LANCAM A/L series (not recommended for new designs)
APPLICATION BENEFITS
DISTINCTIVE CHARACTERISTICS
The 256x64 to 4Kx64 LANCAM A/L series facilitate
numerous operations:
•
High density CMOS Content Addressable Memory
(CAM)
•
Available in the following depths: 256 (3480), 512
(5480), 1K (1480), 2K (2480) and 4K (4480) words.
•
•
Fast speed allows processing of both DA and SA
within 450 ns, equivalent to 138 ports of 10 Base-T or
13 ports of 100 Base-T Ethernet (50 ns device)
•
•
•
•
64-bit per word memory organization
16-bit I/O
Full CAM features allow all operations to be masked
on a bit-by-bit basis
Fast 50 ns compare speed (1480A and 2480A)
•
•
Powerful instruction set for any list processing need
Dual configuration register set for rapid context
switching
Shiftable Comparand and Mask registers assist in
proximate matching algorithms
•
•
16-bit CAM/RAM segments with MUSIC’s patented
partitioning
•
Cascadable to any practical length with no
performance penalties
/MA and /MM output flags to enable faster system
performance
•
•
Industrial temperature grades for harsh environments
Available in 3.3 Volt for lower power systems
•
•
Readable Device ID
Selectable faster operating mode with no wait states
after a no-match
•
•
•
•
Validity bit setting accessible from the Status register
Single cycle reset for Segment Control register
5 Volt (A series) or 3.3 Volt (L series) operation
44-pin PLCC package
(Use functional compatible LANCAM B family for new designs)
(also available in Lead-Free package upon request)
