The Cypress CY14B256L is a fast static RAM with a nonvolatile
element in each memory cell. The embedded nonvolatile
elements incorporate QuantumTrap technology producing the
world’s most reliable nonvolatile memory. The SRAM provides
unlimited read and write cycles, while independent, nonvolatile
data resides in the highly reliable QuantumTrap cell. Data
transfers from the SRAM to the nonvolatile elements (the
STORE operation) takes place automatically at power down. On
power up, data is restored to the SRAM (the RECALL operation)
from the nonvolatile memory. Both the STORE and RECALL
operations are also available under software control. A hardware
STORE is initiated with the HSB pin.

The CY14B256L nvSRAM is made up of two functional components paired in the same physical cell. These are an SRAM
memory cell and a nonvolatile QuantumTrap cell. The SRAM
memory cell operates as a standard fast static RAM. Data in the
SRAM is transferred to the nonvolatile cell (the STORE
operation) or from the nonvolatile cell to SRAM (the RECALL
operation). This unique architecture enables the storage and
recall of all cells in parallel. During the STORE and RECALL
operations, SRAM READ and WRITE operations are inhibited.
The CY14B256L supports unlimited reads and writes similar to
a typical SRAM. In addition, it provides unlimited RECALL operations from the nonvolatile cells and up to 200K STORE operations.
the VCAP pin is driven to 5V by a charge pump internal to the chip.
A pull up is placed on WE to hold it inactive during power up.

Device Operation
WE
SRAM Read
The CY14B256L performs a READ cycle whenever CE and OE
are LOW while WE and HSB are HIGH. The address specified
on pins A0–14 determines the 32,768 data bytes accessed. When
the READ is initiated by an address transition, the outputs are
valid after a delay of tAA (READ cycle 1). If the READ is initiated
by CE or OE, the outputs are valid at tACE or at tDOE, whichever
is later (READ cycle 2). The data outputs repeatedly respond to
address changes within the tAA access time without the need for
transitions on any control input pins, and 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 prior to 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 are written into the memory if it has valid tSD, before
the end of a WE controlled WRITE or before the end of an CE
controlled WRITE. Keep OE 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 CY14B256L stores data to nvSRAM using one of three
storage operations:
1. Hardware store activated by HSB
2. Software store activated by an address sequence
3. AutoStore on device power down
AutoStore operation is a unique feature of QuantumTrap
technology and is enabled by default on the CY14B256L.
During normal operation, the device draws current from VCC to
charge a capacitor connected to the VCAP pin. This stored
charge is 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 is initiated with power provided by the VCAP capacitor.
Figure 2 shows the proper connection of the storage capacitor
(VCAP) for automatic store operation. Refer to the DC Electrical
Characteristics on page 7 for the size of VCAP. The voltage on
Document Number: 001-06422 Rev. *H
To reduce unnecessary nonvolatile stores, AutoStore and
Hardware Store operations are 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. An optional pull-up resistor is shown connected to HSB.
The HSB signal is monitored by the system to detect if an
AutoStore cycle is in progress.
Hardware STORE (HSB) Operation
The CY14B256L provides the HSB pin for controlling and
acknowledging the STORE operations. The HSB pin is used to
request a hardware STORE cycle. When the HSB pin is driven
LOW, the CY14B256L conditionally initiates a STORE operation
after tDELAY. An actual STORE cycle only begins if a WRITE to
the SRAM takes 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 CY14B256L continues SRAM operations for tDELAY. During
tDELAY, multiple SRAM READ operations take place. If a WRITE
is in progress when HSB is pulled LOW, it allows a time, tDELAY
to complete. However, any SRAM WRITE cycles requested after
HSB goes LOW are inhibited until HSB returns HIGH.
If HSB is not used, it is left unconnected.
Hardware RECALL (Power Up)
During power up or after any low power condition (VCC <
VSWITCH), an internal RECALL request is latched. When VCC

once again exceeds the sense voltage of VSWITCH, a RECALL
cycle is automatically initiated and takes tHRECALL to complete.
Software STORE
Data is transferred from the SRAM to the nonvolatile memory by
a software address sequence. The CY14B256L 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. When a STORE cycle is initiated, 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 they intervene, the
sequence is aborted and no STORE or RECALL takes place.
To initiate the software STORE cycle, the following READ
sequence is performed:
1. Read address 0x0E38, Valid READ
2. Read address 0x31C7, Valid READ
3. Read address 0x03E0, Valid READ
4. Read address 0x3C1F, Valid READ
5. Read address 0x303F, Valid READ
6. Read address 0x0FC0, Initiate STORE cycle
The software sequence is clocked with CE controlled READs or
OE controlled READs. When the sixth address in the sequence
is entered, the STORE cycle commences and the chip is
disabled. It is important that READ cycles and not WRITE cycles
are used in the sequence. It is not necessary that OE is LOW for
a valid sequence. After the tSTORE cycle time is fulfilled, the
SRAM is again activated for READ and WRITE operation.
Software RECALL
Data is transferred 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 is
performed:
1. Read address 0x0E38, Valid READ
2. Read address 0x31C7, Valid READ
3. Read address 0x03E0, Valid READ
4. Read address 0x3C1F, Valid READ
5. Read address 0x303F, Valid READ
6. Read address 0x0C63, Initiate RECALL cycle
Data Protection
The CY14B256L 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 is less than VSWITCH. If the CY14B256L is in a WRITE
mode (both CE and WE are low) at power up after a RECALL or
after a STORE, the WRITE is inhibited until a negative transition
on CE or WE is detected. This protects against inadvertent writes
during power up or brown out conditions.
Noise Considerations
The CY14B256L is a high speed memory. It 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 reduce circuit noise.
Low Average Active Power
CMOS technology provides the CY14B256L the benefit of
drawing significantly less current when it is cycled at times longer
than 50 ns. Figure 3 shows the relationship between ICC and
READ or WRITE cycle time. Worst case current consumption is
shown for both CMOS and TTL input levels (commercial temperature range, VCC = 3.6V, 100% duty cycle on chip enable). Only
standby current is drawn when the chip is disabled. The overall
average current drawn by the CY14B256L depends on the
following items:
■
The duty cycle of chip enable
■
The overall cycle rate for accesses
■
The ratio of READs to WRITEs
■
CMOS versus TTL input levels
■
The operating temperature
■
The VCC level
■
IO loading
Figure 3. Current vs. Cycle Time
Internally, RECALL is a two step procedure. First, the SRAM data
is cleared, and then the nonvolatile information is transferred into
the SRAM cells. After the tRECALL cycle time, the SRAM is once
again ready for READ and WRITE operations. The RECALL
operation does not alter the data in the nonvolatile elements. The
nonvolatile data can be recalled an unlimited number of times.

Preventing Store
Best Practices
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, perform the following sequence of
CE controlled or OE controlled READ operations:
1. Read Address 0x0E38 Valid READ
2. Read Address 0x31C7 Valid READ
3. Read Address 0x03E0 Valid READ
4. Read Address 0x3C1F Valid READ
5. Read Address 0x303F Valid READ
6. Read Address 0x03F8 AutoStore Disable
nvSRAM products have been used effectively for over 15 years.
While ease of use is one of the product’s main system values,
experience gained working with hundreds of applications has
resulted in the following suggestions as best practices:
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, perform the following sequence of
CE controlled or OE controlled READ operations:
1. Read Address 0x0E38 Valid READ
2. Read Address 0x31C7 Valid READ
3. Read Address 0x03E0 Valid READ
4. Read Address 0x3C1F Valid READ
5. Read Address 0x303F Valid READ
6. Read Address 0x07F0 AutoStore Enable
■
The nonvolatile cells in an nvSRAM are programmed on the
test floor during final test and quality assurance. Incoming
inspection routines at customer or contract manufacturer’s
sites sometimes reprogram these values. Final NV patterns are
typically repeating patterns of AA, 55, 00, FF, A5, or 5A. End
product’s firmware should not assume an NV array is in a set
programmed state. Routines that check memory content
values to determine first time system configuration, cold or
warm boot status, and so on should always program a unique
NV pattern (for example, complex 4-byte pattern of 46 E6 49
53 hex or more random bytes) as part of the final system
manufacturing test to ensure these system routines work
consistently.
■
Power up boot firmware routines should rewrite the nvSRAM
into the desired state. While the nvSRAM is shipped in a preset
state, the best practice is to again rewrite the nvSRAM into the
desired state as a safeguard against events that might flip the
bit inadvertently (program bugs, incoming inspection routines,
and so on).
■
If autostore is firmware disabled, it does not reset to “autostore
enabled” on every power down event captured by the nvSRAM.
The application firmware should re-enable or re-disable
autostore on each reset sequence based on the behavior
desired.
■
The VCAP value specified in this data sheet includes a minimum
and a maximum value size. Best practice is to meet this
requirement and not exceed the maximum VCAP value because
higher inrush currents may reduce the reliability of the internal
pass transistor. Customers that want to use a larger VCAP value
to make sure there is extra store charge should discuss their
VCAP size selection with Cypress to understand any impact on
the VCAP voltage level at the end of a tRECALL period.
If the AutoStore function is disabled or re-enabled, a manual
STORE operation (Hardware or Software) is issued to save the
AutoStore state through subsequent power down cycles. The
part comes from the factory with AutoStore enabled.

Notes
17. Read and Write cycles in progress before HSB are given this amount of time to complete.
18. This is the amount of time it takes to take action on a soft sequence command. Vcc power must remain HIGH to effectively register command.
19. Commands such as STORE and RECALL lock out IO until operation is complete which further increases this time. See specific command.
