The module consists of 18 DRAMS in TSOP-II 400mil packages, surface mounted to a 168-pin FR-4 printed circuit board. Read and write accesses to the SDRAM modules are burst oriented; accesses start at a selected location and continue for a programmed number of locations in a programmed sequence. The address bits registered coincident with the READ or WRITE command are used to select the starting column location for the burst access. The modules provide for programmable READ or WRITE burst lengths of 1, 2, 4 or 8 locations, or the full page. The modules use an internal pipelined architecture to achieve highspeed operation. Precharging one bank while accessing one of the other three banks will hide the precharge cycles and provide high-speed, random- access operation. The modules are designed to operate in 3.3V, low-power memory systems. An auto refresh mode is provided, along with a powersaving, power-down mode. All inputs and outputs are LVTTL-compatible. SDRAM modules offer significant operating performance enhancement over asynchronous DRAM, including the ability to synchronously burst data at a high data rate with automatic column-address generation, the ability to interleave between internal banks in order to hide precharge time and the capability to randomly change column addresses on each clock cycle during a burst access. These dual inline memory modules are intended for mounting into 168-pin edge connector sockets and offer a range of operating frequencies suitable for a variety of high bandwidth, high performance memory system applications SERIAL PRESENCE-DETECT OPERATION The module incorporates serial presence-detect (SPD). The SPD function is implemented using a 2,048-bit EEPROM. This nonvolatile storage device contains 256 bytes. The first 128 bytes can be programmed by Legend to identify the module type and various SDRAM organizations and timing parameters.
