1Mb x16 Pseudo Static RAM Specification
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The EMP116MEAW series is 16,777,216 bits of Pseudo SRAM which uses DRAM type memory cells, but
this device has refresh-free operation and extreme low power consumption technology. Furthermore the
interface is compatible to a low power Asynchronous type SRAM. The EMP116MEAW is organized as
1,048,576 Words x 16 bit.
FEATURES
- Organization :1M x16
- Power Supply Voltage : 2.7 ~ 3.3V
- Separated I/O power(VccQ) & Core power(Vcc)
- Three state outputs
- Byte read/write control by UB# / LB#
- Support Page Read/Write operation with 16 words
- Support PASR, RMS, DPD and Auto-TCSR for power saving

Stresses greater than those listed above “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. Functional
operation should be restricted to recommended operating condition. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended
periods may affect reliability.
2. Undershoot at power-off : -1.0V in case of pulse width < 20ns

NOTES (WRITE CYCLE)
1. A write occurs during the overlap(t
WP
) of low CS#, low WE# and low UB# or LB#. A write begins at the last
transition among low CS# and low WE# with asserting UB# or LB# low for single byte operation or simultaneously
asserting UB# and LB# low for word operation. A write ends at the earliest transition among high CS# and high WE#.
The t
WP
is measured from the beginning of write to the end of write.
2. t
CW
is measured from CS# going low to end of write.
3. t
AS
is measured from the address valid to the beginning of write.
4. t
WR
is measured from the end of write to the address change. t
WR
applied in case a write ends as CS# or WE# going high.
5. Do not Access device with cycle timing shorter than t
WC
for continuous periods > 1us.

NOTES
1. The Partial Array Refresh and Deep Power Down mode is issued only during ZZ# low state.
2. The RMS (Reduced Memory Size) mode is enabled after ZZ# goes high and remains enabled after ZZ# goes high. To
change to a different mode, the mode register will have to be re-written.
3. If register is written to enable the Deep Power Down, the part will go into Deep Power Down during the following time that
ZZ# is driven low and there is no MRS update. When ZZ# is driven high, all of the register settings will return to dafault state
for the part (i.e. full array refresh, Deep Power Down disabled.)
