ABSTRACT:
A method for operating an apparatus including a DRAM with a computer system having a PCMCIA interface. The method includes the steps of converting the PCMCIA SRAM control signals sent by the computer system across the PCMCIA interface into DRAM control signals, so as to permit the communication of data and control signals between the computer system and the DRAM device. The method further includes refreshing the DRAM device and arbitrating between the refreshing of the DRAM and providing for communication between the DRAM and the computer system. The method further teaches providing power management functions required for operating a DRAM device in a PCMCIA environment.
