Functional Description

The CY7C1511V18, CY7C1526V18, CY7C1513V18, and
CY7C1515V18 are 1.8V Synchronous Pipelined SRAMs,
equipped with QDR™-II architecture. QDR-II architecture
consists of two separate ports: the read port and the write port to
access the memory array. The read port has dedicated data
outputs to support read operations and the write port has
dedicated data inputs to support write operations. QDR-II archi-
tecture has separate data inputs and data outputs to completely
eliminate the need to “turn-around” the data bus that exists with
common IO devices. Each port can be accessed through a
common address bus. Addresses for read and write addresses
are latched on alternate rising edges of the input (K) clock.
Accesses to the QDR-II read and write ports are completely
independent of one another. To maximize data throughput, both
read and write ports are equipped with DDR interfaces. Each
address location is associated with four 8-bit words
(CY7C1511V18), 9-bit words (CY7C1526V18), 18-bit words
(CY7C1513V18), or 36-bit words (CY7C1515V18) that burst
sequentially into or out of the device. Because data can be trans-
ferred into and out of the device on every rising edge of both input
clocks (K and K and C and C), memory bandwidth is maximized
while simplifying system design by eliminating bus
“turn-arounds”.
Depth expansion is accomplished with port selects, which
enables each port to operate independently.
All synchronous inputs pass through input registers controlled by
the K or K input clocks. All data outputs pass through output
registers controlled by the C or C (or K or K in a single clock
domain) input clocks. Writes are conducted with on-chip
synchronous self-timed write circuitry.
