ROW-ADDRESS STROBE (RAS\)
OPERATION
RAS\ is similar to a chip enable because all DRAM cycles
and transfer cycles are initiated by the falling edge of RAS\.
RAS\ is a control input that latches the states of row address,
W\, TRG\, SE\, CAS\, and DSF onto the chip to invoke DRAM
and transfer functions.
Depending on the type of operation chosen, the signals of
the SMJ44C251B/MT42C4256 perform different functions. The
“Detailed Signal Description vs. Operational Mode” table
summarizes the signal descriptions and the operational modes
they control.
The SMJ44C251B/MT42C4256 has three kinds of
operations: random-access operations typical of a DRAM,
transfer operations from memory arrays to the SAM, and serial-
access operations through the SAM port. The signals used to
control these operations are described here, followed by
discussions of the operations themselves.
COLUMN-ADDRESS STROBE (CAS\)
CAS\ is a control input that latches the states of column
address and DSF to control DRAM and transfer functions.
When CAS\ is brought low during a transfer cycle, it latches
the new tap point for the serial-data input or output. CAS\ also
acts as an output enable for the DRAM outputs DQ0–DQ3.
ADDRESS (A0–A8)
OUTPUT ENABLE/TRANSFER SELECT (TRG\)
For DRAM operation, 18 address bits are required to
decode one of the 262144 storage cell locations. Nine row-
address bits are set up on A0–A8 and latched onto the chip on
the falling edge of RAS\. Nine column-address bits are set up
on A0–A8 and latched onto the chip on the falling edge of
CAS\. All addresses must be stable on or before the falling
edges of RAS\ and CAS\.
TRG\ selects either DRAM or transfer operation as RAS\
falls. For DRAM operation, TRG\ must be held high as RAS\
falls. During DRAM operation, TRG\ functions as an output
enable for the DRAM outputs DQ0–DQ3. For transfer
operation, TRG\ must be brought low before RAS\ falls.
WRITE-MASK SELECT, WRITE ENABLE (W\)
In DRAM operation, W\ enables data to be written to the
DRAM. W\ is also used to select the DRAM write-per-bit mode.
Holding W\ low on the falling edge of RAS\ invokes the write-
per-bit operation. The SMJ44C251B/MT42C4256 supports both
the normal write-per-bit mode and the persistent write-per-bit
mode.
During the transfer operation, the states of A0–A8 are
latched on the falling edge of RAS\ to select one of the 512
rows where the transfer occurs. To select one of 512 tap points
(starting positions) for the serial-data input or output, the
appropriate 9-bit column address (A0–A8) must be valid when
CAS\ falls.

WRITE-MASK SELECT, WRITE ENABLE (W\)
(continued)
For transfer operation, W\ selects either a read-transfer
operation (DRAM to SAM) or a write-transfer operation (SAM
to DRAM). During a transfer cycle, if W is high when RAS\
falls, a read transfer occurs; if W is low, a write transfer occurs.
serial-output mode, data in SAM is accessed from the least
significant bit to the most significant bit. The data registers
operate modulo 512; so after bit 511 is accessed, the next bits to
be accessed are 00, 01, 02, etc. If the previous transfer cycle was
either a write transfer or a pseudo transfer, the data register is in
serial-input mode and signal data can be input to the register.
SPECIAL FUNCTION SELECT (DSF)
SERIAL CLOCK (SC)
DSF is latched on the falling edge of RAS\ or CAS\, similar
to an address. DSF determines which of the following functions
are invoked on a particular cycle:
Serial data is accessed in or out of the data register on the
rising edge of SC. The SMJ44C251B/MT42C4256 is designed
to work with a wide range of clock-duty cycles to simplify
system design. There is no refresh requirement because the
data registers that comprise the SAM are static. There is also
no minimum SC clock operating frequency.
• Persistent write-per-bit
• Block write
• Split-register transfer read
• Mask-register load for the persistent write-per-bit mode
• Color-register load for the block-write mode
SERIAL ENABLE (SE\)
During serial-access operations SE\ is used as an enable/
disable for SDQ in both the input and output modes. If SE\ is
held as RAS\ falls during a write-transfer cycle, a pseudo-
transfer write occurs. There is no actual transfer, but the data
register switches from the output mode to the input mode.
DRAM DATAI/O, WRITE-MASK DATA (DQ0–DQ3)
DRAM data is written via DQ terminals during a write or
read-modify-write cycle. In an early-write cycle, W\ is brought
low prior to CAS\ and the data is strobed in by CAS\ with data
setup and hold times referenced to this signal. In a delayed-
write or read-modify-write cycle, W\ is brought low after CAS\
and the data is strobed in by W\ with data setup and hold times
referenced to this signal.
The 3-state DQ output buffers provide direct TTL
compatibility (no pullup resistors) with a fanout of two Series 54
TTL loads. Data out is the same polarity as data in. The outputs
are in the high-impedance (floating) state as long as CAS\ and
TRG\ are held high. Data does not appear at the outputs until
both CAS\ and TRG\ are brought low. Once the outputs are
valid, they remain valid while CAS\ and TRG\ are low. CAS\ or
TRG\ going high returns the outputs to the high-impedance
state. In a register-transfer operation, the DQ outputs remain in
the high-impedance state for the entire cycle.
NO CONNECT/GROUND (NC/GND)
NC/GND is reserved for the manufacturer’s test operation.
It is an input and should be tied to system ground or left
floating for proper device operation.
SPECIAL FUNCTION OUTPUT (QSF)
During split-register operation the QSF output indicates
which half of the SAM is being accessed. When QSF is low, the
serial-address pointer is accessing the lower (least significant)
256 bits of SAM. When QSF is high, the serial-address pointer
is accessing the higher (most significant) 256 bits of SAM. QSF
changes state upon crossing the boundary between the two
SAM halves in the split-register mode.
During normal transfer operations QSF changes state upon
completing a transfer cycle. This state is determined
by the tap point being loaded during the transfer cycle.
The write-per-bit mask is latched into the device via the
random DQ terminals by the falling edge of RAS\. This mask
selects which of the four random I/Os are written.
POWER UP
SERIAL DATAI/O (SDQ0–SDQ3)
To achieve proper device operation, an initial pause of
200ms is required after power-up, followed by a minimum of
eight RAS\ cycles or eight CBR cycles, a memory-to-register
transfer cycle, and two SC cycles.
Serial inputs and serial outputs share common I/O
terminals. Serial-input or serial-output mode is determined by
the previous transfer cycle. If the previous transfer cycle was a
read transfer, the data register is in serial-output mode. While in

ENHANCED PAGE-MODE
REFRESH
Enhanced page-mode operation allows faster memory
access by keeping the same row address while selecting
random column addresses. This mode eliminates the time
required for row address setup-and-hold and address
multiplex. The maximum RAS\ low time and the CAS\ page cycle
time used determine the number of columns that can be
accessed.
Unlike conventional page-mode operation, the enhanced
page mode allows the SMJ44C251B/MT42C4256 to operate at a
higher data bandwidth. Data retrieval begins as soon as the
column address is valid rather than when CAS\ transitions low.
A valid column address can be presented immediately after
There are three types of refresh available on the
SMJ44C251B/MT42C4256: RAS\-only refresh, CBR refresh, and
hidden refresh.
RAS\-ONLY REFRESH
A refresh operation must be performed to each row at least
once every 8 ms to retain data. Unless CAS\ is applied, the
output buffers are in the high-impedance state, so the RAS\-
only refresh sequence avoids any output during refresh. Exter-
nally generated addresses must be supplied during RAS-only
refresh. Strobing each of the 512 row addresses with RAS causes

all bits in each row to be refreshed. CAS\ can remain high
(inactive) for this refresh sequence to conserve power.
BLOCK WRITE
The block-write mode allows data (present in an on-chip
color register) to be written into four consecutive
column-address locations. The 4-bit color register is loaded by
the color-register-load cycle. Both write-per-bit modes can be
applied in the block-write cycle. The block-write mode also
offers the 4 × 4 column-mask capability.
CAS\-BEFORE-RAS\ (CBR) REFRESH
CBR refresh is accomplished by bringing CAS\ low earlier
than RAS\. The external row address is ignored and the refresh
row address is generated internally when using CBR refresh.
Other cycles can be performed in between CBR cycles without
disturbing the internal address generation.
LOAD COLOR REGISTER
The load-color-register cycle is performed using normal
DRAM write-cycle timing except that DSF is held high on the
falling edges of RAS\ and CAS\. A 4-bit code is input to the
color register via the random I/O terminals and latched on the
later of the falling edge of CAS\ or W\.After the color register is
loaded, it retains data until power is lost or until another load-
color-register cycle is executed.
HIDDEN REFRESH
A hidden refresh is accomplished by holding CAS\ low in
the DRAM-read cycle and cycling RAS\. The output data of
the DRAM-read cycle remains valid while the refresh is being
carried out. Like the CBR refresh, the refreshed row addresses
are generated internally during the hidden refresh.
BLOCK WRITE CYCLE
After the color register is loaded, the block-write cycle can
begin as a normal DRAM write cycle with DSF held high on the
falling edge of CAS\ (see Figures 2, 3, and 4). When the block-
write cycle is invoked, each data bit in the 4-bit color register is
written to selected bits of the four adjacent columns of the
corresponding random I/O.
WRITE-PER-BIT
The write-per-bit feature allows masking of any
combination of the four DQs on any write cycle (see Figure 1).
The write-per-bit operation is invoked only when W\ is held
low on the falling edge of RAS\. If W\ is held high on the falling
edge of RAS\, write-per-bit is not enabled and the write
operation is performed to all four DQs. The SMJ44C251B/
MT42C4256 offers two write-per-bit modes: the nonpersistent
write-per-bit mode and the persistent write-per-bit mode.
During block-write cycles, only the seven most significant
column addresses (A2–A8) are latched on the falling edge of
CAS\. The two least significant addresses (A0–A1) are replaced
by four DQ bits (DQ0–DQ3), which are also latched on the later
of the falling edge of CAS\ or W\. These four bits are used as a
column mask, and they indicate which of the four
column-address locations addressed byA2–A8 are written with
the contents of the color register during the block-write cycle.
DQ0 enables a write to column-address A1 = 0 (low), A0 = 0
(low); DQ1 enables a write to column-address A1 = 0 (low),
A0 = 1 (high); DQ2 enables a write to column-address A1 = 1
(high),A0 = 0 (low); DQ3 enables a write to column-addressA1
= 1 (high),A0 = 1 (high).Ahigh logic level enables a write, and
a low logic level disables the write.Amaximum of 16 bits (4 × 4)
can be written to memory during each CAS\ cycle in the block-
write mode.
NONPERSISTENT WRITE-PER-BIT
When DSF is low on the falling edge of RAS\, the write
mask is reloaded.A4-bit code (the write-per-bit mask) is input
to the device via the random DQ terminals and latched on the
falling edge of RAS\. The write-per-bit mask selects which of
the four random I/Os are written and which are not. After RAS\
has latched the on-chip write-per-bit mask, input data is driven
onto the DQ terminals and is latched on the later falling edge of
CAS\ or W\. When a data low is strobed into a particular I/O on
the falling edge of RAS\, data is not written to that I/O. When
a data high is strobed into a particular I/O on the falling edge of
RAS\, data is written to that I/O.
PERSISTENT WRITE-PER-BIT
When DSF is high on the falling edge of RAS\, the write-
per-bit mask is not reloaded: it retains the value stored during
the last write-per-bit mask reload. This mode of operation is
known as persistent write-per-bit because the write-per-bit mask
is persistent over an arbitrary number of write cycles. The write-
per-bit mask reload can be done during the nonpersistent write-
per-bit cycle or by the mask-register-load cycle.

• Memory-to-register transfer (pseudo-transfer write).
Switches serial port from serial-out mode to serial-in
mode. No actual data transfer takes place between the
DRAM and the SAM.
• Memory-to-register transfer (normal-read transfer,
transfer entire contents of DRAM row to SAM)
• Split-register-read transfer (divides the SAM into a low
and a high half. Only one half is transferred to the
SAM while the other half is read from the serial I/O port.)
TRANSFER OPERATION
Transfer operations between the memory arrays (DRAM)
and the data registers (SAM) are invoked by bringing TRG\ low
before RAS\ falls. The states of W\, SE\, and DSF, which are
also latched on the falling edge of RAS\, determine which transfer
operation is invoked. Figure 5 shows an overview of data flow
between the random and the serial interfaces.
As shown in the “Transfer-Operation Functions” table,
the SMJ44C251B/MT42C4256 supports five basic modes of
transfer operation:
• Register-to-memory transfer (normal write transfer,
SAM to DRAM)
• Alternate-write transfer (independent of the state of
SE\)

PSEUDO-WRITE TRANSFER
WRITE TRANSFER
All write-transfer cycles (except the pseudo write transfer)
transfer the entire content of SAM to the selected row in the
DRAM. To invoke a write-transfer cycle, W\ must be low when
RAS\ falls. There are three possible write-transfer operations:
normal-write transfer, alternate-write transfer, and pseudo-write
transfer. All write-transfer cycles switch the serial port to the
serial-in mode.
(write-mode control) (refer to Figure 28)
To invoke the pseudo-write transfer (write-mode control
cycle), SE\ is brought high and latched at the falling edge of
RAS\. The pseudo-write transfer does not actually invoke any
data transfer but switches the mode of the serial port from the
serial-out (read) mode to the serial-in (write) mode.
Before serial data can be clocked into the serial port via the
SDQ terminals and the SC input, the SDQ terminals must be
switched into input mode. Because the transfer does not occur
during the pseudo-transfer write, the row address (A0–A8) is
in the don’t care state and the column address (A0–A8), which
is latched on the falling edge of CAS\, selects one of the 512 tap
points in the SAM that are available for the next serial input.
NORMAL-WRITE TRANSFER
(SAM-to-DRAM transfer)
A normal-write transfer cycle loads the contents of the
serial-data register to a selected row in the memory array. TRG\,
W\, and SE\ are brought low and latched at the falling edge of
RAS\. Nine row-address bits (A0–A8) are also latched at the
falling edge of RAS\ to select one of the 512 rows available as READ TRANSFER
the destination of the data transfer. The nine column-address
(DRAM-to-SAM transfer) (refer to Figure 7)
bits (A0–A8) are latched at the falling edge of CAS\ to select
one of the 512 tap points in SAM that are available for the next
serial input.
During a write-transfer operation before RAS\ falls, the
serial-input operation must be suspended after a minimum
During a read-transfer cycle, data from the selected row in
DRAM is transferred to SAM. There are two read-transfer
operations: normal-read transfer and split-register-read
transfer.
delay of td(SCRL) but can be resumed after a minimum delay of
td(RHSC) after RAS goes high (see Figure 6).
NORMAL-READ TRANSFER
(refer to Figure 7)
The normal-read-transfer operation loads data from a
selected row in DRAM into SAM. TRG\ is brought low and
latched at the falling edge of RAS\. Nine row-address bits
(A0–A8) are also latched at the falling edge of RAS\ to select
one of the 512 rows available for transfer. The nine column-

ALTERNATE-WRITE TRANSFER

NORMAL-READ TRANSFER
A normal-read transfer can be performed in three ways:
early-load read transfer, real-time or midline-load read transfer,
and late-load read transfer. Each of these offers the flexibility of
controlling the TRG\ trailing edge in the read-transfer cycle
(see Figure 7).
(refer to Figure 7)
address bits (A0–A8) are latched at the falling edge of CAS\ to
select one of the SAM’s 512 available tap points where the
serial data is read out.

A normal-read transfer must precede the split-register-read
transfer to ensure proper operation. After the normal-read-
transfer cycle, the first split-register read transfer can follow
immediately without any minimum SC requirement. However,
there is a minimum requirement of a rising edge of SC between
split-register read-transfer cycles.
SPLIT-REGISTER-READ TRANSFER
In split-register-read-transfer operation, the serial-data
register is split into halves. The low half contains bits 0–255,
and the high half contains 256–511. While one half is being
read out of the SAM port, the other half can be loaded from the
memory array.
QSF indicates which half of the SAM is being accessed
during serial-access operation. When QSF is low, the serial-
address pointer is accessing the lower (least significant) 256
bits of the SAM. When QSF is high, the pointer is accessing
the higher (most significant) 256 bits of the SAM. QSF changes
state upon completing a normal-read-transfer cycle. The tap
point loaded during the current transfer cycle determines the
state of QSF. In split-register read-transfer mode, QSF changes
state when a boundary between the two register halves is
reached (see Figure 8 and Figure 9).
To invoke a split-register read-transfer cycle, DSF is
brought high, TRG\ is brought low, and both are latched at the
falling edge of RAS\. Nine row-address bits (A0–A8) are also
latched at the falling edge of RAS\ to select one of the 512 rows
available for the transfer. The nine column-address bits
(A0–A8) are latched at the falling edge of CAS\, where address
bitsA0 –A7 select one of the 255 tap points in the specified half
of SAM and address bit A8 selects which half is to be
transferred. IfA8 is a logic low, the low half is transferred. IfA8
is a logic high, the high half is transferred. SAM locations 255
and 511 cannot be used as tap points.

NOTES:
1. The SMJ44C251B may exhibit simultaneous switching noise as described in the Texas Instruments Advanced CMOS Logic Designer’s Handbook.
This phenomenon is exhibited on the DQ terminals when the SDQ terminals are switched and on the SDQ terminals when the DQ terminals are
switched. This may cause VOL and VOH to exceed the data-book limit for a short period of time, depending upon output loading and temperature. Care
should be taken to provide proper termination, decoupling, and layout of the device to minimize simultaneous switching effects.
2. SE\ is disabled for SDQ output leakage tests.
3. ICC (standby) denotes that the SAM port is inactive (standby) and the DRAM port is active (except for ICC2).
ICCA (active) denotes that the SAM port is active and the DRAM port is active (except for ICC2).
ICC is measured with no load on DQ or SDQ.
4. For conditions shown as MIN/ MAX, use the appropriate value specified in the timing requirements.

NOTES:
1. Timing measurements are referenced to VIL max and VIH min.
2. All cycle times assume tt = 5 ns.
3. When the odd tap is used (tap address can be 0–511, and odd taps are 1, 3, 5, etc.), the cycle time for SC in the first serial data out cycle needs to
be 70 ns minimum.
4. In a read-modify-write cycle, td(CLWL) and tsu(WCH) must be observed. Depending on the user’s transition times, this may require additional CAS\ low
time [tw(CL)].
5. In a read-modify-write cycle, td(RLWL) and tsu(WRH) must be observed. Depending on the user’s transition times, this may require additional RAS\ low
time [tw(RL)].
6. Register-to-memory (write) transfer cycles only
7. The minimum value is measured when td(RLCL) is set to td(RLCL) min as a reference.
8. Either th(RHrd) or t(CHrd) must be satisfied for a read cycle.
9. Output-enable-controlled write. Output remains in the high-impedance state for the entire cycle.
10. Read-modify-write operation only
11. TRG\ must disable the output buffers prior to applying data to the DQ terminals.
12. The maximum value is specified only to assure RAS\ access time.
13. CAS\-before-RAS\ refresh operation only
14. Early-load read-transfer cycle only
15. Real-time-reload read-transfer cycle only
16. Late-load read-transfer cycle only
17. In a read-transfer cycle, the state of SC when RAS\ falls is a don’t care condition. However, to assure proper sequencing of the internal clock
circuitry, there can be no positive transitions of SC for at least 10 ns prior to when RAS\ goes low.
18. In a memory-to-register (read) transfer cycle, td(SCRL) applies only when the SAM was previously in serial-input mode.
19. Memory-to-register (read) and register-to-memory (write) transfer cycles only
20. Serial data-in cycles only
21. Switching times assume CL = 100 pF unless otherwise noted (see Figure 12).

NOTE H: Early-load operation is defined as th(TRG) min < th(TRG) < td(RLTH) min.
NOTE I: DQ outputs remain in the high-impedance state for the entire memory-to-data-register transfer cycle. The memory-to-data-register
transfer cycle is used to load the data registers in parallel from the memory array. The 512 locations in each data register are written from the 512
corresponding columns of the selected row. The data that is transferred into the data registers can be either shifted out or transferred back into another
row.
NOTE J: Once data is transferred into the data registers, the SAM is in the serial-read mode (i.e., SQ is enabled), allowing data to be shifted out of the
registers. Also, the first bit to be read from the data register after TRG\ has gone high must be activated by a positive transition of SC.

FIGURE 35: Split-Register-Transfer Operating Sequence
NOTES:
NOTE Q: In order to achieve proper split-register operation, a normal read transfer should be performed before the first split-register transfer cycle.
This is necessary to initialize the data register and the starting tap location. First serial access can then begin either after the normal read-transfer
cycle (CASE I), during the first split-register cycle (CASE II), or even after the first split-register transfer cycle (CASE III). There is no minimum
requirement of SC clock between the normal read-transfer cycle and the first split-register cycle.
NOTE R: A split register transfer into the inactive half is not allowed until td(MSRL) is met. td(MSRL) is the minimum delay time between the rising edge
of the serial clock of the last bit (bit 255 or 511) and the falling edge of RAS\ of the split-register transfer cycle into the inactive half. After td(MSRL)
is met, the split-register transfer into the inactive half must also satisfy the td(RHMS) requirement. td(RHMS) is the minimum delay time between the
rising edge of RAS\ of the split-register transfer cycle into the inactive half and the rising edge of the serial clock of the last bit (bit 255 or 511). There
is a minimum requirement of one rising edge of SC clock between two split-register transfer cycles.

FIGURE 36: Serial-Write-Cycle Timing (SE\ = VIL)
NOTES:
NOTE S: The serial data-in cycle is used to input serial data into the data registers. Before data can be written into the data registers via the SDQ
terminals, the device must be put into the write mode by performing a write-mode-control (pseudo-transfer) cycle or any other write-transfer cycle.
A read-transfer cycle is the only cycle that takes the serial port (SAM) out of the write mode and puts it into the read mode, disabling the input data.
Data is written starting at the location specified by the input address loaded on the previous transfer cycle.
NOTE T: While accessing data in the serial-data registers, the state of TRG\ is a don’t care as long as TRG\ is held high when RAS\ goes low to prevent
data transfers between memory and data registers.

NOTE W: While reading data through the serial-data register, the state of TRG\ is a don’t care as long as TRG\ is held high when RAS\ goes low. This
is to avoid the initiation of a register-to-memory-to-register data-transfer operation.
NOTE X: The serial data-out cycle is used to read data out of the data registers. Before data can be read via SDQ, the device must be put into the read
mode by performing a transfer-read cycle. Any transfer-write cycles occurring between the transfer-read cycle and the subsequent shifting out of data
take the device out of the read mode and put it in the write mode, not allowing the reading of data.
