engine subsystem is integrated in a switch or router. The CYNSE70032 can access synchronous as well
as asynchronous SRAMs by allowing the host ASIC to set the same HLAT parameter in the all search engines within a bank of
search engines.

JTAG (1149.1) Testing
The CYNSE70032 supports the Test Access Port (TAP) and Boundary Scan Architecture, as specified in the IEEE JTAG standard
1149.1. The pin interface to the chip consists of five signals with the standard definitions: TCK, TMS, TDI, TDO, and TRST_L.
Table 18-1 describes the operations that the test access port controller supports, and Table 18-2 describes the TAP Device ID
Register. Note. To disable JTAG functionality, connect the TCK, TMS and TDI pins to VDDQ through a pull-up, and TRST_L to
ground through a pull-down.

Description
Sample/Preload. This operation loads the values of signals going to and from I/O
pins into the boundary scan shift register to provide a snapshot of the normal
functional operation, and to initialize the boundary scan.
External Test. This operation uses boundary scan values shifted in from TAP to
test connectivity external to the device.
This operation loads a single bit shift register between TDI and TDO and
provides a minimum-length serial path when no test operation is required.
This operation selects the Identification register between TDI and TDO and
allows the “idcode” to be read serially through TDO.
This operation drives preset values onto the outputs of devices.
This operation leaves the device output pins in a high impedance state.
