bq2201 SRAM Nonvolatile Controller Unit Features General Description ➤ Power monitoring and switching for 3-volt battery-backup applications The CMOS bq2201 SRAM Nonvolatile Controller Unit provides all necessary functions for converting a standard CMOS SRAM into nonvolatile read/write memory. ➤ Write-protect control ➤ 3-volt primary cell inputs ➤ Les s than 10ns chip- e nable propagation delay ➤ 5% or 10% supply operation A precision comparator monitors the 5V VCC input for an out-of-tolerance condition. When out of tolerance is detected, a conditioned chip-enable output is forced inactive to writeprotect any standard CMOS SRAM. Pin Connections During a power failure, the external SRAM is switched from the V CC supply to one of two 3V backup supplies. On a subsequent power-up, the SRAM is write-protected until a power-valid condition exists. The bq2201 is footprint- and timingcompatible with industry standards with the added benefit of a chip-enable propagation delay of less than 10ns.

As VCC slews down during a power failure, the conditioned chip-enable output CE CON is forced inactive independent of the chip-enable input CE. If THS is tied to VSS, power-fail detection occurs at 4.62V typical for 5% supply operation. If THS is tied to VCC, power-fail detection occurs at 4.37V typical for 10% supply operation. The THS pin must be tied to VSS or VCC for proper operation. This activity unconditionally write-protects external SRAM as VCC falls to an out-of-tolerance threshold VPFD. VPFD is selected by the threshold select input pin, THS. If a memory access is in process during power-fail detection, that memory cycle continues to completion before the memory is write-protected. If the memory cycle is not terminated within time tWPT, the CECON output is unconditionally driven high, write-protecting the memory. Oct. 1998 D 1 bq2201 A valid isolation signal requires CE low as VCC crosses both VPFD and VSO during a power-down. See Figure 2. Between these two points in time, CE must be brought to the point of (0.48 to 0.52)*VCC and held for at least 700ns. The isolation signal is invalid if CE exceeds 0.54*VCC at any point between VCC crossing VPFD and VSO. As the supply continues to fall past VPFD, an internal switching device forces VOUT to one of the two external backup energy sources. CECON is held high by the VOUT energy source. During power-up, VOUT is switched back to the VCC supply as VCC rises above the backup cell input voltage sourcing VOUT. The CECON output is held inactive for time t CER (120 ms maximum) after the supply has reached VPFD, independent of the CE input, to allow for processor stabilization. The appropriate battery is connected to VOUT and CECON immediately on subsequent application and removal of VCC. During power-valid operation, the CE input is fed through to the CECON output with a propagation delay of less than 10ns. Nonvolatility is achieved by hardware hookup, as shown in Figure 1. VPFD Energy Cell Inputs—BC1, BC2 Two primary backup energy source inputs are provided on the bq2201. The BC1 and BC2 inputs accept a 3V primary battery, typically some type of lithium chemistry. If no primary cell is to be used on either BC1 or BC2, the unused input should be tied to VSS. VCC VSO If both inputs are used, during power failure the VOUT output is fed only by BC1 as long as it is greater than 2.5V. If the voltage at BC1 falls below 2.5V, an internal isolation switch automatically switches VOUT from BC1 to BC2. 0.5 VCC CE 700ns To prevent battery drain when there is no valid data to retain, VOUT and CECON are internally isolated from BC1 and BC2 by either of the following: ■ Initial connection of a battery to BC1 or BC2, or ■ Presentation of an isolation signal on CE.
