DESCRIPTION
The DS1330 256K Nonvolatile SRAMs are 262,144–bit,
fully static, nonvolatile SRAMs organized as 32,768
words by eight bits. Each NV SRAM has a self–con-
tained lithium energy source and control circuitry which
constantly monitors V
CC
for an out–of–tolerance condi-
tion. When such a condition occurs, the lithium energy
source is automatically switched on and write protection
is unconditionally enabled to prevent data corruption.
Additionally, the DS1330 devices have dedicated cir-
cuitry for monitoring the status of V
CC
and the status of
the internal lithium battery. There is no limit on the num-
ber of write cycles which can be executed, and no addi-
tional support circuitry is required for microprocessor
interfacing. The devices can be used in place of 32K x 8
SRAM, EEPROM or Flash components. Available in
the Low Profile Module package, DS1330 devices are
specifically designed for surface mount applications.

DS1330Y/AB
READ MODE
The DS1330 devices execute a read cycle whenever
WE (Write Enable) is inactive (high) and CE (Chip
Enable) and OE (Output Enable) are active (low). The
unique address specified by the 15 address inputs (A
0
-
A
14
) defines which of the 32,768 bytes of data is to be
accessed. Valid data will be available to the eight data
output drivers within t
ACC
(Access Time) after the last
address input signal is stable, providing that CE and OE
(Output Enable) access times are also satisfied. If OE
and CE access times are not satisfied, then data access
must be measured from the later occurring signal (CE or
OE) and the limiting parameter is either t
CO
for CE or t
OE
for OE rather than address access.
During power–up, when V
CC
rises above approximately
2.7 volts, the power switching circuit connects external
V
CC
to the RAM and disconnects the lithium energy
source. Normal RAM operation can resume after V
CC
exceeds 4.75 volts for the DS1330AB and 4.5 volts for
the DS1330Y.
SYSTEM POWER MONITORING
DS1330 devices have the ability to monitor the external
V
CC
power supply. When an out–of–tolerance power
supply condition is detected, the NV SRAMs warn a pro-
cessor–based system of impending power failure by
asserting RST. On power up, RST is held active for 200
ms nominal to prevent system operation during pow-
er–on transients and to allow t
REC
to elapse. RST has
an open–drain output driver.
WRITE MODE
The DS1330 devices excute a write cycle whenever the
WE and CE signals are in the active (low) state after
address inputs are stable. The later occurring falling
edge of CE or WE will determine the start of the write
cycle. The write cycle is terminated by the earlier rising
edge of CE or WE. All address inputs must be kept valid
throughout the write cycle. WE must return to the high
state for a minimum recovery time (t
WR
) before another
cycle can be initiated. The OE control signal should be
kept inactive (high) during write cycles to avoid bus con-
tention. However, if the output drivers are enabled (CE
and OE active) then WE will disable the outputs in t
ODW
from its falling edge.
BATTERY MONITORING
The DS1330 devices automatically perform periodic
battery voltage monitoring on a 24 hour time interval.
Such monitoring begins within t
REC
after V
CC
rises
above V
TP
and is suspended when power failure
occurs.
After each 24 hour period has elapsed, the battery is
connected to an internal 1 MΩ test resistor for one
second. During this one second, if battery voltage falls
below the battery voltage trip point (2.6V), the battery
warning output BW is asserted. Once asserted, BW
remains active until the module is replaced. The battery
is still retested after each V
CC
power–up, however, even
if BW is active. If the battery voltage is found to be higher
than 2.6V during such testing, BW is de–asserted and
regular 24–hour testing resumes. BW has an open–
drain output driver.
DATA RETENTION MODE
The DS1330AB provides full functional capability for
V
CC
greater than 4.75 volts and write protects by 4.5
volts. The DS1330Y provides full functional capability
for V
CC
greater than 4.5 volts and write protects by 4.25
volts. Data is maintained in the absence of V
CC
without
any additional support circuitry. The nonvolatile static
RAMs constantly monitor V
CC
. Should the supply volt-
age decay, the NV SRAMs automatically write protect
themselves, all inputs become “don’t care,” and all out-
puts become high impedance. As V
CC
falls below
approximately 2.7 volts, the power switching circuit con-
nects the lithium energy source to RAM to retain data.
FRESHNESS SEAL AND SHIPPING
Each DS1330 is shipped from Dallas Semiconductor
with its lithium energy source disconnected, guarantee-
ing full energy capacity. When V
CC
is first applied at a
level greater than V
TP
, the lithium energy source is
enabled for battery backup operation.
