DESCRIPTION
The DS1220AB and DS1220AD 16k Nonvolatile SRAMs are 16,384-bit, fully static, nonvolatile SRAMs
organized as 2048 words by 8 bits. Each NV SRAM has a self-contained lithium energy source and
control circuitry which constantly monitors VCC for an out-of-tolerance condition. When such a condition
occurs, the lithium energy source is automatically switched on and write protection is unconditionally
enabled to prevent data corruption. The NV SRAMs can be used in place of existing 2k x 8 SRAMs
directly conforming to the popular bytewide 24-pin DIP standard. The devices also match the pinout of
the 2716 EPROM and the 2816 EEPROM, allowing direct substitution while enhancing performance.
There is no limit on the number of write cycles that can be executed and no additional support circuitry is
required for microprocessor interfacing.

READ MODE
The DS1220AB and DS1220AD 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 11
address inputs (A0-A10) defines which of the 2048 bytes of data is to be accessed. Valid data will be
available to the eight data output drivers within tACC (Access Time) after the last address input signal is
stable, providing that the CE and OE access times are also satisfied. If CE and OE access times are not
satisfied, then data access must be measured from the later-occurring signal and the limiting parameter is
either tCO for CE or tOE for OE rather than address access.
WRITE MODE
The DS1220AB and DS1220AD execute a write cycle whenever the WE and CE signals are active (low)
after address inputs are stable. The latter 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 (tWR ) before another cycle can be initiated. The OE control signal should be kept inactive (high)
during write cycles to avoid bus contention. However, if the output drivers are enabled ( CE and OE
active) then WE will disable the outputs in tODW from its falling edge.
DATA RETENTION MODE
The DS1220AB provides full functional capability for VCC greater than 4.75 volts and write protects by
4.5V. The DS1220AD provides full functional capability for VCC greater than 4.5 volts and write protects
by 4.25V. Data is maintained in the absence of VCC without any additional support circuitry. The
nonvolatile static RAMs constantly monitor VCC. Should the supply voltage decay, the NV SRAMs
automatically write protect themselves, all inputs become “don’t care,” and all outputs become high
impedance. As VCC falls below approximately 3.0 volts, a power switching circuit connects the lithium
energy source to RAM to retain data. During power-up, when VCC rises above approximately 3.0 volts,
the power switching circuit connects external VCC to RAM and disconnects the lithium energy source.
Normal RAM operation can resume after VCC exceeds 4.75 volts for the DS1220AB and 4.5 volts for the
DS1220AD.
FRESHNESS SEAL
Each DS1220 device is shipped from Dallas Semiconductor with its lithium energy source disconnected,
guaranteeing full energy capacity. When VCC is first applied at a level of greater than VTP, the lithium
energy source is enabled for battery backup operation.

WARNING:
Under no circumstances are negative undershoots, of any amplitude, allowed when device is in the
battery backup mode.
NOTES:
1. WE is high for a read cycle.
2. OE = VIH or VIL. If OE = VIH during write cycle, the output buffers remain in a high-impedance state.
3. tWP is specified as the logical AND of CE and WE . tWP is measured from the latter of CE or CE
going low to the earlier of CE or WE going high.
4. tDS is measured from the earlier of CE or WE going high.
5. These parameters are sampled with a 5 pF load and are not 100% tested.
6. If the CE low transition occurs simultaneously with or later than the WE low transition, the output
buffers remain in a high-impedance state during this period.
7 of 9
DS1220AB/AD
7. If the CE high transition occurs prior to or simultaneously with the WE high transition, the output
buffers remain in a high-impedance state during this period.
8. If WE is low or the WE low transition occurs prior to or simultaneously with the CE low transition,
the output buffers remain in a high-impedance state during this period.
9. Each DS1220AB and each DS1220AD has a built-in switch that disconnects the lithium source until
VCC is first applied by the user. The expected tDR is defined as accumulative time in the absence of
VCC starting from the time power is first applied by the user.
10. All AC and DC electrical characteristics are valid over the full operating temperature range. For
commercial products, this range is 0°C to 70°C. For industrial products (IND), this range is -40°C to
+85°C.
11. In a power down condition the voltage on any pin may not exceed the voltage on VCC .
12. tWR1 , tDH1 are measured from WE going high.
13. tWR2 , tDH2 are measured from CE going high.
14. DS1220AB and DS1220AD modules are recognized by Underwriters Laboratory (U.L.) under file
E99151.
