  • Abstract
    This 16 Mb embedded DRAM macro is optimized for use in a 3D graphics engine chip. The main characteristics of this macro are a 714 MHz clock, 1.43 GHz per I/O data rate (DDR), and reduced power (520 mW at 1.5 V). Additional features include a hidden write mode and low-capacitance, low-power data busing.
