Functional Description
The CY7C135/135A
[1]
and CY7C1342 are high speed CMOS 4K
x 8 dual-port static RAMs. The CY7C1342 includes semaphores
that provide a means to allocate portions of the dual-port RAM
or any shared resource. Two ports are provided permitting
independent, asynchronous access for reads and writes to any
location in memory. Application areas include interpro-
cessor/multiprocessor designs, communications status
buffering, and dual-port video/graphics memory.
Each port has independent control pins: chip enable (CE
), read
or write enable (R/W
), and output enable (OE). The
CY7C135/135A is suited for those systems that do not require
on-chip arbitration or are intolerant of wait states. Therefore, the
user must be aware that simultaneous access to a location is
possible. Semaphores are offered on the CY7C1342 to assist in
arbitrating between ports. The semaphore logic is comprised of
eight shared latches. Only one side can control the latch
(semaphore) at any time. Control of a semaphore indicates that
a shared resource is in use. An automatic power down feature is
controlled independently on each port by a chip enable (CE
) pin
or SEM
pin (CY7C1342 only).
The CY7C135/135A and CY7C1342 are available in 52-pin
PLCC.
