III - FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION (continued)
III.5 - Memory Interface
III.5.1 - Function Description
The memory interface allows the connection of
Static or Dynamic RAM. The memory space ad-
dressable in the two configurationsis not the same.
In the case of dynamic memory (DRAM), the mem-
ory interface will address up to 16 Megabytes. In
caseof staticmemory(SRAM) only 1 Megabytewill
be addressed. The memory location is always or-
ganized in 16 bits.
The memory is shared between the Multi-HDLC
and the microprocessor. Theaccess to the memory
is arbitrated by an internal function of the circuit:
the bus arbitration.
III.5.2 - Choice of memory versus microproc-
essor and capacity required
The memory interface depends on the memory
chips which are connected. As the memory chips
will be chosen versus the microprocessor and the
wanted memory space, the following table pre-
sents the different configurations DRAM and
SRAM selection versus P.

Example 1 : if the applicationrequires 16 bit mProc-
essor and 1 Megaword Shared memory size, three
capabilities are offered :
- 4 DRAM Circuits (256Kx16) or
- 4 DRAM Circuits (1Mx4) or
- 1 DRAM Circuit (1Mx16).
Example 2 : if the application requires 8 bit mProc-
essor and 1 Megabyte Shared memory size, three
capabilities are offered:
- 2 DRAM Circuits (256Kx16) or
- 8 SRAM Circuits (128Kx8) or
- 2 SRAM Circuits (512kx8).
Example 3 : for small applications it is possible to
connect 2 SRAM Circuits (128Kx8) to obtain 256
Kilobytes shared memory.
III.5.3 - Memory Cycle
For SRAM and DRAM, the different cycles are
programmable. See Memory Interface Configura-
tion Regist. MICR (32)
Each cycle is equal to : p x 1/f
with f the frequencyof signal applied to the Crystal
1 input and p selected by the user. See page 9.
