High Temperature 32Kx8 Static RAM
HT6256
The 32K x 8 High Temperature Static RAM is a high performance 32,768
word x 8-bit static random access memory with industry-standard
functionality. It is a fabricated with Honeywell’s HTMOS™ technology,
and is designed for use in systems operating in severe high temperature
environments. The RAM requires only a single 5V ± 10% power supply
and has CMOS compatible I/O.
Power consumption is typically less than 30 mW/MHz in operation, and
less than 10mW when de-selected. The RAM read operation is fully
asynchronous, with a maximum guaranteed access time of 50ns at 5V.
The RAM provides guaranteed performance over the full -55 to +225ºC
temperature range. Typically, parts will operate up to +300ºC for a year, with derated performance. All parts are burned in
at 250ºC.

HT6256
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
SRAM Operation
SRAM operation is asynchronous. Operating modes
are defined in the Truth Table. Read operations can
be controlled by Address (A) or Chip Select (NCS).
Write operations can be controlled by Write Enable
(NWE) or Chip Select (NCS).
Read Operation
A read operation occurs when Chip Select (NCS) is
low and Write Enable (NWE) is high. The output
drivers are controlled independently by the Output
Enable (NOE) signal.
To control a read cycle with NCS where TSLQV is the
access time, all addresses must be valid TAVQV
minus TSLQV prior to the enabling NCS transition.
Address transitions can occur later; however, the valid
Data Output (Q) access time will then be defined by
TAVQV instead of TSLQV. NCS can disable the read
at any time; however, Data Output drivers will enter a
High-Z state TSHQZ later.
To control a read cycle with Address where TAVQV is
the access time, NCS must transition to active TSLQV
minus TAVQV prior to the last Address transition. The
NCS active transition can occur later; however, the
valid Data Output (Q) access time will then be defined
by TSLQV instead of TAVQV. To perform consecutive
read cycles, NCS is held continuously low/high, and
the toggling of any Address will start a new read cycle.
Any amount of toggling or skew between Address
transitions is permissible; however, Data Output will
not become valid until TAVQV following the last
occurring Address transition. The minimum Address
activated read cycle time is TAVAVR which is the time
between the last Address transition of the previous
cycle and the first Address transition of the next cycle.
The valid Data Output from a previous cycle will
remain valid until TAXQX following the first Address
transition of the next cycle.
Write Operation
A write operation occurs when Write Enable (NWE)
and Chip Select (NCS) are low. The write mode can
be controlled via two different control signals: NWE or
NCS can start the write mode and end the write mode,
but the write operation itself is defined by the overlap
of NWE low, and NCS low. Both modes of control are
similar, except the NCS mode deselects the SRAM
when NCS is high between writes.
www.hightempsolutions.com
To write Data (D) into the SRAM, NWE and NCS must
be held low for at least TWLWH and TSLSH
respectively. Any amount of skew between these
signal transitions can be tolerated, and any one of
these control signals can start or end the write
operation as long as there is sufficient overlap in these
signals to ensure a valid write time (e.g., TSLWH and
TWLSH).
Address inputs must be valid at least TAVWL/TAVSL
before the start of write and TAVWH/TAVSH before
the end of write and must remain valid during the write
operation. Hold times for address inputs with respect
to the end of write must be a minimum of
TWHAX/TSHAX.
A Data Input (D) valid to the end of write time of
TDVWH/TDVSH must be provided during the write
operation. Hold times for Data Input with respect to the
end of write must be at least TWHDX/TSHDX. To
avoid Data Input driver contention with the SRAM
output driver, the Data Input (D) must not be applied
until TWLQZ/TGHQZ/TSHQZ after the output drive
(Q) is put into a High-Z condition by NWE/NOE/NCS.
Consecutive write cycles are performed by toggling at
least one of the start of write control signals for
TWHWL/TSHSL. If only one of these signals is used,
the other two must be in their write enable states. The
minimum write cycle time is TAVAVW/TAVAVS.
Signal Integrity
As a general design practice, one should have good
signal integrity which means input signals that are free
of noise, glitches and ringing with rising and falling
edges of ≤10ns. More specifically, an input is
considered to have good signal integrity when the
input voltage monotonically traverses the region
between VIL and VIH in ≤10ns. This is especially
important in a selected and enabled state. When the
device is selected and enabled, the last transitioning
input for the desired operation must have good signal
integrity to maintain valid operation. The transitioning
inputs that bring the device into and out of a selected
and enabled state must also have good signal integrity
to maintain valid operation. When the device is
deselected and/or disabled, inputs can have poor
signal integrity and even float as long as the inputs that
are defining the deselected and/or disabled state stay
within valid VIL and VIH voltage levels. However,
floating inputs for an extended period of time is not
recommended.

PACKAGING
The standard package is a hermetic 28-lead DIP constructed of multilayer ceramic (AI2O3) and features internal
power and ground planes. Ceramic chip capacitors can be mounted on the package by the user to maximize
supply noise decoupling and increase board packing density. These capacitors connect to the internal package
power and ground planes. This design minimized resistance and inductance of the bond wire and package. For
other packaging options or external control of Chip Enable (CE), call Honeywell.

PACKAGE LEVEL SCREENING
The HT6256 package screening includes assembly screening (die-bond and wire-bond adhesion testing, pre-cap
visual inspection, and hermetic seal leak checking). Post-assembly electrical screening includes initial electrical
test, dynamic burn-in at 250C, and final electrical testing at -55C, 25C, and 225C.

ASSEMBLY INFORMATION FOR DIE
Die Bonding
Honeywell recommends using a Eutectic Gold/Silicon perform or high temperature conductive adhesive for die
bonding to a ceramic package.
Wire Bonding
Aluminum bond wires must be used to achieve high temperature reliability. Wirebond the power and ground
pads before the other signal pads.

HT6256
DIE LEVEL SCREENING
The HT6256 die are specified to operate over the entire temperature range. To meet this objective, three levels of
screening are in place.
1. Wafer Level – Each die is 100% electrical tested at room temperature.
2. Sample Package Test – A sample of die from each wafer are assembled into packages and screened
over the temperature range of -55C to +225C to verify performance.
3. The sample packaged parts also receive 44 hours of burn-in at 250C.
RELIABILITY
Honeywell understands the stringent reliability requirements for extreme environment systems and has extensive
experience in reliability testing on programs of this nature. Reliability attributes of the HTMOS™ process were
characterized by testing test structures from which specific failure mechanisms were evaluated. These specific
mechanisms included, but were not limited to, hot carriers, electromigration, and time dependent dielectric
breakdown. This data was then used to make changes to the design models and process to ensure reliable -55
to +225ºC specified products.
