SigmaRAM Family Overview
GS8170LW36/72 SigmaRAMs are built in compliance with
the SigmaRAM pinout standard for synchronous SRAMs.
They are 18,874,368-bit (18Mb) SRAMs. This family of wide,
very low voltage CMOS I/O SRAMs is designed to operate at
the speeds needed to implement economical high performance
networking systems.
ΣRAMs are offered in a number of configurations including
Late Write, Double Late Write, and Double Data Rate (DDR).
The logical differences between the protocols employed by
these RAMs mainly involve various approaches to write
cueing and data transfer rates. The ΣRAM™ family standard
allows a user to implement the interface protocol best suited to
the task at hand.

Because SigmaRAMs are synchronous devices, address data
inputs and read/write control inputs are captured on the rising
edge of the input clock. Write cycles are internally self-timed
and initiated by the rising edge of the clock input. This feature
eliminates complex off-chip write pulse generation required by
asynchronous SRAMs and simplifies input signal timing.
ΣRAMs support pipelined reads utilizing a rising-edge-
triggered output register. They also utilize a Dual Cycle
Deselect (DCD) output deselect protocol.
ΣRAMs are implemented with high performance CMOS
technology and are packaged in a 209-bump BGA.
