ABSTRACT:
An improved memory controller which can support varying numbers of banks of memory without requiring any more RAS output pins than are necessary for a minimum number of banks of memory. The memory controller chip has N RAS output pins. An internal decoder selects one of N decode outputs after decoding internally provided coded RAS addresses. A timing signal is generated to control the duration of the selected decoder output to provide the proper pulse length for the RAS signal. An internal multiplexer, with its outputs coupled to the RAS output pins, selects either the N decode outputs from the decoder or the timing signal and the internally provided addresses directly.
