DESCRIPTION
The DS1250 4096k Nonvolatile SRAMs are 4,194,304-bit, fully static, nonvolatile SRAMs organized as
524,288 words by 8 bits. Each complete 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. DIP-package DS1250 devices can be used in place of existing 512k x
8 static RAMs directly conforming to the popular byte-wide 32-pin DIP standard. DS1250 devices in the
PowerCap Module package are directly surface mountable and are normally paired with a DS9034PC
PowerCap to form a complete Nonvolatile SRAM module. 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 DS1250 executes 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 19 address inputs (A0 A18) defines which of the 524,288 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
CE and OE (Output Enable) access times are also satisfied. If OE and CE access times are not satisfied,
then data access must be measured from the later-occurring signal ( CE or OE ) and the limiting parameter
is either tCO for CE or tOE for OE rather than address access.
WRITE MODE
The DS1250 executes a write cycle whenever the WE and CE signals are active (low) after address
inputs are stable. The later-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 DS1250AB provides full functional capability for VCC greater than 4.75 volts and write protects by
4.5 volts. The DS1250Y provides full functional capability for VCC greater than 4.5 volts and write
protects by 4.25 volts. 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 highimpedance. 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 DS1250AB and 4.5 volts for the
DS1250Y.
FRESHNESS SEAL
Each DS1250 device is shipped from Maxim with its lithium energy source disconnected, guaranteeing
full energy capacity. When VCC is first applied at a level greater than 4.25 volts, the lithium energy source
is enabled for battery back-up operation.

PACKAGES
The DS1250 is available in two packages: 32-pin DIP and 34-pin PowerCap Module (PCM). The 32-pin
DIP integrates a lithium battery, an SRAM memory and a nonvolatile control function into a single
package with a JEDEC-standard 600-mil DIP pinout. The 34-pin PowerCap Module integrates SRAM
memory and nonvolatile control into a module base along with contacts for connection to the lithium
battery in the DS9034PC PowerCap. The PowerCap Module package design allows a DS1250 PCM
device to be surface mounted without subjecting its lithium backup battery to destructive hightemperature reflow soldering. After a DS1250 PCM module base is reflow soldered, a DS9034PC
PowerCap is snapped on top of the PCM to form a complete Nonvolatile SRAM module. The DS9034PC
is keyed to prevent improper attachment. DS1250 module bases and DS9034PC PowerCaps are ordered
separately and shipped in separate containers. See the DS9034PC data sheet for further information.

WARNING:
Under no circumstance are negative undershoots, of any amplitude, allowed when device is in 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 WE
going low to the earlier of CE or WE going high.
4. tDH, tDS are 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 latter than the WE low transition, the output
buffers remain in a high-impedance state during this period.
7. If the CE high transition occurs prior to or simultaneously with the WE high transition, the output
buffers remain in 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 DS1250 has a built-in switch that disconnects the lithium source until the user first applies VCC.
The expected tDR is defined as accumulative time in the absence of VCC starting from the time power
is first applied by the user. This parameter is assured by component selection, process control, and
design. It is not measured directly during production testing.
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 and tDH1 are measured from WE going high.
13. tWR2 and tDH2 are measured from CE going high.
14. DS1250 modules are recognized by Underwriters Laboratories (UL) under file E99151.
