Functional Description
The GS840Z18/36AT is a 4Mbit Synchronous Static SRAM.
GSI's NBT SRAMs, like ZBT, NtRAM, NoBL or other
pipelined read/double late write or flow through read/single
late write SRAMs, allow utilization of all available bus
bandwidth by eliminating the need to insert deselect cycles
when the device is switched from read to write cycles.
180 MHz–100 MHz
3.3 V VDD
2.5 V and 3.3 V VDDQ
Because it is a synchronous device, address, data inputs, and
read/ write control inputs are captured on the rising edge of the
input clock. Burst order control (LBO) must be tied to a power
rail for proper operation. Asynchronous inputs include the
sleep mode enable (ZZ) and Output Enable. Output Enable can
be used to override the synchronous control of the output
drivers and turn the RAM's output drivers off at any time.
Write cycles are internally self-timed and initiated by the rising
edge of the clock input. This feature eliminates complex offchip write pulse generation required by asynchronous SRAMs
and simplifies input signal timing.
The GS840Z18/36AT may be configured by the user to
operate in Pipeline or Flow Through mode. Operating as a
pipelined synchronous device, in addition to the rising-edgetriggered registers that capture input signals, the device
incorporates a rising-edge-triggered output register. For read
cycles, pipelined SRAM output data is temporarily stored by
the edge triggered output register during the access cycle and
then released to the output drivers at the next rising edge of
clock.
The GS840Z18/36AT is implemented with GSI's high
performance CMOS technology and is available in a JEDECstandard 100-pin TQFP package.

Functional Details
Clocking
Deassertion of the Clock Enable (CKE) input blocks the Clock input from reaching the RAM's internal circuits. It may be used to
suspend RAM operations. Failure to observe Clock Enable set-up or hold requirements will result in erratic operation.
Pipelined Mode Read and Write Operations
All inputs (with the exception of Output Enable, Linear Burst Order and Sleep) are synchronized to rising clock edges. Single cycle
read and write operations must be initiated with the Advance/Load pin (ADV) held low, in order to load the new address. Device
activation is accomplished by asserting all three of the Chip Enable inputs (E1, E2, and E3). Deassertion of any one of the Enable
inputs will deactivate the device.

Read operation is initiated when the following conditions are satisfied at the rising edge of clock: CKE is asserted low, all three
chip enables (E1, E2, and E3) are active, the write enable input signal W is deasserted high, and ADV is asserted low. The address
presented to the address inputs is latched in to address register and presented to the memory core and control logic. The control
logic determines that a read access is in progress and allows the requested data to propagate to the input of the output register. At
the next rising edge of clock the read data is allowed to propagate through the output register and onto the Output pins.
Write operation occurs when the RAM is selected, CKE is active and the write input is sampled low at the rising edge of clock. The
Byte Write Enable inputs (BA, BB, BC, and BD) determine which bytes will be written. All or none may be activated. A write cycle
with no Byte Write inputs active is a no-op cycle. The Pipelined NBT SRAM provides double late write functionality, matching the
write command versus data pipeline length (2 cycles) to the read command versus data pipeline length (2 cycles). At the first rising
edge of clock, Enable, Write, Byte Write(s), and Address are registered. The Data In associated with that address is required at the
third rising edge of clock.
Flow through Mode Read and Write Operations
Operation of the RAM in Flow Through mode is very similar to operations in Pipeline mode. Activation of a read cycle and the use
of the Burst Address Counter is identical. In Flow Through mode the device may begin driving out new data immediately after new
address are clocked into the RAM, rather than holding new data until the following (second) clock edge. Therefore, in Flow
Through mode the read pipeline is one cycle shorter than in Pipeline mode.
Write operations are initiated in the same way as well, but differ in that the write pipeline is one cycle shorter as well, preserving
the ability to turn the bus from reads to writes without inserting any dead cycles. While the pipelined NBT RAMs implement a
double late write protocol, in Flow Through mode a single late write protocol mode is observed. Therefore, in Flow Through mode,
address and control are registered on the first rising edge of clock and data in is required at the data input pins at the second rising
edge of clock.

Notes:
1. Continue Burst cycles, whether read or write, use the same control inputs. A Deselect continue cycle can only be entered into if a Deselect cycle is executed first.
2. Dummy Read and Write abort can be considered NOPs because the SRAM performs no operation. A Write abort occurs when the W
pin is sampled low but no Byte Write pins are active so no write operation is performed.
3. G can be wired low to minimize the number of control signals provided to the SRAM. Output drivers will automatically turn off during
write cycles.
4. If CKE High occurs during a pipelined read cycle, the DQ bus will remain active (Low Z). If CKE High occurs during a write cycle, the bus
will remain in High Z.
5. X = Don’t Care; H = Logic High; L = Logic Low; Bx = High = All Byte Write signals are high; Bx = Low = One or more Byte/Write
signals are Low
6. All inputs, except G and ZZ must meet setup and hold times of rising clock edge.
7. Wait states can be inserted by setting CKE high.
8. This device contains circuitry that ensures all outputs are in High Z during power-up.
9. A 2-bit burst counter is incorporated.
10. The address counter is incriminated for all Burst continue cycles.

Burst Cycles
Although NBT RAMs are designed to sustain 100% bus bandwidth by eliminating turnaround cycle when there is transition from
Read to Write, multiple back-to-back reads or writes may also be performed. NBT SRAMs provide an on-chip burst address
generator that can be utilized, if desired, to further simplify burst read or write implementations. The ADV control pin, when
driven high, commands the SRAM to advance the internal address counter and use the counter generated address to read or write
the SRAM. The starting address for the first cycle in a burst cycle series is loaded into the SRAM by driving the ADV pin low, into
Load mode.
Burst Order
The burst address counter wraps around to its initial state after four addresses (the loaded address and three more) have been
accessed. The burst sequence is determined by the state of the Linear Burst Order pin (LBO). When this pin is low, a linear burst
sequence is selected. When the RAM is installed with the LBO pin tied high, interleaved burst sequence is selected. See the tables
below for details.

Sleep Mode
During normal operation, ZZ must be pulled low, either by the user or by its internal pull-down resistor. When ZZ is pulled high,
the SRAM will enter a Power Sleep mode after 2 cycles. At this time, internal state of the SRAM is preserved. When ZZ returns to
low, the SRAM operates normally after 2 cycles of wake up time.
Sleep mode is a low current, power-down mode in which the device is deselected and current is reduced to ISB2. The duration of
Sleep Mode is dictated by the length of time the ZZ is in a high state. After entering Sleep mode, all inputs except ZZ become
disabled and all outputs go to High-Z The ZZ pin is an asynchronous, active high input that causes the device to enter Sleep mode.
When the ZZ pin is driven high, ISB2 is guaranteed after the time tZZI is met. Because ZZ is an asynchronous input, pending
operations or operations in progress may not be properly completed if ZZ is asserted. Therefore, Sleep mode must not be initiated
until valid pending operations are completed. Similarly, when exiting Sleep mode during tZZR, only a Deselect or Read commands
may be applied while the SRAM is recovering from Sleep mode.

Designing for Compatibility
The GSI NBT SRAMs offer users a configurable selection between Flow Through mode and Pipeline mode via the FT signal
found on Pin 14. Not all vendors offer this option, however, most mark Pin 14 as VDD or VDDQ on pipelined parts and VSS on flow
through parts. GSI NBT SRAMs are fully compatible with these sockets.
Pin 66, a No Connect (NC) on GSI’s GS840Z18/36A NBT SRAM, the Parity Error open drain output on GSI’s GS881Z18/36 NBT
SRAM, is often marked as a power pin on other vendor’s NBT-compatible SRAMs. Specifically, it is marked VDD or VDDQ on
pipelined parts and VSS on flow through parts. Users of GSI NBT devices who are not actually using the ByteSafe™ parity feature
may want to design the board site for the RAM with Pin 66 tied high through a 1k ohm resistor in Pipeline mode applications or
tied low in Flow Through mode applications in order to keep the option to use non-configurable devices open. By using the pull-up
resistor, rather than tying the pin to one of the power rails, users interested in upgrading to GSI’s ByteSafe NBT SRAMs
(GS881Z18/36), featuring Parity Error detection and JTAG Boundary Scan, will be ready for connection to the active low, open
drain Parity Error output driver at Pin 66 on GSI’s TQFP ByteSafe RAMs.
