The 6264 is an 8kB static RAM, available in 70 to 200 nanosecond access time variants. It can function on both an 8080 style bus (separate /WE and /OE strobes) or on a 6500 style bus (by grounding /OE and connecting the R/W signal to /WE)

- data
- /CS1 and CS2 (chip selects 1 and 2)
- when /CS1 is low and CS2 is high, the chip is selected and will accept input or provide output to the data bus.
- /WE (write enable)
- When the chip is selected, if this pin is low, the eight-bit data D will be written to the address inside the RAM specified by A
- /OE (output enable)
- When the chip is selected, if this pin is low and /WE is high, the eight bit data in the RAM at address A will be output onto the pins D.
The difference between /OE and the chip selects is that the 6264 responds much faster to /OE, but it draws less power when the chip selects are deasserted.
