Overview
The Cypress CY14X101PA combines a 1 Mbit nvSRAM[1] with a
full-featured RTC in a monolithic integrated circuit with serial SPI
interface. The memory is organized as 128 K words of 8 bits
each. The embedded nonvolatile elements incorporate the
QuantumTrap technology, creating the world’s most reliable
nonvolatile memory. The SRAM provides infinite read and write
cycles, while the QuantumTrap cells provide highly reliable
nonvolatile storage of data. Data transfers from SRAM to the
nonvolatile elements (STORE operation) takes place
automatically at power-down. On power-up, data is restored to
the SRAM from the nonvolatile memory (RECALL operation).
You can also initiate the STORE and RECALL operations
through SPI instruction.

Device Operation
SRAM Read
CY14X101PA is a 1-Mbit SPI nvSRAM memory with integrated
RTC and SPI interface. All the reads and writes to nvSRAM
happen to the SRAM, which gives nvSRAM the unique capability
to handle infinite writes to the memory. The data in SRAM is
secured by a STORE sequence that transfers the data in parallel
to the nonvolatile QuantumTrap cells. A small capacitor (VCAP)
is used to AutoStore the SRAM data in nonvolatile cells when
power goes down providing power-down data security. The
QuantumTrap nonvolatile elements built in the reliable SONOS
technology make nvSRAM the ideal choice for secure data
storage.
In CY14X101PA, the 1-Mbit memory array is organized as
128 K words × 8 bits. The memory can be accessed through a
standard SPI interface that enables very high clock speeds up to
40 MHz with zero cycle delay read and write cycles. This
nvSRAM chip also supports an SPI access speed of 104 MHz,
with a special instruction for read operation. CY14X101PA
supports SPI modes 0 and 3 (CPOL, CPHA = 0, 0 and 1, 1) and
operates as SPI slave. The device is enabled using the Chip
Select (CS) pin and accessed through Serial Input (SI), Serial
Output (SO), and Serial Clock (SCK) pins.
CY14X101PA provides the feature for hardware and software
write protection through the WP pin and WRDI instruction.
CY14X101PA also provides mechanisms for block write
protection (1/4, 1/2, or full array) using BP0 and BP1 pins in the
Status Register. Further, the HOLD pin is used to suspend any
serial communication without resetting the serial sequence.
CY14X101PA uses the standard SPI opcodes for memory
access. In addition to the general SPI instructions for read and
write, CY14X101PA provides four special instructions that allow
access to four nvSRAM specific functions: STORE, RECALL,
AutoStore Disable (ASDISB), and AutoStore Enable (ASENB).
The major benefit of nvSRAM over serial EEPROMs is that all
reads and writes to nvSRAM are performed at the speed of SPI
bus with zero cycle delay. Therefore, no wait time is required
after any of the memory accesses. The STORE and RECALL
operations need finite time to complete and all memory accesses
are inhibited during this time. While a STORE or RECALL
operation is in progress, the busy status of the device is indicated
by the Hardware STORE Busy (HSB) pin and also reflected on
the RDY bit of the Status Register.
A read cycle is performed at the SPI bus speed. The data is read
out with zero cycle delay after the READ instruction is executed.
The READ instruction can be used up to 40 MHz clock speed.
The READ instruction is issued through the SI pin of the nvSRAM
and consists of the READ opcode and three bytes of address.
The data is read out on the SO pin.
Speeds higher than 40 MHz (up to 104 MHz) require a
FAST_READ instruction. The FAST_READ instruction is issued
through the SI pin of the nvSRAM and consists of the
FAST_READ opcode, three bytes of address, and one dummy
byte. The data is read out on the SO pin.
CY14X101PA enables burst mode reads to be performed
through SPI. This enables reads on consecutive addresses
without issuing a new READ instruction. When the last address
in memory is reached in burst mode read, the address rolls over
to 0x00000 and the device continues to read.
The SPI read cycle sequence is defined in the Memory Access
section of SPI Protocol Description
SRAM Write
All writes to nvSRAM are carried out on the SRAM and do not
use up any endurance cycles of the nonvolatile memory. This
allows you to perform infinite write operations. A write cycle is
performed through the WRITE instruction. The WRITE
instruction is issued through the SI pin of the nvSRAM and
consists of the WRITE opcode, three bytes of address, and one
byte of data. Write to nvSRAM is done at SPI bus speed with zero
cycle delay.
CY14X101PA allows burst mode writes to be performed through
SPI. This enables write operations on consecutive addresses
without issuing a new WRITE instruction. When the last address
in memory is reached in burst mode, the address rolls over to
0x00000 and the device continues to write.
The SPI write cycle sequence is defined in the Memory Access
section of SPI Protocol Description.
Document Number: 001-54392 Rev. *J
STORE Operation
STORE operation transfers the data from the SRAM to the
nonvolatile QuantumTrap cells. The CY14X101PA STOREs data
to the nonvolatile cells using one of the three STORE operations:
AutoStore, activated on device power-down; Software STORE,
activated by a STORE instruction; and Hardware STORE,
activated by the HSB. During the STORE cycle, an erase of the
previous nonvolatile data is first performed, followed by a
program of the nonvolatile elements. After a STORE cycle is
initiated, read/write to CY14X101PA is inhibited until the cycle is
completed.
The HSB signal or the RDY bit in the Status Register can be
monitored by the system to detect if a STORE or Software
RECALL cycle is in progress. The busy status of nvSRAM is
indicated by HSB being pulled LOW or RDY bit being set to ‘1’.
To avoid unnecessary nonvolatile STOREs, AutoStore and
Hardware STORE operations are ignored unless at least one
write operation took place since the most recent STORE or
RECALL cycle. However, software initiated STORE cycles are
performed regardless of whether a write operation has taken
place.
AutoStore Operation
The AutoStore operation is a unique feature of nvSRAM which
automatically stores the SRAM data to QuantumTrap cells
during power-down. This STORE makes use of an external
capacitor (VCAP) and enables the device to safely STORE the
data in the nonvolatile memory when power goes down.
During normal operation, the device draws current from VCC to
charge the capacitor connected to the VCAP pin. When the
voltage on the VCC pin drops below VSWITCH during power-down,
the device inhibits all memory accesses to nvSRAM and
automatically performs a conditional STORE operation using the
charge from the VCAP capacitor. The AutoStore operation is not
initiated if no write cycle has been performed since last RECALL.
Note If a capacitor is not connected to VCAP pin, AutoStore must
be disabled by issuing the AutoStore Disable instruction
(AutoStore Disable (ASDISB) Instruction on page 17). If
AutoStore is enabled without a capacitor on the VCAP pin, the
device attempts an AutoStore operation without sufficient charge

CY14E101PA
to complete the Store. This corrupts the data stored in nvSRAM,
Status Register, and the serial number, and it unlocks the SNL
bit. To resume normal functionality, the WRSR instruction must
be issued to update the nonvolatile bits BP0, BP1, and WPEN in
the Status Register.
Figure 2 shows the proper connection of the storage capacitor
(VCAP) for AutoStore operation. Refer to DC Electrical
Characteristics on page 30 for the size of the VCAP.

Software STORE Operation
Software STORE allows the user to trigger a STORE operation
through a special SPI instruction. STORE operation is initiated
by executing a STORE instruction regardless of whether or not
a write has been performed since the last NV operation.
A STORE cycle takes tSTORE time to complete, during which all
the memory accesses to nvSRAM are inhibited. The RDY bit of
the Status Register or the HSB pin may be polled to find the
Ready/Busy status of the nvSRAM. After the tSTORE cycle time
is completed, the SRAM is activated again for read and write
operations.
Hardware STORE and HSB pin Operation
The HSB pin in CY14X101PA is used to control and
acknowledge STORE operations. If no STORE/RECALL is in
progress, this pin can be used to request a Hardware STORE
cycle. When the HSB pin is driven LOW, the CY14X101PA
conditionally initiates a STORE operation after tDELAY duration.
A STORE cycle starts only if a write to the SRAM has been
performed since the last STORE or RECALL cycle. Reads and
Writes to the memory are inhibited for tSTORE duration or as long
as HSB pin is LOW. The HSB pin also acts as an open drain
driver (internal 100 kΩ weak pull up resistor) that is internally
driven LOW to indicate a busy condition when the STORE
(initiated by any means) is in progress.
Note After each Hardware and Software STORE operation, HSB
is driven HIGH for a short time (tHHHD) with standard output high
current and then remains HIGH by an internal 100 kΩ pull-up
resistor.
Document Number: 001-54392 Rev. *J
RECALL Operation
Internally, RECALL is a two step procedure. First, the SRAM data
is cleared. Next, the nonvolatile information is transferred into the
SRAM cells. All memory accesses are inhibited while a RECALL
cycle is in progress. The RECALL operation does not alter the
data in the nonvolatile elements.
VCC
VSS
Upon completion of the STORE operation, the nvSRAM memory
access is inhibited for tLZHSB time after HSB pin returns HIGH.
The HSB pin must be left unconnected if not used.
A RECALL operation transfers the data stored in the nonvolatile
QuantumTrap elements to the SRAM. In CY14X101PA, a
RECALL may be initiated in two ways: Hardware RECALL,
initiated on power-up and Software RECALL, initiated by a SPI
RECALL instruction.
Figure 2. AutoStore Mode
CS
Note For successful last data byte STORE, a hardware STORE
should be initiated at least one clock cycle after the last data bit
D0 is received.
During power-up, when VCC crosses VSWITCH, an automatic
RECALL sequence is initiated, which transfers the content of
nonvolatile memory on to the SRAM. The data would have been
previously stored on the nonvolatile memory through a STORE
sequence.
A Power-Up RECALL cycle takes tFA time to complete and the
memory access is disabled during this time. The HSB pin is used
to detect the Ready status of the device.
Software RECALL
Software RECALL allows you to initiate a RECALL operation to
restore the content of nonvolatile memory on to the SRAM. In
CY14X101PA, this can be done by issuing a RECALL instruction
in SPI.
A Software RECALL takes tRECALL time to complete during
which all memory accesses to nvSRAM are inhibited. The
controller must provide sufficient delay for the RECALL operation
to complete before issuing any memory access instructions.
Disabling and Enabling AutoStore
If the application does not require the AutoStore feature, it can
be disabled in CY14X101PA by using the ASDISB instruction. If
this is done, the nvSRAM does not perform a STORE operation
at power-down.
AutoStore can be re-enabled by using the ASENB instruction.
However, these operations are not nonvolatile and if you need
this setting to survive the power cycle, a STORE operation must
be performed following AutoStore Disable or Enable operation.
Note CY14X101PA comes from the factory with AutoStore
Enabled.
Note If AutoStore is disabled and VCAP is not required, then the
VCAP pin must be left open. The VCAP pin must never be
connected to ground. The Power Up RECALL operation cannot
be disabled in any case.

Serial Peripheral Interface
Serial Clock (SCK)
SPI Overview
Serial clock is generated by the SPI master and the
communication is synchronized with this clock after CS goes
LOW.
The SPI is a four-pin interface with Chip Select (CS), Serial Input
(SI), Serial Output (SO), and Serial Clock (SCK) pins.
CY14X101PA provides serial access to nvSRAM through SPI
interface. The SPI bus on CY14X101PA can run at speeds up to
104 MHz except RDRTC and READ instruction.
The SPI is a synchronous serial interface, which uses clock and
data pins for memory access and supports multiple devices on
the data bus. An SPI bus device is activated using the CS pin.
The relationship between chip select, clock, and data is dictated
by the SPI mode. CY14X101PA supports SPI modes 0 and 3. In
both these modes, data is clocked in the nvSRAM on the rising
edge of SCK starting from the first rising edge after CS goes
active.
The SPI protocol is controlled by opcodes. These opcodes
specify the commands from the bus master to the slave device.
After CS is activated, the first byte transferred from the bus
master is the opcode. Following the opcode, any addresses and
data are then transferred. The CS must go inactive after an
operation is complete and before a new opcode can be issued.
The commonly used terms used in SPI protocol are given below:
SPI Master
The SPI master device controls the operations on a SPI bus. A
SPI bus may have only one master with one or more slave
devices. All the slaves share the same SPI bus lines and the
master may select any of the slave devices using the CS pin. All
the operations must be initiated by the master activating a slave
device by pulling the CS pin of the slave LOW. The master also
generates the SCK and all the data transmission on SI and SO
lines are synchronized with this clock.
SPI Slave
The SPI slave device is activated by the master through the Chip
Select line. A slave device gets the SCK as an input from the SPI
master and all the communication is synchronized with this
clock. SPI slave never initiates a communication on the SPI bus
and acts on the instruction from the master.
CY14X101PA operates as a slave device and may share the SPI
bus with multiple CY14X101PA devices or other SPI devices.
Chip Select (CS)
CY14X101PA allows SPI modes 0 and 3 for data
communication. In both these modes, the inputs are latched by
the slave device on the rising edge of SCK and outputs are
issued on the falling edge. Therefore, the first rising edge of SCK
signifies the arrival of the first bit (MSB) of SPI instruction on the
SI pin. Further, all data inputs and outputs are synchronized with
SCK.
Data Transmission SI/SO
SPI data bus consists of two lines, SI and SO, for serial data
communication. The SI is also referred to as Master Out Slave
In (MOSI) and SO is referred to as Master In Slave Out (MISO).
The master issues instructions to the slave through the SI pin,
while the slave responds through the SO pin. Multiple slave
devices may share the SI and SO lines as described earlier.
CY14X101PA has two separate pins for SI and SO, which can
be connected with the master as shown in Figure 3 on page 7.
Most Significant Bit (MSB)
The SPI protocol requires that the first bit to be transmitted is the
Most Significant Bit (MSB). This is valid for both address and
data transmission.
CY14X101PA requires a 3-byte address for any read or write
operation. However, because the address is only 17 bits, it
implies that the first seven bits that are fed in are ignored by the
device. Although these seven bits are ‘don’t care’, Cypress
recommends that these bits are treated as 0s to enable
seamless transition to higher memory densities.
Serial Opcode
After the slave device is selected with CS going LOW, the first
byte received is treated as the opcode for the intended operation.
CY14X101PA uses the standard opcodes for memory accesses.
In addition to the memory accesses, CY14X101PA provides
additional opcodes for the nvSRAM specific functions: STORE,
RECALL, AutoStore Enable, and AutoStore Disable. Refer to
Table 1 on page 9 for details on opcodes.
Invalid Opcode
If an invalid opcode is received, the opcode is ignored and the
device ignores any additional serial data on the SI pin until the
next falling edge of CS and the SO pin remains tri-stated.
For selecting any slave device, the master needs to pull down
the corresponding CS pin. Any instruction can be issued to a
slave device only while the CS pin is LOW.
Status Register
The CY14X101PA is selected when the CS pin is LOW. When
the device is not selected, data through the SI pin is ignored and
the serial output pin (SO) remains in a high-impedance state.
CY14X101PA has an 8-bit Status Register. The bits in the Status
Register are used to configure the SPI bus. These bits are
described in the Table 3 on page 10.
Note A new instruction must begin with the falling edge of CS.
Therefore, only one opcode can be issued for each active Chip
Select cycle.

SPI Modes
CY14X101PA device may be driven by a microcontroller with its
SPI peripheral running in either of these two modes:
■
SPI Mode 0 (CPOL = 0, CPHA = 0)
■
SPI Mode 3 (CPOL = 1, CPHA = 1)
The two SPI modes are shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5. The
status of clock when the bus master is in standby mode and not
transferring data is:
■
SCK remains at 0 for Mode 0
■
For both these modes, the input data is latched in on the rising
edge of SCK starting from the first rising edge after CS goes
active. If the clock starts from a high state (in mode 3), the first
rising edge after the clock toggles is considered. The output data
is available on the falling edge of SCK.
SCK remains at 1 for Mode 3
CPOL and CPHA bits must be set in the SPI controller for the
either Mode 0 or Mode 3. CY14X101PA detects the SPI mode
from the status of SCK pin when device is selected by bringing
the CS pin LOW. If SCK pin is LOW when the device is selected,
SPI Mode 0 is assumed and if SCK pin is HIGH, CY14X101PA
works in SPI Mode 3.

SPI Operating Features
Power-Down
■
Selected (Active power mode) if CS pin is LOW
■
Deselected (Standby power mode) if CS pin is HIGH
At power-down (continuous decay of VCC), when VCC drops from
the normal operating voltage and below the VSWITCH threshold
voltage, the device stops responding to any instruction sent to it.
If a write cycle is in progress and the last data bit D0 has been
received when the power goes down, it is allowed tDELAY time to
complete the write. After this, all memory accesses are inhibited
and a conditional AutoStore operation is performed (AutoStore is
not performed if no writes have happened since the last RECALL
cycle). This feature prevents inadvertent writes to nvSRAM from
happening during power-down. However, to avoid the possibility
of inadvertent writes during power-down, ensure that the device
is deselected and is in standby power mode and the CS follows
the voltage applied on VCC.
■
Not in the Hold condition
Active Power and Standby Power Modes
Power-Up
Power-up is defined as the condition when the power supply is
turned on and VCC crosses Vswitch voltage.
As described earlier, at power-up nvSRAM performs a Power-Up
RECALL operation for tFA duration during which, all memory
accesses are disabled. The HSB pin can be probed to check the
Ready/Busy status of nvSRAM after power-up.
The following are the device status after power-up:
■
Status Register state:
❐ Write Enable (WEN) bit is reset to ‘0’.
❐ WPEN, BP1, BP0 unchanged from previous STORE
operation
The WPEN, BP1, and BP0 bits of the Status Register are
nonvolatile bits and remain unchanged from the previous
STORE operation.
Document Number: 001-54392 Rev. *J
When CS is LOW, the device is selected and is in the active
power mode. The device consumes ICC current, as specified in
DC Electrical Characteristics on page 30. When CS is HIGH, the
device is deselected and the device goes into the standby power
mode after tSB time if a STORE or RECALL cycle is not in
progress. If a STORE/RECALL cycle is in progress, the device
goes into the standby power mode after the STORE/RECALL
cycle is completed. In the standby power mode the current drawn
by the device drops to ISB.

SPI Functional Description
The CY14X101PA uses an 8-bit instruction register. Instructions and their operation codes are listed in Table 1. All instructions,
addresses, and data are transferred with the MSB first and start with a HIGH to LOW CS transition. There are, in all, 21 SPI instructions
that provide access to most of the functions in nvSRAM. Further, the WP, HOLD, and HSB pins provide additional functionality driven
through hardware.

Status Register
The Status Register bits are listed in Table 2. The Status Register
consists of a Ready bit (RDY) and data protection bits BP1, BP0,
WEN, and WPEN. The RDY bit can be polled to check the
Ready/Busy status while a nvSRAM STORE or Software
RECALL cycle is in progress. The Status Register can be
modified by WRSR instruction and read by RDSR or
FAST_RDSR instruction. However, only the WPEN, BP1, and
BP0 bits of the Status Register can be modified by using the
WRSR instruction. The WRSR instruction has no effect on WEN
and RDY bits. The default value shipped from the factory for
WEN, BP0, BP1, bits 4–5, SNL and WPEN is ‘0’.
SNL (bit 6) of the Status Register is used to lock the serial
number written using the WRSN instruction. The serial number
can be written using the WRSN instruction multiple times while
this bit is still '0'. When set to ‘1’, this bit prevents any modification
to the serial number. This bit is factory programmed to ‘0’ and
can only be written to once. After this bit is set to ‘1’, it can never
be cleared to ‘0’.

Description
Bit 0 (RDY)
Ready
Read only bit indicates the ready status of device to perform a memory access. This bit is
set to ‘1’ by the device while a STORE or Software RECALL cycle is in progress.
Bit 1 (WEN)
Write Enable
WEN indicates if the device is write enabled. This bit defaults to 0 (disabled) on power-up.
WEN = ‘1’ --> Write enabled
WEN = ‘0’ --> Write disabled
Bit 2 (BP0)
Block Protect bit ‘0’
Used for block protection. For details see Table 4 on page 12.
Bit 3 (BP1)
Block Protect bit ‘1’
Used for block protection. For details see Table 4 on page 12.
Bit 4–5
Don’t care
These bits are non-writable and always return ‘0’ upon read.
Bit 6 (SNL)
Serial Number Lock
Set to '1' for locking serial number
Bit 7(WPEN)
Write Protect Enable bit Used for enabling the function of Write Protect Pin (WP). For details see Table 5 on page 12.
Read Status Register (RDSR) Instruction
The Read Status Register instruction provides access to the
Status Register at SPI frequency up to 40 MHz. This instruction
is used to probe the Write Enable status of the device or the
Ready status of the device. RDY bit is set by the device to ‘1’
whenever a STORE or Software RECALL cycle is in progress.
The block protection and WPEN bits indicate the extent of
protection employed.
This instruction is issued after the falling edge of CS using the
opcode for RDSR.
Fast Read Status Register (FAST_RDSR) Instruction
The FAST_RDSR instruction allows you to read the Status
Register at SPI frequency above 40 MHz and up to 104 MHz
(max).This instruction is used to probe the Write Enable status
of the device or the Ready status of the device. RDY bit is set by
the device to ‘1’ whenever a STORE or Software RECALL cycle
is in progress. The block protection and WPEN bits indicate the
extent of protection employed.
Document Number: 001-54392 Rev. *J
This instruction is issued after the falling edge of CS using the
opcode for RDSR followed by a dummy byte.
Write Status Register (WRSR) Instruction
The WRSR instruction enables the user to write to the Status
Register. However, this instruction cannot be used to modify bit
0 (RDY), bit 1 (WEN) and bits 4–5. The BP0 and BP1 bits can be
used to select one of four levels of block protection. Further,
WPEN bit must be set to ‘1’ to enable the use of Write Protect
(WP) pin.
WRSR instruction is a write instruction and needs writes to be
enabled (WEN bit set to ‘1’) using the WREN instruction before
it is issued. The instruction is issued after the falling edge of CS
using the opcode for WRSR followed by eight bits of data to be
stored in the Status Register. WRSR instruction can be used to
modify only bits 2, 3, 6, and 7 of the Status Register.
Note In CY14X101PA, the values written to Status Register are
saved to nonvolatile memory only after a STORE operation. If
AutoStore is disabled, any modifications to the Status Register
must be secured by performing a Software STORE operation.

Write Protection and Block Protection
CY14X101PA provides features for both software and hardware
write protection using WRDI instruction and WP. Additionally, this
device also provides block protection mechanism through BP0
and BP1 pins of the Status Register.
The write enable and disable status of the device is indicated by
WEN bit of the Status Register. The write instructions (WRSR,
WRITE, WRTC and WRSN) and nvSRAM special instruction
(STORE, RECALL, ASENB, ASDISB) need the write to be
enabled (WEN bit = ‘1’) before they can be issued.
Write Enable (WREN) Instruction
On power-up, the device is always in the write disable state. The
following WRITE, WRSR, WRTC, WRSN, or nvSRAM special
instruction must therefore be preceded by a Write Enable
instruction. If the device is not write enabled (WEN = ‘0’), it
ignores the write instructions and returns to the standby state
when CS is brought HIGH. A new CS falling edge is required to
re-initiate serial communication. The instruction is issued
following the falling edge of CS. When this instruction is used,
the WEN bit of Status Register is set to ‘1’. WEN bit defaults to
‘0’ on power-up.
Note After completion of a write instruction (WRSR, WRITE,
WRTC or WRSN) or nvSRAM special instruction (STORE,
RECALL, ASENB, ASDISB), the WEN bit is cleared to ‘0’. This
provides protection from any inadvertent writes. Therefore, the
WREN instruction must be used before a new write instruction
can be issued.

WP pin can be used along with WPEN and Block Protect bits
(BP1 and BP0) of the Status Register to inhibit writes to memory.
When WP pin is LOW and WPEN is set to ‘1’, any modifications
to Status Register are disabled. Therefore, the memory is
protected by setting the BP0 and BP1 bits and the WP pin inhibits
any modification of the Status Register bits, providing hardware
write protection.

Block Protection
Block protection is provided using the BP0 and BP1 pins of the
Status Register. These bits can be set using WRSR instruction
and probed using the RDSR instruction. The nvSRAM is divided
into four array segments. One-quarter, one-half, or all of the
memory segments can be protected. Any data within the
protected segment is read only. Table 4 shows the function of
Block Protect bits.

Hardware Write Protection (WP Pin)
The write protect pin (WP) is used to provide hardware write
protection. WP pin enables all normal read and write operations
when held HIGH. When the WP pin is brought LOW and WPEN
bit is ‘1’, all write operations to the Status Register are inhibited.
The hardware write protection function is blocked when the
WPEN bit is ‘0’. This allows you to install the device in a system
with the WP pin tied to ground, and still write to the Status
Register.
Document Number: 001-54392 Rev. *J
All memory accesses are done using the READ and WRITE
instructions. These instructions cannot be used while a STORE
or RECALL cycle is in progress. A STORE cycle in progress is
indicated by the RDY bit of the Status Register and the HSB pin.
Read Sequence (READ) Instruction
The read operations on CY14X101PA are performed by giving
the instruction on the SI pin and reading the output on SO pin.
The following sequence needs to be followed for a read
operation: After the CS line is pulled LOW to select a device, the
read opcode is transmitted through the SI line followed by three
bytes of address. The most significant address byte contains
A16 in bit 0 and other bits as don’t cares. Address bits A15 to A0
are sent in the following two address bytes. After the last address
bit is transmitted on the SI pin, the data (D7–D0) at the specific
address is shifted out on the SO line on the falling edge of SCK
starting with D7. Any other data on SI line after the last address
bit is ignored.
CY14X101PA allows reads to be performed in bursts through
SPI which can be used to read consecutive addresses without
issuing a new READ instruction. If only one byte is to be read,
the CS line must be driven HIGH after one byte of data comes
out. However, the read sequence may be continued by holding
the CS line LOW and the address is automatically incremented
and data continues to shift out on SO pin. When the last data
memory address (0x1FFFF) is reached, the address rolls over to
0x00000 and the device continues to read.
Note READ instruction operates up to Max of 40 MHz SPI
frequency.
Fast Read Sequence (FAST_READ) Instruction
The FAST_READ instruction allows you to read memory at SPI
frequency above 40 MHz and up to 104 MHz (Max). The host
system must first select the device by driving CS LOW, the
FAST_READ instruction is then written to SI, followed by 3
address byte containing the17 bit address (A16–A0) and then a
dummy byte.
Page 12 of 43
CY14C101PA
CY14B101PA
CY14E101PA
which is to be written. The most significant address byte contains
A16 in bit 0 with other bits being don’t cares. Address bits A15 to
A0 are sent in the following two address bytes.
From the subsequent falling edge of the SCK, the data of the
specific address is shifted out serially on the SO line starting with
MSB. The first byte specified can be at any location. The device
automatically increments to the next higher address after each
byte of data is output. The entire memory array can therefore be
read with a single FAST_READ instruction. When the highest
address in the memory array is reached, address counter rolls
over to start address 0x00000 and thus allowing the read
sequence to continue indefinitely. The FAST_READ instruction
is terminated by driving CS HIGH at any time during data output.
CY14X101PA allows writes to be performed in bursts through
SPI which can be used to write consecutive addresses without
issuing a new WRITE instruction. If only one byte is to be written,
the CS line must be driven HIGH after the D0 (LSB of data) is
transmitted. However, if more bytes are to be written, CS line
must be held LOW and address incremented automatically. The
following bytes on the SI line are treated as data bytes and
written in the successive addresses. When the last data memory
address (0x1FFFF) is reached, the address rolls over to 0x00000
and the device continues to write.
Note FAST_READ instruction operates up to maximum of
104 MHz SPI frequency.
Write Sequence (WRITE) Instruction
The WEN bit is reset to ‘0’ on completion of a WRITE sequence.
The write operations on CY14X101PA are performed through the
SI pin. To perform a write operation, if the device is write
disabled, then the device must first be write enabled through the
WREN instruction. When the writes are enabled (WEN = ‘1’),
WRITE instruction is issued after the falling edge of CS. A
WRITE instruction constitutes transmitting the WRITE opcode
on SI line followed by 3-bytes of address and the data (D7–D0)
Note When a burst write reaches a protected block address, it
continues the address increment into the protected space but
does not write any data to the protected memory. If the address
roll over takes the burst write to unprotected space, it resumes
writes. The same operation is true if a burst write is initiated
within a write protected block.

RTC Access
The ‘R’ bit in RTC flags register must be set to ‘1’ before reading
RTC time keeping registers to avoid reading transitional data.
Modifying the RTC flag registers requires a Write RTC cycle. The
R bit must be cleared to '0' after completion of the read operation.
CY14X101PA uses 16 registers for RTC. These registers can be
read out or written to by accessing all 16 registers in burst mode
or accessing each register, one at a time. The RDRTC,
FAST_RDRTC, and WRTC instructions are used to access the
RTC.
The easiest way to read RTC registers is to perform RDRTC in
burst mode. The read may start from the first RTC register (0x00)
and the CS must be held LOW to allow the data from all 16 RTC
registers to be transmitted through the SO pin.
Note RDRTC instruction operates at a maximum clock
frequency of 25 MHz. The opcode cycles, address cycles and
data out cycles need to run at 25 MHz for the instruction to work
properly.
All the RTC registers can be read in burst mode by issuing the
RDRTC and FAST_RDRTC instruction and reading all 16 bytes
without bringing the CS pin HIGH. The ‘R’ bit must be set while
reading the RTC timekeeping registers to ensure that transitional
values of time are not read.
Writes to the RTC register are performed using the WRTC
instruction. Writing RTC timekeeping registers and control
registers, except for the flags register needs the ‘W’ bit of the
flags register to be set to ‘1’. The internal counters are updated
with the new date and time setting when the ‘W’ bit is cleared to
‘0’. All the RTC registers can also be written in burst mode using
the WRTC instruction.
Fast Read Sequence (FAST_RDRTC) Instruction
The FAST_RDRTC instruction allows you to read memory at a
SPI frequency above 25 MHz and up to 104 MHz (Max). The host
system must first select the device by driving CS LOW, the
FAST_READ instruction is then written to SI, followed by 8 bit
address and a dummy byte.
From the subsequent falling edge of the SCK, the data of the
specific address is shifted out serially on the SO line starting with
MSB. The first byte specified can be at any location. The device
automatically increments to the next higher address after each
byte of data is output. The entire memory array can therefore be
read with a single FAST_RDRTC instruction. When the highest
address (0x0F) in the memory array is reached, the address
counter rolls over to start address 0x00 and thus allowing the
read sequence to continue indefinitely. The FAST_RDRTC
instruction is terminated by driving CS HIGH at any time during
data output.
Note FAST_READ instruction operates up to Max of 104 MHz
SPI frequency.
READ RTC (RDRTC) Instruction
Read RTC (RDRTC) instruction allows you to read the contents
of RTC registers at SPI frequency upto 25 MHz. Reading the
RTC registers through the SO pin requires the following
sequence: After the CS line is pulled LOW to select a device, the
RDRTC opcode is transmitted through the SI line followed by
eight address bits for selecting the register. Any data on the SI
line after the address bits is ignored. The data (D7–D0) at the
specified address is then shifted out onto the SO line. RDRTC
also allows burst mode read operation. When reading multiple
bytes from RTC registers, the address rolls over to 0x00 after the
last RTC register address (0x0F) is reached.

writing more than one registers in burst mode, the address rolls
over to 0x00 after the last RTC address (0x0F) is reached.
WRITE RTC (WRTC) instruction allows you to modify the
contents of RTC registers. The WRTC instruction requires the
WEN bit to be set to '1' before it can be issued. If WEN bit is '0',
a WREN instruction needs to be issued before using WRTC.
Writing RTC registers requires the following sequence: After the
CS line is pulled LOW to select a device, WRTC opcode is
transmitted through the SI line followed by eight address bits
identifying the register which is to be written to and one or more
Note that writing to RTC timekeeping and control registers

SLEEP Instruction
SLEEP instruction puts the nvSRAM in sleep mode. When the
SLEEP instruction is issued, the nvSRAM takes tSS time to
process the SLEEP request. Once the SLEEP command is
successfully registered and processed, the nvSRAM toggles
HSB low, performs a STORE operation to secure the data to
nonvolatile memory and then enters into SLEEP mode. The
device starts consuming IZZ current after tSLEEP time from the
instance when SLEEP instruction is registered. The device is not
accessible for normal operations after SLEEP instruction is
issued. Once in sleep mode, the SCK and SI pins are ignored
and SO will be Hi-Z but device continues to monitor the CS pin.

Serial Number
The serial number is an 8-byte programmable memory space
provided to you to uniquely identify this device. It typically
consists of a two byte Customer ID, followed by five bytes of
unique serial number and one byte of CRC check. However,
nvSRAM does not calculate the CRC and it is up to the system
designer to utilize the eight byte memory space in whatever
manner desired. The default value for eight-byte locations are
set to ‘0x00’.
WRSN (Serial Number Write) Instruction
The serial number can be written using the WRSN instruction. To
write serial number the write must be enabled using the WREN
instruction. The WRSN instruction can be used in burst mode to
write all the 8 bytes of serial number.
The serial number is locked using the SNL bit of the Status
Register. Once this bit is set to '1', no modification to the serial
number is possible. After the SNL bit is set to '1', using the WRSN
instruction has no effect on the serial number.
A STORE operation (AutoStore or Software STORE) is required
to store the serial number in nonvolatile memory. If AutoStore is
disabled, you must perform a Software STORE operation to
secure and lock the serial number. If SNL bit is set to ‘1’ and is
not stored (AutoStore disabled), the SNL bit and serial number
defaults to ‘0’ at the next power cycle. If SNL bit is set to ‘1’ and
is stored, the SNL bit can never be cleared to ‘0’. This instruction
requires the WEN bit to be set before it can be executed. The
WEN bit is reset to '0' after completion of this instruction.
To wake the nvSRAM from the sleep mode, the device must be
selected by toggling the CS pin from HIGH to LOW. The device
wakes up and is accessible for normal operations after tWAKE
duration after a falling edge of CS pin is detected.

Real Time Clock Operation
nvTIME Operation
The CY14X101PA offers internal registers that contain clock,
alarm, watchdog, interrupt, and control functions. The RTC
registers occupy a separate address space from nvSRAM and
are accessible through the Read RTC register and Write RTC
register sequence on register addresses 0x00 to 0x0F. Internal
double buffering of the time keeping registers prevents
accessing transitional internal clock data during a read or write
operation. Double buffering also circumvents disrupting normal
timing counts or the clock accuracy of the internal clock when
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 time can be set to any calendar
time and the clock automatically keeps track of days of the week
and month, leap years, and century transitions. There are eight
registers dedicated to the clock functions, which are used to set
time with a write cycle and to read time with 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
The double-buffered RTC register structure reduces the chance
of reading incorrect data from the clock. Internal updates to the
CY14X101PA time keeping registers are stopped when the read
bit ‘R’ (in the flags register at 0x00) is set to ‘1’ before reading
clock data to prevent reading of data in transition. Stopping the
register updates does not affect clock accuracy.
When a read sequence of RTC device is initiated, the update of
the user timekeeping registers stops and does not restart until a
‘0’ is written to the read bit ‘R’ (in the flags register at 0x00). After
the end of read sequence, all the RTC registers are simultaneously updated within 20 ms.
Setting the Clock
A write access to the RTC device stops updates to the time
keeping registers and enables the time to be set when the write
bit ‘W’ (in the flags register at 0x00) is set to ‘1’. The correct day,
date, and time is then written into the registers and must be 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
the calculation of the current time. When the write bit ‘W’ is
cleared by writing ‘0’ to it, the values of timekeeping registers are
transferred to the actual clock counters after which the clock
resumes normal operation.
If the time written to the timekeeping registers is not in the correct
BCD format, each invalid nibble of the RTC registers continue
counting to 0xF before rolling over to 0x0 after which RTC
resumes normal operation.
Note After the ‘W’ bit is set to ‘0’, values written into the
timekeeping, alarm, calibration, and interrupt registers are transferred to the RTC time keeping counters in tRTCp time. These
counter values must be saved to nonvolatile memory either by
initiating a Software/Hardware STORE or AutoStore operation.
While working in AutoStore disabled mode, perform a STORE
Document Number: 001-54392 Rev. *J
operation after tRTCp time while writing into the RTC registers for
the modifications to be correctly recorded.
Backup Power
The RTC in the CY14X101PA is intended for permanently
powered operation. The VRTCcap or VRTCbat pin is connected
depending on whether a capacitor or battery is chosen for the
application. When the primary power, VCC, fails and drops below
VSWITCH the device switches to the backup power supply.
The clock oscillator uses very little current, which maximizes the
backup time available from the backup source. Regardless of the
clock operation with the primary source removed, the data stored
in the nvSRAM is secure, having been stored in the nonvolatile
elements when power was lost.
During backup operation, the CY14X101PA consumes a 0.45 µA
(Typ) at room temperature. The user must choose capacitor or
battery values according to the application.
Backup time values based on maximum current specifications
are shown in the following Table 8. Nominal backup times are
approximately two times longer.

Capacitor Value
0.1 F
0.47 F
1.0 F
Backup Time
(CY14B101PA)
60 hours
12 days
25 days
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 3-V lithium is recommended and the CY14X101PA
sources current only from the battery when the primary power is
removed. However, the battery is not recharged at any time by
the CY14X101PA. The battery capacity must be chosen for total
anticipated cumulative down time required over the life of the
system.
Stopping and Starting the Oscillator
The OSCEN bit in the calibration register at 0x08 controls the
enable and disable of the oscillator. This bit is nonvolatile and is
shipped to customers in the “enabled” (set to ‘0’) state. To
preserve the battery life when the system is in storage, OSCEN
must be set to ‘1’. This turns off the oscillator circuit, extending
the battery life. If the OSCEN bit goes from disabled to enabled,
it takes approximately one second (two seconds maximum) for
the oscillator to start.
While system power is off, if the voltage on the backup supply
(VRTCcap or VRTCbat) falls below their respective minimum level,
the oscillator may fail.The CY14X101PA has the ability to detect
oscillator failure when system power is restored. This is recorded
in the Oscillator Fail Flag (OSCF) of the flags register at the
address 0x00. When the device is powered on (VCC goes above
VSWITCH) the OSCEN bit is checked for the ‘enabled’ status. If
the OSCEN bit is enabled and the oscillator is not active within
the first 5 ms, the OSCF bit is set to ‘1’. The system must check
for this condition and then write ‘0’ to clear the flag.
Note that in addition to setting the OSCF flag bit, the time
registers are reset to the ‘Base Time’, which is the value last
written to the timekeeping registers. The control or calibration

generated on INT pin if Alarm Interrupt Enable (AIE) bit is set.
The value of OSCF must 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.
There are four alarm match fields: date, hours, minutes, and
seconds. Each of these fields 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 is used in
the match process. Depending on the match bits, the alarm
occurs as specifically as once a month or as frequently as once
every minute. Selecting none of the match bits (all 1s) indicates
that no match is required and therefore, alarm is disabled.
Selecting all match bits (all 0s) causes an exact time and date
match.
To reset OSCF, set the write bit ‘W’ (in the flags register at 0x00)
to a ‘1’ to enable writes to the flags register. Write a ‘0’ to the
OSCF bit and then reset the write bit to ‘0’ to disable writes.
Calibrating the Clock
The RTC is driven by a quartz controlled crystal with a nominal
frequency of 32.768 kHz. Clock accuracy depends on the quality
of the crystal and calibration. The crystals available in market
typically have an error of +20 ppm to +35 ppm. However,
CY14X101PA employs a calibration circuit that improves the
accuracy to +1/–2 ppm at 25 °C. This implies an error of
+2.5 seconds to -5 seconds per month.
The calibration circuit adds or subtracts counts from the oscillator
divider circuit to achieve this accuracy. 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 0x08. The
calibration bits occupy the five lower order bits in the calibration
register. These bits are set 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.
Adding counts speeds the clock up and subtracting counts slows
the clock down. If a binary ‘1’ is loaded into the register, it
corresponds to an adjustment of 4.068 or –2.034 ppm offset in
oscillator error, depending on the sign.
Calibration occurs within a 64-minute cycle. The first 62 minutes
in the cycle may, once per minute, have one second 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 are modified. If a binary 6 is loaded, the first 12
are affected, and so on. Therefore, each 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 per calibration step in the calibration register.
To determine the required calibration, the CAL bit in the flags
register (0x00) must be set to ‘1’. This causes the INT pin to
toggle at a nominal frequency of 512 Hz. Any deviation
measured from the 512 Hz indicates the degree and direction of
the required correction. For example, a reading of 512.01024 Hz
indicates a +20 ppm error. Hence, a decimal value of –10
(001010b) must be loaded into the calibration register to offset
this error.
Note Setting or changing the calibration register does not affect
the test output frequency.
To set or clear CAL, set the write bit ‘W’ (in the flags register at
0x00) to ‘1’ to enable writes to the flags register. Write a value to
CAL, and then reset the write bit to ‘0’ to disable writes.
Alarm
The alarm function compares user-programmed values of alarm
time and date (stored in the registers 0x01–5) with the
corresponding time of day and date values. When a match
Document Number: 001-54392 Rev. *J
There are two ways to detect an alarm event: by reading the AF
flag or monitoring the INT pin. The AF flag in the flags register at
0x00 indicates that a date or time match has occurred. The AF
bit is set to ‘1’ when a match occurs. Reading the flags register
clears the alarm flag bit (and all others). A hardware interrupt pin
may also be used to detect an alarm event.
To set, clear or enable an alarm, set the ‘W’ bit (in the flags
register - 0x00) to ‘1’ to enable writes to alarm registers. After
writing the alarm value, clear the ‘W’ bit back to ‘0’ for the
changes to take effect.
Note CY14X101PA requires the alarm match bit for seconds (bit
‘D7’ in Alarm-Seconds register 0x02) to be set to ‘0’ for proper
operation of Alarm Flag and Interrupt.
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 timer consists of a loadable register and a free-running
counter. On power-up, the watchdog time out value in register
0x07 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 time out interrupt by setting WDS bit to ‘1’ prior to the
counter reaching ‘0’. This causes the counter to reload with the
watchdog time out value and to be restarted. As long as the user
sets the WDS bit prior to the counter reaching the terminal value,
the interrupt and WDT flag never occur.
New time out values are written by setting the watchdog write bit
to ‘0’. When the WDW is ‘0’, new writes to the watchdog time out
value bits D5-D0 are enabled to modify the time out value. When
WDW is ‘1’, writes to bits D5–D0 are ignored. The WDW function
enables you to set the WDS bit without concern that the
watchdog timer value is modified. A logical diagram of the
watchdog timer is shown in Figure 30 on page 23. Note that
setting the watchdog time out value to ‘0’ disables the watchdog
function.
The output of the watchdog timer is the flag bit WDF that is set if
the watchdog is allowed to time out. If the Watchdog Interrupt
Enable (WIE) bit in the interrupt register is set, a hardware
interrupt on INT pin is also generated on watchdog timeout. The
flag and the hardware interrupt are both cleared when user reads
the flag registers.

Programmable Square Wave Generator
The square wave generator block uses the crystal output to
generate a desired frequency on the INT pin of the device. The
output frequency can be programmed to be one of these:
1. 1 Hz
2. 512 Hz
3. 4096 Hz
4. 32768 Hz
The square wave output is not generated while the device is
running on backup power.
Power Monitor
The CY14X101PA 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 VSWITCH
threshold.
As described in the section AutoStore Operation on page 4,
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, read and write
operations to nvSRAM are inhibited and the RTC functions are
not available to the user. The RTC clock continues to operate in
the background. The updated RTC time keeping registers are
available to the user after VCC is restored to the device (see
AutoStore or Power-Up RECALL on page 35).
The CY14X101PA provides a backup power monitoring system
which detects the backup power (either battery or capacitor
backup) failure. The backup power fail flag (BPF) is issued on
the next power-up in case of backup power failure. The BPF flag
is set in the event of backup voltage falling lower than VBAKFAIL.
The backup power is monitored even while the RTC is running
in backup mode. Low voltage detected during backup mode is
flagged through the BPF flag. BPF can hold the data only until a
defined low level of the back-up voltage (VDR).
Interrupts
The CY14X101PA has a flags register, interrupt register, and
Interrupt logic that can signal interrupt to the microcontroller.
There are three potential sources for interrupt: watchdog timer,
power monitor, and alarm timer. Each of these can be individually
enabled to drive the INT pin by appropriate setting in the interrupt
register (0x06). In addition, each has an associated flag bit in the
flags register (0x00) that the host processor uses to determine
the cause of the interrupt. The INT pin driver has two bits that
specify its behavior when an interrupt occurs.
An Interrupt is raised only if both a flag is raised by one of the
three sources and the respective interrupt enable bit in interrupts
register is enabled (set to ‘1’). After an interrupt source is active,
two programmable bits, H/L and P/L, determine the behavior of
the output pin driver on INT pin. These two bits are located in the
interrupt register and can be used to drive level or pulse mode
output from the INT pin. In pulse mode, the pulse width is
internally fixed at approximately 200 ms. This mode is intended
to reset a host microcontroller. In the level mode, the pin goes to
its active polarity until the flags register is read by the user. This
mode is used as an interrupt to a host microcontroller. The
control bits are summarized in the section Interrupt Register.
Interrupts are only generated while working on normal power and
are not triggered when system is running in backup power mode.
Note CY14X101PA generates valid interrupts only after the
Power Up RECALL sequence is completed. All events on INT pin
must be ignored for tFA duration after powerup.
Interrupt Register
Watchdog Interrupt Enable (WIE): When set to ‘1’, the
watchdog timer drives the INT pin and an internal flag when a
watchdog time out occurs. When WIE is set to ‘0’, the watchdog
timer only affects the WDF flag in flags register.
Alarm Interrupt Enable (AIE): When set to ‘1’, the alarm match
drives the INT pin and an internal flag. When AIE is set to ‘0’, the
alarm match only affects the AF flag in flags register.
Power Fail Interrupt Enable (PFE): When set to ‘1’, the power
fail monitor drives the pin and an internal flag. When PFE is set
to ‘0’, the power fail monitor only affects the PF flag in flags
register.
Square Wave Enable (SQWE): When set to ‘1’, a square wave
of programmable frequency is generated on the INT pin. The
frequency is decided by the SQ1 and SQ0 bits of the interrupts
register. This bit is nonvolatile and survives power cycle. The
SQWE bit over rides all other interrupts. However, CAL bit will
take precedence over the square wave generator. This bit
defaults to ‘0’ from factory.

CY14E101PA
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 drives HIGH only
when VCC is greater than VSWITCH. When set to a ‘0’, the INT pin
is active LOW and the drive mode is open drain. The INT pin
must be pulled up to Vcc by a 10 k resistor while using the
interrupt in active LOW 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 register is read.
programmed for pulse mode, then reading the flag also clears
the flag and the pin. The pulse does not complete its specified
duration if the flags register is read. If the INT pin is used as a
host reset, the flags register is not read during a reset.

When an enabled interrupt source activates the INT pin, an

Flags Register
The flags register has three flag bits: WDF, AF, and PF, which
can be used to generate an interrupt. These flag 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. These flags are
automatically reset after the register is read. The flags register is
automatically loaded with the value 0x00 on power-up (except
for the OSCF bit. See Stopping and Starting the Oscillator on
page 21).

Oscillator Fail Flag. Set to ‘1’ on power-up if the oscillator is enabled and not running in the first 5 ms of operation. This
indicates that RTC backup power failed and clock value is no longer valid. This bit survives power cycle and is never
cleared internally by the chip. The user must check for this condition and write '0' to clear this flag. When user resets
OSCF flag bit, the bit will be updated after tRTCp time.
BPF
Backup Power Fail Flag. Set to ‘1’ on power-up if the backup power (battery or capacitor) failed. The backup power fail
condition is determined by the voltage falling below their respective minimum specified voltage. BPF can hold the data
only until a defined low level of the back-up voltage (VDR). User must reset this bit to clear this flag. When user resets
BPF flag bit, the bit will be updated after tRTCp time.
CAL
Calibration Mode. When set to ‘1’, a 512 Hz square wave is output on the INT pin. When set to ‘0’, the INT pin resumes
normal operation. This bit takes priority than SQ0/SQ1 and other functions. This bit defaults to ‘0’ (disabled) on power-up.
W
Write Enable: Setting the ‘W’ bit to ‘1’ freezes updates of the RTC registers. The user can then write to RTC registers,
alarm registers, calibration register, interrupt register and flags register. Setting the ‘W’ bit to ‘0’ causes the contents of
the RTC registers to be transferred to the time keeping counters if the time has changed. This transfer process takes
tRTCp time to complete. This bit defaults to 0 on power-up.
R
Read Enable: Setting ‘R’ bit to ‘1’, stops clock updates to user RTC registers so that clock updates are not seen during
the reading process. Set ‘R’ bit to ‘0’ to resume clock updates to the holding register. Setting this bit does not require
‘W’ bit to be set to ‘1’. This bit defaults to ‘0’ on power-up.

Notes
10. Min VCAP value guarantees that there is a sufficient charge available to complete a successful AutoStore operation. Max VCAP value guarantees that the capacitor on
VCAP is charged to a minimum voltage during a Power-Up RECALL cycle so that an immediate power-down cycle can complete a successful AutoStore. Therefore it
is always recommended to use a capacitor within the specified min and max limits. Refer application note AN43593 for more details on VCAP options.
11. Maximum voltage on VCAP pin (VVCAP) is provided for guidance when choosing the VCAP capacitor. The voltage rating of the VCAP capacitor across the operating
temperature range should be higher than the VVCAP voltage.
12. These parameters are guaranteed by design and are not tested.

16. If VRTCcap > 0.5 V or if no capacitor is connected to VRTCcap pin, the oscillator will start in tOCS time. If a backup capacitor is connected and VRTCcap < 0.5 V, the capacitor
must be allowed to charge to 0.5 V for oscillator to start.
17. Test conditions assume signal transition time of 3 ns or less, timing reference levels of VCC/2, input pulse levels of 0 to VCC(typ), and output loading of the specified
IOL/IOH and load capacitance shown in Figure 33.
