Interfacing 3.3V CMOS SRAM: High Level Design and Functional Overview
This document provides a comprehensive overview of interfacing 3.3V CMOS SRAM, focusing on the construction and operational principles of a 128 x 8-bit memory chip. Key features include a clock cycle range of 10-20 ns, multiplexed address and data bus to minimize pin usage, and lower power consumption through chip deselect capabilities. Packaging options include 32-pin Plastic SOJ and Type II TSOP. A detailed truth table, timing diagrams, and a list of major SRAM manufacturers are included for reference.

High Level Schematic • Clock cycle of 10-20 ns (Depending on its use). • 3.3 V CMOS SRAM (128 x 8 bit). • Uses multiplexed address and data bus to reduce the number of port pins. The lower address bits are held in latch while the data is transferred.
Functional Block Diagram of SRAM • Single 3.3 V supply. • Lower power consumption via chip deselect. • Available in 32 pin Plastic SOJ, and 32 pin Type II TSOP packages.
