M68AR512D

8/19

OPERATION

The M68AR512D has a Chip Enable power down

feature which invokes an automatic standby mode

whenever Chip Enable is de-asserted (E1 = High)

or Chip Select is asserted (E2 = Low), or UB/LB

are de-asserted (UB/LB = High). An Output En-

able (G) signal provides a high speed tri-state con-

trol, allowing fast read/write cycles to be achieved

with the common I/O data bus. Operational modes

are determined by device control inputs W, E1, LB

and UB as summarized in the Operating Modes ta-

ble (see Table 6).

Table 6. Operating Modes

Read Mode

The M68AR512D, when Chip Select (E2) is High,

is in the read mode whenever Write Enable (W) is

High with Output Enable (G) Low, and Chip En-

able (E1) is asserted. This provides access to data

from eight or sixteen, depending on the status of

the signal UB and LB, of the 8,388,608 locations in

the static memory array, specified by the 19 ad-

dress inputs. Valid data will be available at the

last stable address, providing G is Low and E1 is

Low. If Chip Enable or Output Enable access

times are not met, data access will be measured

rather than the address. Data out may be indeter-

Note: E1 = Low, E2 = High, G = Low, W = High, UB = Low and/or LB = Low.
