DESCRIPTION
The Simtek STK14C88-3 is a fast static RAM with a nonvolatile element incorporated in each static memory cell. The
SRAM can be read and written an
unlimited number of times, while independent, non­volatile data resides in nonvolatile elements. Data transfers from the
STORE operation) can take place automatically
(the
SRAM to the nonvolatile elements
on power down. A 68µF or larger capacitor tied from V
to ground guarantees the STORE operation,

regardless of power-down slew rate or loss of power from “hot swapping”. Transfers from the nonvolatile elements to the
SRAM (the RECALL operation) take
place automatically on restoration of power. Initia-
STORE and RECALL cycles can also be soft-
tion of ware controlled by entering specific read sequences. A hardware
STORE may be initiated with
the HSB pin.

STK14C88-3

DEVICE OPERATION

The STK14C88-3 has two separate modes of opera­tion:
SRAM mode and nonvolatile mode. In SRAM
mode, the memory operates as a standard fast static RAM. In nonvolatile mode, data is transferred from SRAM to nonvolatile elements (the STORE operation) or from nonvolatile elements to SRAM (the RECALL operation). In this mode SRAM func­tions are disabled.

NOISE CONSIDERATIONS

The STK14C88-3 is a high-speed memory and so must have a high-frequency bypass capacitor of approximately 0.1µF connected between V
CAP
and VSS, using leads and traces that are as short as pos­sible. As with all high-speed CMOS ICs, normal care- ful routing of power, ground and signals will help prevent noise problems.

SRAM READ

The STK14C88-3 performs a READ cycle whenever E and G are low and W and HSB are high. The address specified on pins A
determines which of
0-14
the 32,768 data bytes will be accessed. When the
READ is initiated by an address transition, the out-
puts will be valid after a delay of t #1). If the be valid at t

A WRITE cycle is performed whenever E and W are low and HSB is high. The address inputs must be stable prior to entering the remain stable until either E end of the cycle. The data on the common I/O pins DQ

SOFTWARE NONVOLATILE STORE

The STK14C88-3 software STORE cycle is initiated by executing sequential E controlled READ cycles from six specific address locations. During the
STORE cycle an erase of the previous nonvolatile
data is first performed, followed by a program of the nonvolatile elements. The program operation copies
SRAM data into nonvolatile memory. Once a
the
STORE cycle is initiated, further input and output are
disabled until the cycle is completed.
Because a sequence of READs from specific addresses is used for tant that no other READ or WRITE accesses inter­vene in the sequence, or the sequence will be aborted and no
STORE or RECALL will take place.
To initiate the software
READ sequence must be performed:
1. Read address 0E38 (hex) Valid READ
2. Read address 31C7 (hex) Valid READ
3. Read address 03E0 (hex) Valid READ
4. Read address 3C1F (hex) Valid READ
5. Read address 303F (hex) Valid READ
6. Read address 0FC0 (hex) Initiate STORE cycle
The software sequence must be clocked with E con-
READs.

Once the sixth address in the sequence has been entered, the STORE cycle will commence and the chip will be disabled.

SOFTWARE NONVOLATILE RECALL

A software RECALL cycle is initiated with a sequence of READ operations in a manner similar to the soft-
STORE initiation. To initiate the RECALL cycle,
ware the following sequence of E controlled READ opera­tions must be performed:
1. Read address 0E38 (hex) Valid READ
2. Read address 31C7 (hex) Valid READ
3. Read address 03E0 (hex) Valid READ
4. Read address 3C1F (hex) Valid READ
5. Read address 303F (hex) Valid READ
6. Read address 0C63 (hex) Initiate RECALL cycle
Internally, RECALL is a two-step procedure. First, the
SRAM data is cleared, and second, the nonvolatile
information is transferred into the SRAM cells. After the t ready for
cycle time the SRAM will once again be

READ and WRITE operations. The RECALL
operation in no way alters the data in the nonvolatile elements. The nonvolatile data can be recalled an unlimited number of times.

AutoStore™ OPERATION

HSB OPERATION

The STK14C88-3 provides the HSB pin for control­ling and acknowledging the HSB pin can be used to request a hardware STORE cycle. When the HSB pin is driven low, the STK14C88-3 will conditionally initiate a ation after t

STK14C88-3
To operate in this mode the HSB pin should be con­nected together to the HSB
pins from the other STK14C88-3s. An external pull-up resistor to + 3.3V is required since HSB down. The V

pins from the other STK14C88-3 parts can be tied together and share a single capac­itor. The capacitor size must be scaled by the num­ber of devices connected to it. When any one of the STK14C88-3s detects a power loss and asserts
, the common HSB pin will cause all parts to
HSB request a
STORE cycle (a STORE will take place in
those STK14C88-3s that have been written since the last nonvolatile cycle).
During any
STORE operation, regardless of how it
was initiated, the STK14C88-3 will continue to drive the HSB pin low, releasing it only when the STORE is complete. Upon completion of the
STORE operation
the STK14C88-3 will remain disabled until the HSB pin returns high.
If HSB is not used, it should be left unconnected.

LOW AVERAGE ACTIVE POWER

The STK14C88-3 draws significantly less current when it is cycled at times longer than 55ns. Figure 3 shows the relationship between ICC and READ cycle time. Worst-case current consumption is shown for
CMOS and TTL input levels (commercial tem-
both perature range, VCC = 3.6V, 100% duty cycle on chip enable). Figure 4 shows the same relationship for
WRITE cycles. If the chip enable duty cycle is less
than 100%, only standby current is drawn when the chip is disabled. The overall average current drawn by the STK14C88-3 depends on the following items:
CMOS vs. TTL input levels; 2) the duty cycle of
1) chip enable; 3) the overall cycle rate for accesses;
4) the ratio of temperature; 6) the V
READs to WRITEs; 5) the operating
level; and 7) I/O loading.
