Functional Description
Applications
The GS8160E18/32/36AT is a 18,874,368-bit (16,777,216-bit
for x32 version) high performance synchronous SRAM with a
2-bit burst address counter. Although of a type originally
developed for Level 2 Cache applications supporting high
performance CPUs, the device now finds application in
synchronous SRAM applications, ranging from DSP main
store to networking chip set support.
Controls
Addresses, data I/Os, chip enables (E1, E2, E3), address burst
control inputs (ADSP, ADSC, ADV), and write control inputs
(Bx, BW, GW) are synchronous and are controlled by a
positive-edge-triggered clock input (CK). Output enable (G)
and power down control (ZZ) are asynchronous inputs. Burst
cycles can be initiated with either ADSP or ADSC inputs. In
Burst mode, subsequent burst addresses are generated
internally and are controlled by ADV
. The burst address
counter may be configured to count in either linear or
interleave order with the Linear Burst Order (LBO) input. The
Burst function need not be used. New addresses can be loaded
on every cycle with no degradation of chip performance.
Flow Through/Pipeline Reads
The function of the Data Output register can be controlled by
the user via the FT mode pin (Pin 14). Holding the FT mode pin
low places the RAM in Flow Through mode, causing output
data to bypass the Data Output Register. Holding FT high
places the RAM in Pipeline mode, activating the rising-edge-
triggered Data Output Register.
DCD Pipelined Reads
The GS8160E18/32/36AT is a DCD (Dual Cycle Deselect)
pipelined synchronous SRAM. SCD (Single Cycle Deselect)
versions are also available. DCD SRAMs pipeline disable
commands to the same degree as read commands. DCD RAMs
hold the deselect command for one full cycle and then begin
turning off their outputs just after the second rising edge of
clock.
Byte Write and Global Write
Byte write operation is performed by using Byte Write enable
(BW) input combined with one or more individual byte write
signals (Bx). In addition, Global Write (GW) is available for
writing all bytes at one time, regardless of the Byte Write
control inputs.
Sleep Mode
Low power (Sleep mode) is attained through the assertion
(High) of the ZZ signal, or by stopping the clock (CK).
Memory data is retained during Sleep mode.
Core and Interface Voltages
The GS8160E18/32/36AT operates on a 1.8 V or 2.5 V power
supply. All inputs are 2.5 V and 1.8 V compatible. Separate
output power (VDDQ) pins are used to decouple output noise
from the internal circuits and are 2.5 V and 1.8 V compatible.

2. E = T (True) if E2 = 1 and E3 = 0; E = F (False) if E2 = 0 or E3 = 1
3. W = T (True) and F (False) is defined in the Byte Write Truth Table preceding.
4. G is an asynchronous input. G can be driven high at any time to disable active output drivers. G low can only enable active drivers (shown
as “Q” in the Truth Table above).
5. All input combinations shown above are tested and supported. Input combinations shown in gray boxes need not be used to accomplish
basic synchronous or synchronous burst operations and may be avoided for simplicity.
6. Tying ADSP high and ADSC low allows simple non-burst synchronous operations. See BOLD items above.
7. Tying ADSP high and ADV low while using ADSC to load new addresses allows simple burst operations. See ITALIC items above.

Notes:
1. The diagram shows supported (tested) synchronous state transitions plus supported transitions that depend upon the use of G.
2. Use of “Dummy Reads” (Read Cycles with G High) may be used to make the transition from Read cycles to Write cycles without passing
through a Deselect cycle. Dummy Read cycles increment the address counter just like normal read cycles.
3. Transitions shown in gray tone assume G has been pulsed high long enough to turn the RAM’s drivers off and for incoming data to meet
Data Input Set Up Time.

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 ZZ recovery 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.
Application Tips
Single and Dual Cycle Deselect
SCD devices force the use of “dummy read cycles” (read cycles that are launched normally, but that are ended with the output
drivers inactive) in a fully synchronous environment. Dummy read cycles waste performance, but their use usually assures there
will be no bus contention in transitions from reads to writes or between banks of RAMs. DCD SRAMs (like this one) do not waste
bandwidth on dummy cycles and are logically simpler to manage in a multiple bank application (wait states need not be inserted at
bank address boundary crossings), but greater care must be exercised to avoid excessive bus contention.

Notes:
1. Customers requiring delivery in Tape and Reel should add the character “T” to the end of the part number. Example: GS8160E18AT-200IT.
2. The speed column indicates the cycle frequency (MHz) of the device in Pipeline mode and the latency (ns) in Flow Through mode. Each
device is Pipeline/Flow through mode-selectable by the user.
3. TA = C = Commercial Temperature Range. TA = I = Industrial Temperature Range.
4. GSI offers other versions this type of device in many different configurations and with a variety of different features, only some of which
are covered in this data sheet. See the GSI Technology web site (www.gsitechnology.com) for a complete listing of current offerings.
