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 68µ F or larger capacitor tied from
V
to ground guarantees the STORE operation,
CAP
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.
