IDT70V261S/L
High-Speed 16K x 16 Dual-Port Static RAM with Interrupt
Industrial and Commercial Temperature Ranges
Description
The IDT70V261 is a high-speed 16K x 16 Dual-Port Static RAM. The
IDT70V261 is designed to be used as a stand-alone 256K-bit Dual-Port
RAM or as a combination MASTER/SLAVE Dual-Port RAM for 32-bit-ormore word systems. Using the IDT MASTER/SLAVE Dual-Port RAM
approach in 32-bit or wider memory system applications results in fullspeed, error-free operation without the need for additional discrete logic.
This device provides two independent ports with separate control,
address, and I/O pins that permit independent, asynchronous access for
reads or writes to any location in memory. An automatic power down
feature controlled by CE permits the on-chip circuitry of each port to enter
a very low standby power mode.
Fabricated using IDT’s CMOS high-performance technology, these
devices typically operate on only 300mW of power.
The IDT70V261 is packaged in a 100-pin Thin Quad Flatpack.

NOTES:
1. Transition is measured 0mV from Low- or High-impedance voltage with Output Test Load (Figure 2).
2. This parameter is guaranteed by device characterization, but is not production tested.
3. To access RAM, CE = VIL and SEM = VIH. To access semaphore, CE = VIH and SEM = VIL. Either condition must be valid for the entire tEW time.
4. The specification for tDH must be met by the device supplying write data to the RAM under all operating conditions. Although tDH and tOW values will vary over voltage and
temperature, the actual tDH will always be smaller than the actual tOW.
5. 'X' in part number indicates power rating (S or L).

2. A write occurs during the overlap (tEW or t WP) of a LOW CE and a LOW R/W for memory array writing cycle.
3. tWR is measured from the earlier of CE or R/W (or SEM or R/W) going HIGH to the end of write cycle.
4. During this period, the I/O pins are in the output state and input signals must not be applied.
5. If the CE or SEM LOW transition occurs simultaneously with or after the R/W LOW transition, the outputs remain in the High-impedance state.
6. Timing depends on which enable signal is asserted last, CE or R/W.
7. This parameter is guaranteed by device characterization, but is not production tested. Transition is measured 0mV from steady state with the Output Test Load
(Figure 2).
8. If OE is LOW during R/W controlled write cycle, the write pulse width must be the larger of tWP or (tWZ + tDW ) to allow the I/O drivers to turn off and data to be placed on the
bus for the required tDW . If OE is HIGH during an R/W controlled write cycle, this requirement does not apply and the write pulse can be as short as the specified tWP .
9. To access RAM, CE = VIL and SEM = VIH. To access semaphore, CE = VIH and SEM = VIL. tEW must be met for either condition.

High-Speed 16K x 16 Dual-Port Static RAM with Interrupt
Industrial and Commercial Temperature Ranges
Functional Description
write operations can be prevented to a port by tying the BUSY pin for
that port LOW.
The BUSY outputs on the IDT70V261 RAM in master mode, are
push-pull type outputs and do not require pull up resistors to operate.
If these RAMs are being expanded in depth, then the BUSY indication
for the resulting array requires the use of an external AND gate.
The IDT70V261 provides two ports with separate control, address
and I/O pins that permit independent access for reads or writes to any
location in memory. The IDT70V261 has an automatic power down
feature controlled by CE. The CE controls on-chip power down circuitry
that permits the respective port to go into a standby mode when not
selected (CE HIGH). When a port is enabled, access to the entire
memory array is permitted.
Width Expansion with Busy Logic
Master/Slave Arrays
Interrupts
When expanding an IDT70V261 RAM array in width while using
BUSY logic, one master part is used to decide which side of the RAM
array will receive a BUSY indication, and to output that indication. Any
number of slaves to be addressed in the same address range as the
master use the BUSY signal as a write inhibit signal. Thus on the
IDT70V261 SRAM the BUSY pin is an output if the part is used as a
master (M/S pin = VIH), and the BUSY pin is an input if the part used
as a slave (M/S pin = VIL) as shown in Figure 3.
If two or more master parts were used when expanding in width, a
split decision could result with one master indicating BUSY on one side
of the array and another master indicating BUSY on one other side of
the array. This would inhibit the write operations from one port for part
of a word and inhibit the write operations from the other port for part of
the other word.
The BUSY arbitration, on a master, is based on the chip enable and
address signals only. It ignores whether an access is a read or write.
In a master/slave array, both address and chip enable must be valid
long enough for a BUSY flag to be output from the master before the
actual write pulse can be initiated with either the R/W signal or the byte
enables. Failure to observe this timing can result in a glitched internal
write inhibit signal and corrupted data in the slave.
If the user chooses the interrupt function, a memory location (mail
box or message center) is assigned to each port. The left port interrupt
flag (INTL) is asserted when the right port writes to memory location
3FFE (HEX), where a write is defined as CER = R/WR = VIL per Truth
Table III. The left port clears the interrupt through access of address
location 3FFE when CEL = OEL = VIL, R/W is a "don't care". Likewise,
the right port interrupt flag (INTR) is asserted when the left port writes
to memory location 3FFF (HEX) and to clear the interrupt flag (INTR),
the right port must read the memory location 3FFF. The message (8
bits) at 3FFE or 3FFF is user-defined since it is an addressable SRAM
location. If the interrupt function is not used, address locations 3FFE
and 3FFF are not used as mail boxes, but as part of the random access
memory. Refer to Truth Table III for the interrupt operation.
Busy Logic
Busy Logic provides a hardware indication that both ports of the
RAM have accessed the same location at the same time. It also allows
one of the two accesses to proceed and signals the other side that the
RAM is “busy”. The BUSY pin can then be used to stall the access until
the operation on the other side is completed. If a write operation has
been attempted from the side that receives a BUSY indication, the write
signal is gated internally to prevent the write from proceeding.
The use of BUSY logic is not required or desirable for all applications. In some cases it may be useful to logically OR the BUSY outputs
together and use any busy indication as an interrupt source to flag an
illegal or illogical operation. If the write inhibit function of BUSY logic
is not desirable, the BUSY logic can be disabled by placing the part in
slave mode with the M/S pin. Once in slave mode the BUSY pin
operates solely as a write inhibit input pin. Normal operation can be
programmed by tying the BUSY pins HIGH. If desired, unintended

Figure 3. Busy and chip enable routing for both width and depth expansion
with IDT70V261 RAMs.
The IDT70V261 is a fast Dual-Port 16K x 16 CMOS Static RAM with
an additional 8 address locations dedicated to binary semaphore flags.
These flags allow either processor on the left or right side of the DualPort SRAM to claim a privilege over the other processor for functions
defined by the system designer’s software. As an example, the
semaphore can be used by one processor to inhibit the other from
accessing a portion of the Dual-Port SRAM or any other shared
resource.
The Dual-Port SRAM features a fast access time, and both ports
are completely independent of each other. This means that the activity
on the left port in no way slows the access time of the right port. Both
ports are identical in function to standard CMOS Static RAM and can
be read from, or written to, at the same time with the only possible
conflict arising from the simultaneous writing of, or a simultaneous
READ/WRITE of, a non-semaphore location. Semaphores are protected against such ambiguous situations and may be used by the
system program to avoid any conflicts in the non-semaphore portion
of the Dual-Port RAM. These devices have an automatic power-down
feature controlled by CE, the Dual-Port SRAM enable, and SEM, the
semaphore enable. The CE and SEM pins control on-chip power down
circuitry that permits the respective port to go into standby mode when
not selected. This is the condition which is shown in Truth Table I where
CE and SEM are both HIGH.

High-Speed 16K x 16 Dual-Port Static RAM with Interrupt

Systems which can best use the IDT70V261 contain multiple
processors or controllers and are typically very high-speed systems
which are software controlled or software intensive. These systems
can benefit from a performance increase offered by the IDT70V261's
hardware semaphores, which provide a lockout mechanism without
requiring complex programming.
Software handshaking between processors offers the maximum in
system flexibility by permitting shared resources to be allocated in
varying configurations. The IDT70V261 does not use its semaphore
flags to control any resources through hardware, thus allowing the
system designer total flexibility in system architecture.
An advantage of using semaphores rather than the more common
methods of hardware arbitration is that wait states are never incurred
in either processor. This can prove to be a major advantage in very
high-speed systems.
How the Semaphore Flags Work
The semaphore logic is a set of eight latches which are independent of the Dual-Port SRAM. These latches can be used to pass a flag,
or token, from one port to the other to indicate that a shared resource
is in use. The semaphores provide a hardware assist for a use
assignment method called “Token Passing Allocation.” In this method,
the state of a semaphore latch is used as a token indicating that shared
resource is in use. If the left processor wants to use this resource, it
requests the token by setting the latch. This processor then verifies its
success in setting the latch by reading it. If it was successful, it
proceeds to assume control over the shared resource. If it was not
successful in setting the latch, it determines that the right side
processor has set the latch first, has the token and is using the shared
resource. The left processor can then either repeatedly request that
semaphore’s status or remove its request for that semaphore to
perform another task and occasionally attempt again to gain control of
the token via the set and test sequence. Once the right side has
relinquished the token, the left side should succeed in gaining control.
The semaphore flags are active LOW. A token is requested by
writing a zero into a semaphore latch and is released when the same
side writes a one to that latch.
The eight semaphore flags reside within the IDT70V261 in a
separate memory space from the Dual-Port SRAM. This address
space is accessed by placing a LOW input on the SEM pin (which acts
as a chip select for the semaphore flags) and using the other control
pins (Address, OE, and R/W) as they would be used in accessing a
standard Static RAM. Each of the flags has a unique address which
can be accessed by either side through address pins A0 – A2. When
accessing the semaphores, none of the other address pins has any
effect.
When writing to a semaphore, only data pin D0 is used. If a low level
is written into an unused semaphore location, that flag will be set to a
zero on that side and a one on the other side (see Truth Table V). That
semaphore can now only be modified by the side showing the zero.
When a one is written into the same location from the same side, the
flag will be set to a one for both sides (unless a semaphore request
from the other side is pending) and then can be written to by both sides.
The fact that the side which is able to write a zero into a semaphore
subsequently locks out writes from the other side is what makes
semaphore flags useful in interprocessor communications. (A thor-
ough discussion on the use of this feature follows shortly.) A zero
written into the same location from the other side will be stored in the
semaphore request latch for that side until the semaphore is freed by

the first side.
When a semaphore flag is read, its value is spread into all data bits
so that a flag that is a one reads as a one in all data bits and a flag
containing a zero reads as all zeros. The read value is latched into one
side’s output register when that side's semaphore select (SEM) and
output enable (OE) signals go active. This serves to disallow the
semaphore from changing state in the middle of a read cycle due to a
write cycle from the other side. Because of this latch, a repeated read
of a semaphore in a test loop must cause either signal (SEM or OE) to
go inactive or the output will never change.
A sequence WRITE/READ must be used by the semaphore in
order to guarantee that no system level contention will occur. A
processor requests access to shared resources by attempting to write
a zero into a semaphore location. If the semaphore is already in use,
the semaphore request latch will contain a zero, yet the semaphore
flag will appear as one, a fact which the processor will verify by the
subsequent read (see Truth Table V). As an example, assume a
processor writes a zero to the left port at a free semaphore location. On
a subsequent read, the processor will verify that it has written successfully to that location and will assume control over the resource in
question. Meanwhile, if a processor on the right side attempts to write
a zero to the same semaphore flag it will fail, as will be verified by the
fact that a one will be read from that semaphore on the right side during
subsequent read. Had a sequence of READ/WRITE been used
instead, system contention problems could have occurred during the
gap between the read and write cycles.
It is important to note that a failed semaphore request must be
followed by either repeated reads or by writing a one into the same
location. The reason for this is easily understood by looking at the
simple logic diagram of the semaphore flag in Figure 4. Two semaphore request latches feed into a semaphore flag. Whichever latch is
first to present a zero to the semaphore flag will force its side of the
semaphore flag low and the other side HIGH. This condition will
continue until a one is written to the same semaphore request latch.
Should the other side’s semaphore request latch have been written to
a zero in the meantime, the semaphore flag will flip over to the other
side as soon as a one is written into the first side’s request latch. The
second side’s flag will now stay LOW until its semaphore request latch
is written to a one. From this it is easy to understand that, if a
semaphore is requested and the processor which requested it no

longer needs the resource, the entire system can hang up until a one
is written into that semaphore request latch.
The critical case of semaphore timing is when both sides request
a single token by attempting to write a zero into it at the same time. The
semaphore logic is specially designed to resolve this problem. If
simultaneous requests are made, the logic guarantees that only one
side receives the token. If one side is earlier than the other in making
the request, the first side to make the request will receive the token. If
both requests arrive at the same time, the assignment will be arbitrarily
made to one port or the other.
One caution that should be noted when using semaphores is that
semaphores alone do not guarantee that access to a resource is
secure. As with any powerful programming technique, if semaphores
are misused or misinterpreted, a software error can easily happen.
Initialization of the semaphores is not automatic and must be
handled via the initialization program at power-up. Since any semaphore request flag which contains a zero must be reset to a one, all
semaphores on both sides should have a one written into them at
initialization from both sides to assure that they will be free when
needed.
Using Semaphores—Some Examples
Perhaps the simplest application of semaphores is their application as resource markers for the IDT70V261’s Dual-Port RAM. Say the
16K x 16 RAM was to be divided into two 8K x 16 blocks which were
to be dedicated at any one time to servicing either the left or right port.
Semaphore 0 could be used to indicate the side which would control
the lower section of memory, and Semaphore 1 could be defined as the
indicator for the upper section of memory.
To take a resource, in this example the lower 8K of Dual-Port RAM,
the processor on the left port could write and then read a zero in to
Semaphore 0. If this task were successfully completed (a zero was
read back rather than a one), the left processor would assume control
of the lower 8K. Meanwhile the right processor was attempting to gain
control of the resource after the left processor, it would read back a one
in response to the zero it had attempted to write into Semaphore 0. At
this point, the software could choose to try and gain control of the
second 8K section by writing, then reading a zero into Semaphore 1.
If it succeeded in gaining control, it would lock out the left side.
Once the left side was finished with its task, it would write a one to
Semaphore 0 and may then try to gain access to Semaphore 1. If
Semaphore 1 was still occupied by the right side, the left side could
undo its semaphore request and perform other tasks until it was able
to write, then read a zero into Semaphore 1. If the right processor
performs a similar task with Semaphore 0, this protocol would allow the
two processors to swap 8K blocks of Dual-Port RAM with each other.
The blocks do not have to be any particular size and can even be
variable, depending upon the complexity of the software using the
semaphore flags. All eight semaphores could be used to divide the
Dual-Port RAM or other shared resources into eight parts. Semaphores can even be assigned different meanings on different sides
rather than being given a common meaning as was shown in the
example above.
Semaphores are a useful form of arbitration in systems like disk
interfaces where the CPU must be locked out of a section of memory
during a transfer and the I/O device cannot tolerate any wait states.
With the use of semaphores, once the two devices has determined
which memory area was “off-limits” to the CPU, both the CPU and the
I/O devices could access their assigned portions of memory continuously without any wait states.
Semaphores are also useful in applications where no memory
“WAIT” state is available on one or both sides. Once a semaphore
handshake has been performed, both processors can access their
assigned RAM segments at full speed.
Another application is in the area of complex data structures. In this
case, block arbitration is very important. For this application one
processor may be responsible for building and updating a data
structure. The other processor then reads and interprets that data
structure. If the interpreting processor reads an incomplete data
structure, a major error condition may exist. Therefore, some sort of
arbitration must be used between the two different processors. The
building processor arbitrates for the block, locks it and then is able to
go in and update the data structure. When the update is completed, the
data structure block is released. This allows the interpreting processor
to come back and read the complete data structure, thereby guaranteeing a consistent data structure.
