Mitsubishi’s Static RAM cards provide large memory
capacities on a device approximately the size of a
credit card (85.6mm×54mm×3.3mm). The cards use
a 8/16 bit data-bus.
Available in 64KB, 128KB, 256KB, 512KB,
1 MB, 2 MB and 4 MB capacities, Mitsubishi’s
SRAM cards conform to the PC Card Standard.
Mitsubishi achieved high density memory, while
maintaining credit size by using a thin small outline
packaging technology (TSOP). The TSOP surpasses
conventional memory card chip-on-board packaging
technology where larger, surface-mount devices
result in a tradeoff between card size and optimum
memory density. The TSOP, with external leads
spaced on 20-mil centers, is over four times smaller
than standard equivalent pin count surface-mount
packages. This allows up to 8 memory ICs (plus
interface circuitry) to be mounted in a card that in
only 3.3mm thick.
MF3XXX-J9CATXX series is the Static RAM cards which has 8/16 bit changeable data-bus width.
The card has a replaceable lithium main battery to maintain data in memory and has an auxiliary battery to
maintain data in memory while the main battery is replaced. When the card is not use or the supply voltage
drops, the main battery will automatically maintain data in memory.
6. FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The function of the card is determined by the combination of the following five control signals,
REG#, CE1#, CE2#, OE#, WE#; active low signals. (Please refer to section 10 FUNCTION TABLE on page 5)
((1))COMMON MEMORY FUNCTION
When REG# signal is high level, the common memory area is selected.
((a))READ MODE
To read, WE# is set high level and CE1# or CE2# is set low level and the memory address is applied at inputs
A0-A21(4MB). Setting OE# low level executes the reading with output at data-bus. It is available to make the
following functions according to the combination of CE1# and CE2#.
When CE1# is set low level and CE2# is set high level, the card operates as an 8 bit data-bus width card.
The data can be dealt with lower data-bus(D0-D7).
When both CE1# and CE2# are set low level, the card operates as a 16 bit data-bus width card.
At this mode LSB of address-bus (A0) is ignored.
In addition odd byte can be accessed through upper data-bus(D8-D15) when CE1# is set high level and CE2# is
set low level. This mode is useful when handling only odd bytes in the 16 bit data-bus interface system (A0 is
ignored).
When both CE1# and CE2# are set high level, the card becomes a standby mode where the card consumes
low power and the data-bus is placed in high impedance state (above functions of CE1# and CE2# are the same
as in the following modes).
When both OE# and WE# are set high level, the card becomes a output disable mode and the data-bus is
placed in high impedance state.
((b))WRITE MODE
To write, the memory address is first applied at inputs A0-A21(4MB) and the data is applied at output pins.
Setting CE1# or CE2# low level, WE# low level and OE# high level executes the writing.
((2))ATTRIBUTE MEMORY FUNCTION
When REG# is set low level, the attribute memory area is selected. MF3XXX-J9CATXX series have no
attribute memory but outputs FFh on the lower data-bus(D0-D7) when the following conditions are applied
(a)setting CE1# low, CE2# high, OE# low, WE# high and A0 low
(b)setting CE1# low, CE2# low, OE# low and WE# high
((3))BATTERY
When the card is used for long periods of time, eventually battery exhaustion occurs. If such a situation is
encountered, replace any exhausted battery with a new one as directed in section 21.2 ″REPLACING BATTERY″
(page 14).
The replacement battery model number is indicated under section 21 ″BATTERY SPECIFICATIONS″(page 14).
7. WRITE PROTECT MODE
When the write protect switch is switched on, this card goes into a write protect mode that can read but not
write data. In this mode, WP pin becomes “H” level.
At the shipment the write protect switch is switched off (Normal mode : The card can be written ; WP pin
indicates “L” level).

20. BATTERY SPECIFICATIONS
Please use the following coin type lithium battery.
Type of main battery; CR2025 or equivalents
20.1 BATTERY LIFE EXPECTANCY
The calculated main battery’s life expectancies are as follows.
MF3XXX-J9CATXX series have two batteries inside the card as follows.
Lithium battery; for main battery (replaceable)
Rechargeable battery; for auxiliary battery (not replaceable)
For main battery replacement, perform the following procedure. Performing any other procedures will lose the
data recorded in the IC card.
(1)Have on hand a new main battery that has the same model number as or is equivalent currently installed one.
(2)Insert the IC card into the system and apply power to the IC card so that the auxiliary battery will be charged.
(more than 5 minutes)
(3)While pressing the main battery holder cam release levers inward, slowly withdraw the main battery holder.
(4)With the new main battery set in the battery holder, insert it completely into the IC card.
(5)If the battery holder is incorrectly oriented, it will not smoothly fit into its position or the IC card will bulge.
If such a situation is encountered, properly reorient the battery and battery holder and try again.
(6)Insert the battery holder until it clicks into position.
<NOTICE>
Main battery replacement must be completed quickly (recommended time is within 10 minutes).
If too much time is taken, the recorded data may be lost.
The built-in auxiliary battery cannot be replaced.
21. CONNECTOR
The number of card insertion and removal are as follows.
Office environment 10000 times min. at speed of 10 cycles/min.
Harsh environment 5000 times min. at speed of 10 cycles/min.
22. CARD WEIGHT about 35g

Note10. The battery voltage detect signals indicate the present state of the battery.
They do not guarantee the data retention.
25.CONCERNING THE SECURITY OF DATA
There is always the possibility that a soft-error (this malfunction is not permanent hence it is called soft and
the data can be restored by rewriting) may occur with semiconductor products.
When keeping the important data within an IC card, remember to give due consideration to safety when
making your circuit designs, with appropriate measures such as
(1) Keeping multiple copies of the data.
(2) Addition of ECC or CRC by software or hardware.
