2.2 Read mode
The M48T201Y/V executes a READ cycle whenever W (WRITE enable) is high and E (chip 
enable) is low. The unique address specified by the address inputs (A0-A18) defines which 
one of the on-chip TIMEKEEPER
®
 registers or external SRAM locations is to be accessed. 
When the address presented to the M48T201Y/V is in the range of 7FFFFh-7FFF0h, one of 
the on-board TIMEKEEPER registers is accessed and valid data will be available to the 
eight data output drivers within t
AVQV
 after the address input signal is stable, providing that 
the E
 and G access times are also satisfied. If they are not, then data access must be 
measured from the latter occurring signal (E
 or G) and the limiting parameter is either t
ELQV
for E
 or t
GLQV
 for G rather than the address access time. When one of the on-chip 
TIMEKEEPER registers is selected for READ, the G
CON
 signal will remain inactive 
throughout the READ cycle.
When the address value presented to the M48T201Y/V is outside the range of 
TIMEKEEPER registers, an external SRAM location will be selected. In this case the G
signal will be passed to the G
CON
 pin, with the specified delay times of t
AOEL
 or t
OERL
.
