The CY14B101K nvSRAM is made up of two functional
components paired in the same physical cell, a SRAM memory
cell and a nonvolatile QuantumTrap cell. The SRAM memory
cell operates as a standard fast static RAM. Transfer of the
data can be from the SRAM to the nonvolatile cell (the STORE
operation), or from the nonvolatile cell to SRAM (the RECALL
operation). This unique architecture allows all cells to be
stored and recalled in parallel. During the STORE and
RECALL operations SRAM READ and WRITE operations are
inhibited. The CY14B101K supports infinite reads and writes
just like a typical SRAM. In addition, it provides infinite
RECALL operations from the nonvolatile cells and up to
200,000 STORE operations.
CY14B101K
WE
SRAM READ
The CY14B101K performs a READ cycle whenever CE and
OE are low, while WE and HSB are high. The address
specified on pins A0-16 determines which of the 131,072 data
bytes will be accessed. When the READ is initiated by an
address transition, the outputs will be valid after a delay of tAA
(READ cycle 1). If the READ is initiated by CE or OE, the
outputs will be valid at tACE or at tDOE, whichever is later
(READ cycle 2). The data outputs repeatedly responds to
address changes within the tAA access time without the need
for transitions on any control input pins. It remains valid until
another address change, or until CE or OE is brought high, or
WE or HSB is brought low.
SRAM WRITE
A WRITE cycle is performed whenever CE and WE are low
and HSB is high. The address inputs must be stable before
entering the WRITE cycle and must remain stable until either
CE or WE goes high, at the end of the cycle. The data on the
common IO pins DQ0–7 will be written into the memory if the
data is valid tSD before the end of a WE-controlled WRITE or
before the end of an CE-controlled WRITE. It is recommended
that OE be kept high during the entire WRITE cycle to avoid
data bus contention on common IO lines. If OE is left low,
internal circuitry turns off the output buffers tHZWE after WE
goes low.
AutoStore Operation
The CY14B101K stores data to nvSRAM using one of three
storage operations. These three operations are Hardware
Store activated by HSB, Software Store activated by an
address sequence, and AutoStore on device power down.
AutoStore operation is a unique feature of QuantumTrap
technology and is enabled by default on the CY14B101K.
During normal operation, the device draws current from VCC
to charge a capacitor connected to the VCAP pin. This stored
charge will be used by the chip to perform a single STORE
operation. If the voltage on the VCC pin drops below VSWITCH,
the part automatically disconnects the VCAP pin from VCC. A
STORE operation will be initiated with power provided by the
VCAP capacitor.
Figure 1 shows the proper connection of the storage capacitor
(VCAP) for automatic store operation. Refer to the Table , “DC
Electrical Characteristics,” on page 14 for the size of VCAP.
Document #: 001-06401 Rev. *E
The voltage on the VCAP pin is driven to 5V by a charge pump
internal to the chip. A pull up must be placed on WE to hold it
inactive during power up.
To reduce unnecessary nonvolatile stores, AutoStore and
Hardware Store operations will be ignored unless at least one
WRITE operation has taken place since the most recent
STORE or RECALL cycle. Software initiated STORE cycles
are performed regardless of whether a WRITE operation has
taken place. Monitor the HSB signal by the system to detect if
an AutoStore cycle is in progress.
Hardware STORE (HSB) Operation
The CY14B101K provides the HSB pin for controlling and
acknowledging the STORE operations. Use the HSB pin to
request a hardware STORE cycle. When the HSB pin is driven
low, the CY14B101K conditionally initiates a STORE operation
after tDELAY. An actual STORE cycle only begins if a WRITE to
the SRAM took place since the last STORE or RECALL cycle.
The HSB pin also acts as an open drain driver that is internally
driven low to indicate a busy condition while the STORE
(initiated by any means) is in progress.
SRAM READ and WRITE operations that are in progress
when HSB is driven low by any means are given time to
complete before the STORE operation is initiated. After HSB
goes low, the CY14B101K continues SRAM operations for
tDELAY. During tDELAY, multiple SRAM READ operations may
take place. If a WRITE is in progress when HSB is pulled low
it will be allowed a time, tDELAY, to complete. However, any
SRAM WRITE cycles requested after HSB goes low will be
inhibited until HSB returns high.
During any STORE operation, regardless of how it was
initiated, the CY14B101K continues to drive the HSB pin low,
releasing it only when the STORE is complete. Upon
completion of the STORE operation the CY14B101K remains
disabled until the HSB pin returns high. Leave the HSB
unconnected if it is not used.

PRELIMINARY
Hardware RECALL (Power Up)
During power up, or after any low power condition
(VCC < VSWITCH), an internal RECALL request will be latched.
When VCC once again exceeds the sense voltage of VSWITCH,
a RECALL cycle will be automatically initiated and takes
tHRECALL to complete.
Software STORE
Using a software address sequence, transfer the data from the
SRAM to the nonvolatile memory. The CY14B101K software
STORE cycle is initiated by executing sequential
CE-controlled READ cycles from six specific address locations
in exact order. During the STORE cycle an erase of the
previous nonvolatile data is first performed, followed by a
program of the nonvolatile elements. Once a 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 STORE initiation, it is important that no other READ
or WRITE accesses intervene in the sequence. If there are
intervening READ OR WRITE accesses, the sequence will be
aborted and no STORE or RECALL takes place.
To initiate the software STORE cycle, the following READ
sequence must be performed:
1. Read Address 0x4E38 Valid READ
2. Read Address 0xB1C7 Valid READ
3. Read Address 0x83E0 Valid READ
4. Read Address 0x7C1F Valid READ
5. Read Address 0x703F Valid READ
6. Read Address 0x8FC0 Initiate STORE cycle
The software sequence may be clocked with CE-controlled
READs or OE-controlled READs. Once the sixth address in
the sequence has been entered, the STORE cycle
commences and the chip will be disabled. It is important that
READ cycles and not WRITE cycles be used in the sequence.
It is not necessary that OE be low for the sequence to be valid.
After the tSTORE cycle time has been fulfilled, the SRAM will
again be activated for READ and WRITE operation.
Software RECALL
Transfer the data from the nonvolatile memory to the SRAM
by a software address sequence. A software RECALL cycle is
initiated with a sequence of READ operations in a manner
similar to the software STORE initiation. To initiate the
RECALL cycle, the following sequence of CE-controlled
READ operations must be performed:
1. Read Address 0x4E38 Valid READ
2. Read Address 0xB1C7 Valid READ
3. Read Address 0x83E0 Valid READ
4. Read Address 0x7C1F Valid READ
5. Read Address 0x703F Valid READ
6. Read Address 0x4C63 Initiate RECALL Cycle
CY14B101K
transferred into the SRAM cells. After the tRECALL cycle time
the SRAM will once again be ready for READ and WRITE
operations.The RECALL operation does not alter the data in
the nonvolatile elements.
Preventing AutoStore
Disable the AutoStore function by initiating an AutoStore
Disable sequence. A sequence of READ operations is
performed in a manner similar to the software STORE
initiation. To initiate the AutoStore Disable sequence, the
following sequence of CE-controlled READ operations must
be performed:
1. Read Address 0x4E38 Valid READ
2. Read Address 0xB1C7 Valid READ
3. Read Address 0x83E0 Valid READ
4. Read Address 0x7C1F Valid READ
5. Read Address 0x703F Valid READ
6. Read Address 0x8B45 AutoStore Disable
Re-enable the AutoStore by initiating an AutoStore Enable
sequence. A sequence of READ operations is performed in a
manner similar to the software RECALL initiation. To initiate
the AutoStore Enable sequence, the following sequence of
CE-controlled READ operations must be performed:
1. Read Address 0x4E38 Valid READ
2. Read Address 0xB1C7 Valid READ
3. Read Address 0x83E0 Valid READ
4. Read Address 0x7C1F Valid READ
5. Read Address 0x703F Valid READ
6. Read Address 0x4B46 AutoStore Enable
If the AutoStore function is disabled or re-enabled a manual
STORE operation (Hardware or Software) needs to be issued
to save the AutoStore state through subsequent power down
cycles. The part comes from the factory with AutoStore
enabled.
Data Protection
The CY14B101K protects data from corruption during low
voltage conditions by inhibiting all externally initiated STORE
and WRITE operations. The low voltage condition is detected
when VCC < VSWITCH. If the CY14B101K is in a WRITE mode
(both CE and WE low) at power up, after a RECALL, or after
a STORE, the WRITE will be inhibited until a negative
transition on CE or WE is detected. This protects against
inadvertent writes during power up or brownout conditions.
Noise Considerations
The CY14B101K is a high-speed memory and so must have
a high-frequency bypass capacitor of approximately 0.1 µF
connected between VCC and VSS, using leads and traces that
are as short as possible. As with all high-speed CMOS ICs,
careful routing of power, ground, and signals reduces circuit
noise.
Internally, RECALL is a two-step procedure. First, the SRAM
data is cleared, and second, the nonvolatile information is

Low Average Active Power
CMOS technology provides the CY14B101K, the benefit of
drawing significantly less current when it is cycled at times
longer than 50 ns. Figure 2 on page 6 shows the relationship

eight registers dedicated to the clock functions that are used
to set time with a WRITE cycle and to READ time during a
READ cycle. These registers contain the Time of Day in BCD
format. Bits defined as “0” are currently not used and are
reserved for future use by Cypress.
Reading the Clock
While the double-buffered RTC register structure reduces the
chance of reading incorrect data from the clock, you have to
halt internal updates to the CY14B101K clock registers before
reading clock data to prevent the reading of data in transition.
Stopping the internal register updates does not affect clock
accuracy. The update process is stopped by writing a “1” to the
READ bit “R” (in the flags register at 0x1FFF0), and will not
restart until a “0” is written to the READ bit. The RTC registers
can then be READ while the internal clock continues to run.
Within 20 ms after a “0” is written to the READ bit, all
CY14B101K registers are simultaneously updated.
Setting the Clock
Setting the WRITE bit “W” (in the flags register at 0x1FFF0) to
a “1” halts updates to the CY14B101K registers. The correct
day, date, and time can then be written into the registers in
24-hour BCD format. The time written is referred to as the
“Base Time.” This value is stored in nonvolatile registers and
used in calculation of the current time. Resetting the WRITE
bit to “0” transfers those values to the actual clock counters,
after which the clock resumes normal operation.
Backup Power
between ICC and READ/WRITE cycle time. Worst case current
consumption is sREADhown for commercial temperature
range, VCC = 3.6V, and chip enable at maximum frequency.
Only standby current is drawn when the chip is disabled.
The overall average current drawn by the CY14B101K
depends on the following items:
1. The duty cycle of chip enable.
2. The overall cycle rate for accesses.
3. The ratio of READs to WRITEs.
4. The operating temperature.
5. The VCC level.
6. IO loading.
Real-Time Clock Operation
nvTIME Operation
The CY14B101K offers internal registers that contain clock,
alarm, watchdog, interrupt, and control functions. Internal
double buffering of the clock and the clock/timer information
registers prevents accessing transitional internal clock data
during a READ or WRITE operation. Double buffering also
circumvents disrupting normal timing counts or clock accuracy
of the internal clock while accessing clock data. Clock and
Alarm Registers store data in BCD format.
Clock Operations
The clock registers maintain time up to 9,999 years in one
second increments. The user can set the time to any calendar
time and the clock automatically keeps track of days of the
week, month, leap years, and century transitions. There are
Document #: 001-06401 Rev. *E
The RTC in the CY14B101K is intended for permanently
powered operation. Either the VRTCcap or VRTCbat pin is
connected depending on whether a capacitor or battery is
chosen for the application. When primary power, VCC, fails and
drops below VSWITCH the device will switch to the backup
power supply.
The clock oscillator uses very little current which maximizes
the backup time available from the backup source. Regardless
of clock operation with the primary source removed, the data
stored in nvSRAM is secure, having been stored in the
nonvolatile elements as power was lost.
During backup operation the CY14B101K consumes a
maximum of 300 nA at 2 volts. Capacitor or battery values
must be chosen according to the application.
Backup time values based on maximum current specs are
shown in the following table. Nominal times are approximately
three times longer.

Using a capacitor has the obvious advantage of recharging the
backup source each time the system is powered up. If a
battery is used, a 3V lithium is recommended and the
CY14B101K will only source current from the battery when the
primary power is removed. The battery will not however be

recharged at any time by the CY14B101K. The battery
capacity should be chosen for total anticipated cumulative
downtime required over the life of the system.
Stopping and Starting the Oscillator
The OSCEN bit in the calibration register at 0x1FFF8 controls
the starting and stopping of the oscillator. This bit is nonvolatile
and shipped to customers in the “enabled” (set to 0) state. To
preserve battery life while system is in storage, OSCEN should
be set to a 1. This turns off the oscillator circuit extending the
battery life. If the OSCEN bit goes from disabled to enabled, it
takes approximately 5 seconds (10 seconds max) for the
oscillator to start.
The CY14B101K has the ability to detect oscillator failure. This
is recorded in the OSCF (Oscillator Failed bit) of the flags
register at address 0x1FFF0. When the device is powered on
(VCC goes above VSWITCH) the OSCEN bit is checked for
“enabled” status. If the OSCEN bit is enabled and the oscillator
is not active, the OSCF bit is set. The user should check for
this condition and then WRITE a 0 to clear the flag. It should
be noted that in addition to setting the OSCF flag bit, the time
registers are reset to the “Base Time” (see the section Setting
the Clock on page 6), which is the value last written to the
timekeeping registers. The Control/Calibration register and
the OSCEN bit are not affected by the oscillator failed
condition.
If the voltage on the backup supply (either VRTCcap or VRTCbat)
falls below their minimum level, the oscillator may fail, leading
to the oscillator failed condition, which can be detected when
system power is restored.
The value of OSCF should be reset to 0 when the time
registers are written for the first time. This initializes the state
of this bit which may have become set when the system was
first powered on.
Calibrating the Clock
The RTC is driven by a quartz-controlled oscillator with a
nominal frequency of 32.768 kHz. Clock accuracy depends on
the quality of the crystal, usually specified to 35 ppm limits at
25°C. This error could equate to +1.53 minutes in accordance
with month. The CY14B101K employs a calibration circuit that
can improve the accuracy to +1/–2 ppm at 25°C. The
calibration circuit adds or subtracts counts from the oscillator
divider circuit.
The number of pulses that are suppressed (subtracted,
negative calibration) or split (added, positive calibration)
depends upon the value loaded into the five calibration bits
found in calibration register at 0x1FFF8. Adding counts
speeds the clock up; subtracting counts slows the clock down.
The calibration bits occupy the five lower order bits in the
control register 8. Set these bits to represent any value
between 0 and 31 in binary form. Bit D5 is a sign bit, where a
“1” indicates positive calibration and a “0” indicates negative
calibration. Calibration occurs within a 64 minute cycle. The
first 62 minutes in the cycle may, once in accordance with
minute, have one second either shortened by 128 or
lengthened by 256 oscillator cycles.
If a binary “1” is loaded into the register, only the first two
minutes of the 64 minute cycle will be modified; if a binary 6 is
loaded, the first 12 will be affected, and so on. Therefore, each
Document #: 001-06401 Rev. *E
CY14B101K
calibration step has the effect of adding 512 or subtracting 256
oscillator cycles for every 125,829,120 actual oscillator cycles.
That is 4.068 or –2.034 ppm of adjustment in accordance with
calibration step in the calibration register.
In order to determine how to set the calibration one may set
the CAL bit in the flags register at 0x1FFF0 to 1, which causes
the INT pin to toggle at a nominal 512 Hz. Any deviation
measured from the 512 Hz indicates the degree and direction
of the required correction. For example, a reading of
512.010124 Hz would indicate a +20 ppm error, requiring a
–10 (001010) to be loaded into the calibration register. Note
that setting or changing the calibration register does not affect
the frequency test output frequency.
Alarm
The alarm function compares user programmed values to the
corresponding time-of-day values. When a match occurs, the
alarm event occurs. The alarm drives an internal flag, AF, and
may drive the INT pin if desired.
There are four alarm match fields. They are date, hours,
minutes, and seconds. Each of these fields also has a match
bit that is used to determine if the field is used in the alarm
match logic. Setting the match bit to “0” indicates that the
corresponding field will be used in the match process.
Depending on the match bits, the alarm can occur as
specifically as one particular second on one day of the month,
or as frequently as once in accordance with second
continuously. The MSB of each alarm register is a match bit.
Selecting none of the match bits (all 1s) indicates that no
match is required. The alarm occurs every second. Setting the
match select bit for seconds to “0” causes the logic to match
the seconds alarm value to the current time of day. Since a
match occurs for only one value in accordance with minute,
the alarm occurs once in accordance with minute. Likewise,
setting the seconds and minutes match bits causes an exact
match of these values. Thus, an alarm occurs once in
accordance with hour. Setting seconds, minutes, and hours
causes a match once in accordance with day. Lastly, selecting
all match values causes an exact time and date match.
Selecting other bit combinations will not produce meaningful
results; however the alarm circuit should follow the functions
described.
There are two ways a user can detect an alarm event, by
reading the AF flag or monitoring the INT pin. The AF flag in
the flags register at 0x1FFF0 will indicate that a date and time
match has occurred. The AF bit will be set to 1 when a match
occurs. Reading the Flags/Control register clears the alarm
flag bit (and all others). A hardware interrupt pin may also be
used to detect an alarm event.
Watchdog Timer
The watchdog timer is a free running down counter that uses
the 32-Hz clock (31.25 ms) derived from the crystal oscillator.
The oscillator must be running for the watchdog to function. It
begins counting down from the value loaded in the watchdog
timer register.
The counter consists of a loadable register and a free-running
counter. On power up, the watchdog timeout value in register
0x1FFF7 is loaded into the counter load register. Counting
begins on power up and restarts from the loadable value any
time the watchdog strobe (WDS) bit is set to 1. The counter is

compared to the terminal value of 0. If the counter reaches this
value, it causes an internal flag and an optional interrupt
output. You can prevent the timeout interrupt by setting WDS
bit to 1 before the counter reaching 0. This causes the counter
to be reloaded with the watchdog timeout value and to be
restarted. As long as the user sets the WDS bit before the
counter reaching the terminal value, the interrupt and flag
never occurs.
Write new timeout values by setting the watchdog WRITE bit
to 0. When the WDW is 0 (from the previous operation), new
writes to the watchdog timeout value bits D5–D0 allow the
timeout value to be modified. When WDW is a 1, writes to bits
D5 – D0 will be ignored. The WDW function allows a user to
set the WDS bit without concern that the watchdog timer value
will be modified. A logical diagram of the watchdog timer is
shown in Figure 3. Note that setting the watchdog timeout
value to 0 would be otherwise meaningless and therefore
disables the watchdog function.
The output of the watchdog timer is a flag bit WDF that is set
if the watchdog is allowed to timeout. The flag is set upon a
watchdog timeout and cleared when the Flags/Control register
is READREAD by the user. The user can also enable an
optional interrupt source to drive the INT pin if the watchdog
timeout occurs.

Power Monitor
The CY14B101K provides a power management scheme with
power fail interrupt capability. It also controls the internal
switch to backup power for the clock and protects the memory
from low VCC access. The power monitor is based on an
internal band gap reference circuit that compares the VCC
voltage to various thresholds.
As described in the AutoStore section previously, when
VSWITCH is reached as VCC decays from power loss, a data
store operation is initiated from SRAM to the nonvolatile
elements, securing the last SRAM data state. Power is also
switched from VCC to the backup supply (battery or capacitor)
to operate the RTC oscillator.
When operating from the backup source no data may be read
or written and the clock functions are not available to the user.
The clock continues to operate in the background. Updated
clock data is available to the user after VCC has been restored

to the device and tHRECALL delay (see AutoStore/Power Up
RECALL on page 16) .
Interrupts
The CY14B101K provides three potential interrupt sources.
They include the watchdog timer, the power monitor, and the
clock/calendar alarm. Individually enable each and assign to
drive the INT pin. In addition, each has an associated flag bit
that the host processor can use to determine the cause of the
interrupt. Some of the sources have additional control bits that
determine functional behavior. In addition, the pin driver has
three bits that specify its behavior when an interrupt occurs.
The three interrupts each have a source and an enable. Both
the source and the enable must be active (true high) in order
to generate an interrupt output. Only one source is necessary
to drive the pin. The user can identify the source by reading
the Flags/Control register, which contains the flags associated
with each source. All flags are cleared to 0 when the register
is READ. The flags will be cleared only after a complete read
cycle (WE high); The power monitor has two programmable
settings that are explained in the power monitor section.
Once an interrupt source is active, the pin driver determines
the behavior of the output. It has two programmable settings
as shown in the following section. Pin driver control bits are
located in the Interrupts register.
According to the programming selections, the pin can be
driven in the backup mode for an alarm interrupt. In addition,
the pin can be an active LOW (open drain) or an active HIGH
(push pull) driver. If programmed for operation during backup
mode, it can only be active LOW. Lastly, the pin can provide a
one shot function so that the active condition is a pulse or a
level condition. In one shot mode, the pulse width is internally
fixed at approximately 200 ms. This mode is intended to reset
a host microcontroller. In level mode, the pin goes to its active
polarity until the Flags/Control register is read by the user. This
mode is intended to be used as an interrupt to a host
microcontroller. The Interrupt register is initialized to 00h. The
control bits are summarized as follows:
Watchdog Interrupt Enable – WIE. When set to 1, the
watchdog timer drives the INT pin as well as an internal flag
when a watchdog timeout occurs. When WIE is set to 0, the
watchdog timer affects only the internal flag.
Alarm Interrupt Enable – AIE. When set to 1, the alarm
match drives the INT pin as well as an internal flag. When set
to 0, the alarm match only affects to internal flag.
Power Fail Interrupt Enable – PFE. When set to 1, the power
fail monitor drives the pin as well as an internal flag. When set
to 0, the power fail monitor affects only the internal flag.
High/Low – H/L. When set to a 1, the INT pin is active high
and the driver mode is push-pull. The INT pin can drive high
only when VCC > VSWITCH. When set to a 0, the INT pin is
active LOW and the drive mode is open drain. Active LOW
(open drain) is operational even in battery backup mode.
Pulse/Level – P/L. When set to a 1 and an interrupt occurs,
the INT pin is driven for approximately 200 ms. When P/L is
set to a 0, the INT pin is driven high or low (determined by H/L)
until the Flags/Control register is READd.
When an enabled interrupt source activates the INT pin, an
external host can READ the Flags/Control register to
determine the cause. Remember that all flags will be cleared

when the register is READ. If the INT pin is programmed for
level mode, then the condition clears and the INT pin returns
to its inactive state. If the pin is programmed for pulse mode,
then reading the flag also clears the flag and the pin. The pulse
will not complete its specified duration if the Flags/Control
register is READ. If the INT pin is used as a host reset, then
the Flags/Control register should not be READ during a reset.
CY14B101K
During a power on reset with no battery, the interrupt register
is automatically loaded with the value 24h. This causes power
fail interrupt to be enabled with an active LOW pulse.
Flags Register – The Flags register has three flag bits: WDF,
AF, and PF. These flag bits are initialized to 00h. These flags
are set by the watchdog timeout, alarm match, or power fail
monitor respectively. The processor can either poll this register
or enable interrupts to be informed when a flag is set. The flags
are automatically reset once the register is READ.

Watchdog Strobe. Setting this bit to 1 reloads and restarts the watchdog timer. Setting the bit to 0 has no affect. The
bit is cleared automatically once the watchdog timer is reset. The WDS bit is WRITE only. Reading it always returns
a 0.
WDW
Watchdog Write Enable. Setting this bit to 1 masks the watchdog timeout value (WDT5–WDT0) so it cannot be
written. This allows the user to strobe the watchdog without disturbing the timeout value. Setting this bit to 0 allows
bits 5 – 0 to be written on the next WRITE to the watchdog register. The new value will be loaded on the next internal
watchdog clock after the WRITE cycle is complete. This function is explained in more detail in the watchdog timer
section.
WDT
Watchdog timeout selection. The watchdog timer interval is selected by the 6-bit value in this register. It represents
a multiplier of the 32 Hz count (31.25 ms). The minimum range or timeout value is 31.25 ms (a setting of 1) and the
maximum timeout is 2 seconds (setting of 3 Fh). Setting the watchdog timer register to 0 disables the timer. These
bits can be written only if the WDW bit was cleared to 0 on a previous cycle.

normal operation. This bit defaults to 0 (disabled) on power up.
W
Write Time. Setting the W bit to 1 freeze updates of the timekeeping registers. The user can then WRITE them with
updated values. Setting the W bit to 0 causes the contents of the time registers to be transferred to the timekeeping

R
READ Time. Setting the R bit to 1 copies a static image of the timekeeping registers and places them in a holding
register. The user can then READ them without concerns over changing values causing system errors. The R bit
going from 0 to 1 causes the timekeeping capture, so the bit must be returned to 0 before reading again.

Notes
11. WE must be HIGH during SRAM READ cycles.
12. Device is continuously selected with CE and OE both low.
13. Measured ±200 mV from steady state output voltage.
14. If WE is low when CE goes low, the outputs remain in the high impedance state.
15. tHRECALL starts from the time VCC rises above VSWITCH.
16. If an SRAM WRITE has not taken place since the last nonvolatile cycle, no STORE takes place.
17. Industrial grade devices require 15 ms max.

Notes
18. The software sequence is clocked with CE controlled or OE controlled READs.
19. The six consecutive addresses must be READ in the order listed in the mode selection table. WE must be HIGH during all six consecutive cycles.
20. A 600Ω resistor must be connected to HSB to use the software command.
21. This is the amount of time it takes to take action on a soft sequence command. Vcc power must remain HIGH to effectively register the command.
22. Commands like STORE and RECALL lock out IO until operation is complete which further increases this time. See the specific command.
23. READ and WRITE cycles in progress before HSB are given this amount of time to complete.
24. From either VRTCcap or VRTCbat.
25. Typical = 3.0V during normal operation.
26. Typical = 2.4V during normal operation.
