As shown in Figure 2, serial access storing apparatus 21 of the present invention is to put controller 23 with a quotation to link.Interface therebetween comprises a time clock line (CLK) 230, an address clock pulse (ADD CLK) 210, one two-way data line (DATA) 220, memory read-write (WR/RD) line 240, chip selection (CS) line 250 and memory terminal point (EOM) line 260.Memory read/write line 240 is to be used for the memory access control.
As shown in Figure 4, memory device 21 has a shift register 42, and it responds an address clock pulse signal 210, and first address value of storage arrangement one serial access action is stored.This shift LD utensil one first input end and first data terminal (DATA) link.Memory device 21 has an address decoding circuitry 44, its response is read (READ) signal 242, is write (WRITE) signal 241, the first address value signal 421 and address clock pulse signal 210, and the serial access action is carried out in most addresses in the memory unit array 46.Both are relevant with clock pulse signal 230 and memory read 240 for read signal 242, write signal 241, and its detailed relation has a detailed description in the back, as shown in Figure 7.
Address decoding circuitry 44 has one address latch/counter 442, it has N input end, the data output end (Q) of the corresponding data register 420 with of each input end links, so that respond (Load) signal 448 of packing into, first address value is latched, and respond an increment (increment) signal 446 the access address value is increased one by one.Address decoding circuitry 44 has-the EOM end, and it during by access, exports a memory terminal point (End of Memory) signal 260 in last address of this memory cell array 46.
Address decoding circuitry 44 further comprises an edge detecting device 444, and it responds access control signal 240, clock pulse signal 230 and address clock pulse signal 210, so that produce pack into signal 448 and increment signal 446.
String type access storage unit device 21 has a data buffer 48 and links with data input pin (DATA) and memory cell array 46 respectively, and response access control signal 240 and time clock signal 230, makes described data shift with serial mode.
The present invention is shown in Fig. 5 with the signal sequence that storer writes when action, and as can be known when the value in last memory address during by access, memory terminal point (End of Memory) signal 260 moves (asserted) by wherein.In the signal of Fig. 5, when access control signal 240 became high level under controller 23 effect, for storer writes action, and access signal 240 was when becoming low level under controller 23 effects, and memory read goes out action.
In Fig. 6, show an embodiment of edge detector 444.It has a Sheffer stroke gate 60, one first rejection gate 62, one second rejection gate 64, a not gate 66, a delay circuit 67 and one and door 68.Sheffer stroke gate 60 has two input ends to divide input one read signal 242 and a write signal 241, and has an output terminal to produce increment signal 446.First rejection gate 62 has a first input end, one second input end and one first output terminal.First input end input increment signal 446.Second rejection gate 64 has one the 3rd input end, a four-input terminal and one second output terminal.First output terminal of the 3rd input end Input Address clock pulse signal 210, the four-input terminals and first rejection gate 62 links, and second input end of second output terminal and first rejection gate 62 links and produce one second output signal 641.Not gate 66 has one the 5th input end and one the 3rd output terminal, and second output terminal of the 5th input end and second rejection gate 64 links, and the 3rd output terminal produces one the 3rd output signal 661.With door 68, respond second output signal 641 and the 3rd output signal 661, produce the signal 448 of packing into.
As shown in Figure 7, write signal 241 is to be done to be produced with non-(NAND) operation by clock pulse signal 230 and memory access control signal 240.And read output signal 242 is to be made NOT-AND operation and produced by the non-value of clock pulse signal 230 and memory access control signal 240.
By the explanation of foregoing invention first embodiment as can be known, this case has following advantage:
The first, one single data (DATA) line 220 and an address clock taps 210 enough are used for memory cell array 46 is carried out the string type access, and speed can be too not slow.
The second, the interface signal line that controller 23 and storing apparatus are 21 all must not changed, no matter the amount of capacity of storing apparatus 21, as 256K or 1M or the like.
The 3rd, the address latch/counter 442 in storing apparatus 21 can be exported a signal 260 to controller 23 when storer all deposits data in.Thereby just must not select the memory-aided capacity that makes of signal M1, M2 announcement.
The 4th, the memory storage 21 of multi-form or capacity all can cooperate with identical controller 23, and must not do any correction to storer 21 itself or controller 23.
It is its unique shortcoming that the storage arrangement 21 of first embodiment of the invention can not be handled the variable word length address.
Because after in a single day storage arrangement 21 was made and finished, number of data register 420 was just fixing in it.For example, 20 data registers 420 are arranged to the SRAM (Static Random Access Memory) (SRAM) of 1M.Address clock pulse signal 210 must have 20 time clock correctly to carry out access to memory cell array 46.Surpass 20 time clock if controller 23 is sent on address clock taps 210, then shift register 420 just can only keep 20 last values.Thereby its access action is subject to the capacity of memory 21 itself.Otherwise, send as controller 23 and to be less than 20 time clock, then because of the influence of the left value of some higher bits (higher bits) in the shift register 42, first address value of access will produce mistake.Therefore for overcoming this little minor defect, the present invention provides second embodiment as shown in Figure 8 again.
Second embodiment as shown in Figure 8, has identical shift register 42, address latch/counter 442, memory cell array 46, edge detector 444, data buffer 48 with first embodiment.The function of these elements and manner of execution are all described identical with first embodiment, can not repeat them here with reference to narration relevant among first embodiment.
As shown in Figure 9, reset circuit 450 has a Sheffer stroke gate 90, one first rejection gate 92, one second rejection gate 94, a not gate 96, a delay circuit 97 and a rejection gate 98.Sheffer stroke gate 90 has two input ends and imports a read signal 242 and a write signal 241 respectively, and tool one output terminal.First rejection gate, 92 tools, one first input end, one second input end and one first output terminal.The output terminal of first input end Sheffer stroke gate 90 links.Second rejection gate 94 has one the 3rd input end, four-input terminal and one second output terminal.The 3rd input end Input Address clock pulse signal 210, and first output terminal of the four-input terminal and first rejection gate 92 links, second input end binding of second output terminal and first rejection gate 92 also produces one second output signal 941.Not gate 96, tool 1 the 5th input end and one the 3rd output terminal, second output terminal of the 5th input end and second rejection gate 94 links, and the 3rd output terminal produces one the 3rd output signal 961.Rejection gate 98 responds second output signal 941 and the 3rd output signal 961, produces reset signal 452.
The sequential relationship of signal is shown in Figure 10 among Fig. 9.Similarly, write signal 241, read signal 242 are produced by the circuit of Fig. 7.
Because of first address clock pulse signal 210 places after last once read signal 242 or write signal 241 are cancelled (deasserted) produce an action reset signal 452, so shift register 42 is by reset, so that correctly store first address value that is next read in (clocking) by data line 220 under the time clock effect.If the number of this address value is less than the number of data register 420, can wrongly not take place yet.
