I am trying to simply read and write to a HM6116 SRAM memory. This is the arrangement I have made on a breadboard... the idea is that I can control the /WE and /OE lines to read and write on address "1" while controlling the databus I/O 1 ~ I/O 3.
Well, the first problem is that it doesn't work--the memory does not seem to save the value. Secondly, the memory becomes very hot, and after about 30 seconds of operation, becomes cold again--no matter what arrangement of the /WE and /OE, and the datalines I make. (after it becomes cold, it doesn't become hot again)
I hope you are not laughing your head off at me but I am a complete neuighbh!!
any insights will be greatly appreciated. An insight as to how to make it work will be appreciated even more.
(P.S. there are resistors on the LEDs. I just didn't draw them on the "diagram")
