MT46V32M16 8

The 512Mb DDR SDRAM MT46V32M16 8 is a high-speed CMOS, dynamic random-access memory containing 536,870,912 bits. It is internally configured as a quadbank DRAM.

The 512Mb DDR SDRAM MT46V32M16 8 uses a double data rate architecture to achieve high-speed operation. The double data rate architecture is essentially a 2n-prefetch architecture with an interface designed to transfer two data words per clock cycle at the I/O pins. A single read or write access for the 512Mb DDR SDRAM MT46V32M16 8 effectively consists of a single 2n-bit wide, one-clock-cycle data transfer at the internal DRAM core and two corresponding n-bit wide, one-half-clock-cycle data transfers at the I/O pins.

A bidirectional data strobe (DQS) of MT46V32M16 8  is transmitted externally, along with data, for use in data capture at the receiver. DQS is a strobe transmitted by the DDR SDRAM during READs and by the memory controller during WRITEs. DQS is edge-aligned with data for READs and center-aligned with data for WRITEs. The x16 offering of MT46V32M16 8 has two data strobes, one for the lower byte and one for the upper byte.

The 512Mb DDR SDRAM MT46V32M16 8 operates from a differential clock (CK and CK#); the crossing of CK going HIGH and CK# going LOW will be referred to as the positive edge of CK. Commands (address and control signals) are registered at every positive edge of CK. Input data of MT46V32M16 8 is registered on both edges of DQS, and output data is referenced to both edges of DQS, as well as to both edges of CK.

Read and write accesses to the DDR SDRAM MT46V32M16 8 are burst oriented; accesses start at a selected location and continue for a programmed number of locations in a programmed sequence. Accesses begin with the registration registration of an ACTIVE command, which is then followed by a READ or WRITE command. The address bits registered coincident with the ACTIVE command are used to select the bank and row to be accessed. The address bits of MT46V32M16 8 registered coincident with the READ or WRITE command are used to select the bank and the starting column location for the burst access.

The DDR SDRAM MT46V32M16 8 provides for programmable READ or WRITE burst lengths of 2, 4, or 8 locations. An auto precharge function may be enabled to provide a selftimed row precharge that is initiated at the end of the burst access.

As with standard SDR SDRAMs MT46V32M16 8, the pipelined, multibank architecture of DDR SDRAMs allows for concurrent operation, thereby providing high effective bandwidth by hiding row precharge and activation time.

An auto refresh mode of MT46V32M16 8 is provided, along with a power-saving power-down mode. All inputs are compatible with the JEDEC Standard for SSTL_2. All full drive strength outputs are SSTL_2, Class II compatible.
