2 / 32 page  LANCAM A/L series (not recommended for new designs) General Description 2 Rev. 1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION The LANCAM A/L series consists of various depths of 64-bit Content Addressable Memories (CAMs), with a 16-bit wide interface. CAMs, also known as associative memories, operate in the converse way to random access memories (RAM). In RAM, the input to the device is an address and the output is the data stored at that address. In CAM, the input is a data sample and the output is a flag to indicate a match and the address of the matching data. As a result, CAM searches large databases for matching data in a short, constant time period, no matter how many entries are in the database. The ability to search data words up to 64 bits wide allows large address spaces to be searched rapidly and efficiently. A patented architecture links each CAM entry to associated data and makes this data available for use after a successful compare operation. The MUSIC LANCAMs are ideal for address filtering and translation applications in LAN switches and routers. The LANCAMs are also well suited to encryption, database accelerators, and image processing. OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW To use the LANCAM, the user loads the data into the Comparand register, which is automatically compared to all valid CAM locations. The device then indicates whether or not one or more of the valid CAM locations contains data that matches the target data. The status of each CAM location is determined by two validity bits at each memory location. The two bits are encoded to render four validity conditions: Valid, Empty, Skip, and RAM, shown in Status Register Bits on page 24 (bits 29:28). The memory can be partitioned into CAM and associated RAM segments on 16-bit boundaries, but by using one of the two available Mask registers, the CAM/RAM partitioning can be set at any arbitrary size between zero and 64 bits. The LANCAM’s internal data path is 64 bits wide for rapid internal comparison and data movement. Vertical cascading of additional LANCAMs in a daisy chain fashion extends the CAM memory depth for large databases. Cascading requires no external logic. Loading data to the Control, Comparand, and Mask registers automatically triggers a compare. Compares also may be initiated by a command to the device. Associated RAM data is available immediately after a successful compare operation. The Status register reports the results of compares including all flags and addresses. Two Mask registers are available and can be used in two different ways: to mask comparisons or to mask data writes. The RAM validity type allows additional masks to be stored in the CAM array where they may be retrieved rapidly. A simple four-wire control interface and commands loaded into the Instruction decoder control the device. A powerful instruction set increases the control flexibility and minimizes software overhead. Additionally, dedicated pins for match and multiple-match flags enhance performance when the device is controlled by a state machine. These and other features make the LANCAM a powerful associative memory that drastically reduces search delays. |
