WRITE MODE
The M48Z09,19 is in the Write Mode wh enever
W,
E1, and E2 are active. The start of a write is referenced from the latt er occurring falling edge of
W or
E1, or the rising edge of E2. A write is terminated
by the earlier rising edge of
W or E1, or the falling
edge of E2. The addresses must be held valid
throughout the cycle .
E1 or W must return high or
E2 low for minimum of t
E1HAX
or t
E2LAX
from Chip
Enable or t
WHAX
from Write Enable prior to the
initiation of another read or write cycle. Data-in
must be valid t
DVWH
prior to the end of write and
remain valid for t
WHDX
afterward. G sho uld be kept
high during write cycles to avoid bus contention;
although, if the output bus has been activated by a
low on
E1 and G and a high on E2, a low on W will
disable the outputs t
WLQZ
after W falls.
DATA RETENTION MODE
With va lid VCC applied, the M48Z09,19 operates as
a conventional BYTEWIDE static RAM. Should
the supply voltage decay, the RAM will automatically power-fail deselect, write protecting itself
when V
CC
falls within the V
PFD
(max), V
PFD
(min)
window. All outputs become high impedance, and
all inputs are treated as "don’t care."
Note: A power failure during a write cycle may
corrupt data at the currently addressed location, but
does not jeopardize the rest of the RA M’s content.
At voltages below V
PFD
(min), the user can be assured the memory will be in a write protected stat e,
provided the V
CC
fall time is not less than tF. The
M48Z09,19 may respond to transient noise spikes
on V
CC
that reach into the deselect window during
the time the device is sampling V
CC
. Therefore,
decoupling of the power supply lines is recommended.
When V
CC
drops below VSO, the control circuit
switches power to the internal battery which preserves data and powers the clock. The internal
button cell will maintain data in the M48Z09,19 for
an accumulated period of at least 10 years when
V
CC
is less than VSO. As system power returns and
V
CC
rises above VSO, the battery is disconnected,
and the power supply is switched to external V
CC
.
Write protection continues until V
CC
reaches
V
PFD
(min). E1 should be kept high o r E2 low as
V
CC
rises past V
PFD
(min) to prevent inadvertent
write cycles prior t o processor stabilization. Normal
RAM operation can resume t
REC
after VCC exceeds
V
PFD
(max).
POWER F AI L I NTERRU PT PIN
The M48Z09,19 continuously monitor s V
CC
. When
V
CC
falls to the power-fail detect trip point, an
interrupt is immediately generated. An internal
clock provides a delay of between 10µs and 40µs
before automatically deselecting the M48Z09,19.
The
INT pin is an open drain output and requires
an external pull up resistor, even if the interrupt
output function is not being used.
SYSTEM BATTERY LIFE
The useful life of the battery in the M48Z09,19 is
expected to ultimately come to an end for one of
two reasons: either because it has been discharged
while providing current to the RAM in the battery
back-up mode, or because the effects of aging
render the cell useless before it can actually be
completely discharged. The two effect s are virtually
unrelated allowing discharge, or Capacity Consumption, and the eff ects of aging, or St orage Life,
to be treated as two independent but simultaneous
mechanisms. The earlier occurring failure mecha nism defines the battery system life of the
M48Z09,19.
Cell Storag e L i f e
Storage life is primarily a function of temperature.
Figure 9 illustrates the approximate storage life of
the M48Z09,19 battery over temperature. The results in Figure 9 are derived from temperature
accelerated life test studies performed at SGSTHOMSON. For the purpose of the testing, a cell
failure is defined as the inability of a cell stabilized
at 25°C to produce a 2.4V closed circuit voltage
across a 250 kΩ load resistor. The two lines, t
1%
and t
50%
, represent different failure rate distributions for the cell’ s storage life. At 7 0°C, for example,
the t
1%
line indicates that an M 48Z09,19 has a 1%
chance of having a battery failure 28 years into its
life while the t
50%
shows the part has a 50% chance
of failure at the 50 year mark. The t
1%
line represents the practical onset of wear out and can be
considered the worst case S torage Life f or the cell.
The t
50%
can be considered the normal or average
life.
