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 may be initiated with HSB pin.

These are a SRAM memory cell and a nonvolatile QuantumTrap cell. The SRAM memory cell operates as a standard fast static RAM. Data in the SRAM can be transferred 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 CY14E064L supports unlimited reads and writes just like a typical SRAM. In addition, it provides unlimited RECALL operations from the nonvolatile cells and up to 1 million STORE operations. CY14E064L Figure 1 shows the proper connection of the storage capacitor (VCAP) for automatic store operation. Refer to the DC Characteristics table for the size of VCAP. The voltage on the VCAP pin is driven to 5V by a charge pump internal to the chip. A pull-up should be placed on WE to hold it inactive during power-up. 10k Ohm 1 28 27 26 SRAM Read The CY14E064L performs a READ cycle whenever CE and OE are low while WE and HSB are high. The address specified on pins A0–12 determines which of the 8,192 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 will repeatedly respond to address changes within the tAA access time without the need for transitions on any control input pins, and will remain valid until another address change or until CE or OE is brought high, or WE or HSB is brought low. 68 UF 6v, +20% U 0.1 F Bypass 14 15 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 I/O pins I/O0–7 will be written into the memory if it 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 I/O lines. If OE is left low, internal circuitry will turn off the output buffers tHZWE after WE goes low. Figure 1. AutoStore® Mode 10k Ohm 10k Ohm 1 28 27 26 AutoStore Operation The CY14E064L 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 CY14E064L. During normal operation, the device will draw 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 will automatically disconnect the VCAP pin from VCC. A STORE operation will be initiated with power provided by the VCAP capacitor.

System Power Mode Document #: 001-06543 Rev. *C Page 3 of 16 10k Ohm [+] [+] Feedback PRELIMINARY In system power mode both VCC and VCAP are connected to the +5V power supply without the 68-µF capacitor. In this mode the AutoStore function of the CY14E064L will operate on the stored system charge as power goes down. The user must, however, guarantee that VCC does not drop below 3.6V during the 10-ms STORE cycle. If an automatic STORE on power loss is not required, then VCC can be tied to ground and + 5V applied to VCAP (Figure 3). This is the AutoStore Inhibit mode, in which the AutoStore function is disabled. If the CY14E064L is operated in this configuration, references to VCC should be changed to VCAP throughout this data sheet. In this mode, STORE operations may be triggered through software control or the HSB pin. It is not permissible to change between these three options “on the fly”. CY14E064L 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. The HSB pin can be used to synchronize multiple CY14E064L while using a single larger capacitor. To operate in this mode the HSB pin should be connected together to the HSB pins from the other CY14E064L. An external pull-up resistor to +5V is required since HSB acts as an open-drain pull-down. The VCAP pins from the other CY14E064L parts can be tied together and share a single capacitor. The capacitor size must be scaled by the number of devices connected to it. When any one of the CY14E064L detects a power loss and asserts HSB, the common HSB pin will cause all parts to request a STORE cycle (a STORE will take place in those CY14E064L that have been written since the last nonvolatile cycle). During any STORE operation, regardless of how it was initiated, the CY14E064L will continue to drive the HSB pin low, releasing it only when the STORE is complete. Upon completion of the STORE operation the CY14E064L will remain disabled until the HSB pin returns high. If HSB is not used, it should be left unconnected. 0.1U F Bypass 10k Ohm 1 28 27 26 10k Ohm 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 automatically be initiated and will take tHRECALL to complete. If the CY14E064L is in a WRITE state at the end of power-up RECALL, the SRAM data will be corrupted. To help avoid this situation, a 10-Kohm resistor should be connected either between WE and system VCC or between CE and system VCC. 14 15 Software STORE Data can be transferred from the SRAM to the nonvolatile memory by a software address sequence. The CY14E064L 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, or the sequence will be aborted and no STORE or RECALL will take place. To initiate the software STORE cycle, the following READ sequence must be performed: 1. Read address 0x0000, Valid READ 2. Read address 0x1555, Valid READ 3. Read address 0x0AAA, Valid READ 4. Read address 0x1FFF, Valid READ 5. Read address 0x10F0, Valid READ 6. Read address 0x0F0F, Initiate STORE cycle Figure 3. AutoStore Inhibit Mode 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. The HSB signal can be monitored by the system to detect an AutoStore cycle is in progress. Hardware STORE (HSB) Operation The CY14E064L provides the HSB pin for controlling and acknowledging the STORE operations. The HSB pin can be used to request a hardware STORE cycle. When the HSB pin is driven low, the CY14E064L will conditionally initiate a STORE operation after tDELAY. An actual STORE cycle will only begin 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 CY14E064L will continue SRAM operations for Document #: 001-06543 Rev. *C Page 4 of 16 [+] [+] Feedback PRELIMINARY 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 will commence and the chip will be disabled. It is important that READ cycles and not WRITE cycles be used in the sequence, although 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. 1. The duty cycle of chip enable. 2. The overall cycle rate for accesses. 3.

CY14E064L Software RECALL Data can be 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 must be performed: 1. Read address 0x0000, Valid READ 2. Read address 0x1555, Valid READ 3. Read address 0x0AAA, Valid READ 4. Read address 0x1FFF, Valid READ 5. Read address 0x10F0, Valid READ 6. Read address 0x0F0E, Initiate RECALL cycle Internally, RECALL is a two-step procedure. First, the SRAM data is cleared, and second, the nonvolatile information is 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 in no way alters the data in the nonvolatile elements. Data Protection The CY14E064L 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 CY14E064L 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 brown-out conditions. Figure 4. Current vs. Cycle Time (READ) Noise Considerations The CY14E064L 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 will reduce circuit noise. Low Average Active Power CMOS technology provides the CY14E064L the benefit of drawing significantly less current when it is cycled at times longer than 50 ns. Figure 4 shows the relationship between ICC and READ/WRITE cycle time. Worst-case current consumption is shown for both CMOS and TTL input levels (commercial temperature range, VCC = 5.5V, 100% duty cycle on chip enable). Only standby current is drawn when the chip is disabled. The overall average current drawn by the CY14E064L depends on the following items: Figure 5.
