  • Method and device for performing write operations to synchronous burst memory
    Patent number: 6640266
    Abstract: A device generally comprising a memory array and a burst sequence generator. The memory array may be configured to store data. The burst sequence generator may be configured to generate a burst sequence in response to address information received by the device. The burst sequence may be configured to identify a plurality of locations for storing data in the memory array. The device may have a maximum operating current of 50 milliamps and/or a maximum standby current of about 25 microamps.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 23, 2001
    Date of Patent: October 28, 2003
    Assignee: Cypress Semiconductor Corp.
    Inventors: Mathew R. Arcoleo, Rajesh Manapat, Scott Harmel
  • Method, architecture and circuitry for independently configuring a multiple array memory device
    Patent number: 6499089
    Abstract: A circuit generally comprising a memory and a logic circuit. The memory may comprise (i) a first section configured to (a) read and write data and (b) have a first configurable size and (ii) a second section configured to (a) read and write data independently of the first section and (b) have a second configurable size. The logic circuit may be configured to control the first configurable size and the second configurable size.
