transitions HIGH. Then OE# can pulse HIGH for a mini-
mum of
t
OEP anytime during the CAS# HIGH period and
the DQs will tristate and remain tristate, regardless of OE#,
until CAS# falls again (please reference Figure 3 for further
detail on the toggling OE# condition). During other cycles,
the outputs are disabled at
t
OFF time after RAS# and CAS#
are HIGH, or
t
WHZ after WE# transitions LOW. The
t
OFF
time is referenced from the rising edge of RAS# or CAS#,
whichever occurs last. WE# can also perform the function
of turning off the output drivers under certain conditions,
as shown in Figure 4.
Returning RAS# and CAS# HIGH terminates a memory
cycle and decreases chip current to a reduced standby level.
The chip is also preconditioned for the next cycle during the
RAS# HIGH time. Memory cell data is retained in its correct
state by maintaining power and executing any RAS# cycle
(READ, WRITE) or RAS# refresh cycle (RAS#-ONLY, CBR,
or HIDDEN) so that all 512 combinations of RAS# ad-
dresses (A0-A8) are executed at least every 8ms, regardless
of sequence. The CBR REFRESH cycle will also invoke the
refresh counter and controller for row address control.
EDO PAGE MODE
DRAM READ cycles have traditionally turned the out-
put buffers off (High-Z) with the rising edge of CAS#. If
CAS# goes HIGH, and OE# is LOW (active), the output
buffers will be disabled. The MT4C16270 offers an acceler-
ated PAGE MODE cycle by eliminating output disable from
CAS# HIGH. This option is called EDO and it allows CAS#
precharge time (
t
CP) to occur without the output data going
invalid (see READ and EDO-PAGE-MODE READ wave-
forms).
EDO operates as any DRAM READ or FAST-PAGE-
MODE READ, except data will be held valid after CAS#
goes HIGH, as long as RAS# and OE# are held LOW and
WE# is held HIGH. OE# can be brought LOW or HIGH
while CAS# and RAS# are LOW, and the DQs will transi-
tion between valid data and High-Z. Using OE#, there are
two methods to disable the outputs and keep them disabled
during the CAS# HIGH time. The first method is to have
OE# HIGH when CAS# transitions HIGH and keep OE#
HIGH for
t
OEHC. This will tristate the DQs and they will
remain tristate, regardless of OE#, until CAS# falls again.
The second method is to have OE# LOW when CAS#
