Unit |
Typical Description |
Operating
Current |
mA |
This is the
maximum amount of current that the SRAM consumes while it is in operation with the Vcc at maximum, the chip select pin active, and the outputs in high
impedance. |
Standby Current |
mA |
This is the
maximum amount of current that the SRAM consumes while it is deselected, i.e.,
while the chip select pin is disabled. |
Output Leakage
Current |
µA |
This is the
maximum amount of current flowing through an I/O pin when the chip is deselected. |
Logic Input
High Voltage, VIH (Logic "1") |
V |
This is the
minimum voltage that the I/O pins of the SRAM are guaranteed to recognize as a
Logic "1".
Example
of an Actual Spec: 2.0 V min. |
Logic Input
Low Voltage, VIL (Logic "0") |
V |
This is the
maximum voltage that the I/O pins of the SRAM are guaranteed to recognize as a
Logic "0".
Example of an
Actual Spec: 0.8 V max. |
Logic Output
High Voltage, VOH (Logic "1") |
V |
This is the
minimum voltage that the I/O pins of the SRAM are guaranteed to output as a
Logic "1".
Example
of an Actual Spec: 2.4 V min. |
Logic Output
Low Voltage, VOL (Logic "0") |
V |
This is the
maximum voltage that the I/O pins of the SRAM are guaranteed to output as a
Logic "0".
Example of an
Actual Spec: 0.4 V max. |
Read Cycle Time |
nsec |
This is the
minimum amount of time needed to complete one read cycle from one memory
address to another. |
Address Access
Time |
nsec |
This is the
maximum amount of time needed for the data read from a memory address to
become valid as referenced from the time the address becomes valid. |
Chip Select
Access Time |
nsec |
This is the
maximum amount of time needed for the data read from a memory address to
become valid as referenced from the time the chip select pin is enabled. |
Output Hold
from Address Change Time |
nsec |
This is the
minimum amount of time that the data from the previous memory address will
be valid as referenced from the time the new address becomes valid. |
Chip Selection
to Active Output Time |
nsec |
This is the
minimum amount of time needed for the output lines to start becoming
active from the time the chip is selected. |
Chip
Deselection to High Impedance Output Time |
nsec |
This is the
maximum amount of time needed to put the output lines in high impedance
mode from the time the chip is deselected. |
Write Cycle
Time |
nsec |
This is the
minimum amount of time needed to complete one write cycle from one memory
address to another. |
Chip Select to
End of Write Time |
nsec |
This is the
minimum amount of time needed that the write enable pin must be active for
a successful write cycle as referenced from the time the chip select pin
is enabled. |
Address Valid
to End of Write Time |
nsec |
This is the
minimum amount of time needed that the write enable pin must be active for
a successful write cycle as referenced from the time the address becomes
valid. |
Address Set-up
Time |
nsec |
This is the
minimum amount of time needed before the write enable pin is activated
from the time the address becomes valid. |
Write Pulse
Width |
nsec |
This is the
minimum amount of time that the write enable pin must be in active mode
for the write cycle to be successful. |
Write Recovery
Time |
nsec |
This is the
minimum amount of time needed from the time the write enable pin is
deactivated before a new write address is provided. |
Data Valid to
End of Write Time |
nsec |
This is the
minimum amount of time that the written data must be valid before the
write enable pin is deactivated. |
Data Hold Time |
nsec |
This is the
minimum amount of time needed before new data to be written are provided
at the I/O lines after the write enable pin is deactivated. |
Write Enabled
to High Output Impedance Time |
nsec |
This is the
maximum amount of time it would take the I/O pins to go from output active
to high impedance mode in preparation for writing data after the write
enable pin is activated. |
Output Active
from End of Write Time |
nsec |
This is the
minimum amount of time it would take the I/O pins to go into output mode
again after the write enable pin is deactivated. |
