description
The TMS4C2972 is a field memory (FMEM) that is upwardly and pin-to-pin compatible with the TMS4C2970
and TMS4C2971, except for the consequences of the block size change (40 instead of 80 words per block) on
old data access mode enabling (see the section titled ‘‘old-/new-data access”).
The device is a two-port memory; data is written in through a 12-bit-wide write port and is read out through a
12-bit-wide read port. Both ports may be operated simultaneously and/or asynchronously. Dynamic storage
cells are employed for main data memory to achieve high storage density, but the TMS4C2972 refreshes its
cells automatically so that device operation appears fully static to the user. All internal pointers and registers
are fully static so that read and write operations can be interrupted for indefinite periods of time without loss of
data.
Please be aware that an important notice concerning availability, standard warranty, and use in critical applications of
Texas Instruments semiconductor products and disclaimers thereto appears at the end of this data sheet.
