COMPLETE FREEDOM
FROM SOFT ERRORS
ASYNCHRONOUS SRAMS WITH
ERROR-CORRECTING CODE (ECC)
SOFT ERROR: HOW BAD IS IT?
With every new process technology node there is significant improvement in performance and power consumption
along with reduction in the size of the chip. Each new process technology reduces voltage and shrinks the
capacitance of the node. This reduced node capacitance make these devices more susceptible to bit failures
caused by energetic particles. These bit failures are called soft errors.
Electronic devices are frequently exposed to extraterrestrial energetic particles like Alpha particles,
Cosmic rays & Thermal neutrons. With today’s advanced process nodes, memories are highly likely to
fail due to soft errors caused by this extraterrestrial radiation.
Soft errors not only corrupt data, but can also lead to loss of function and system critical failures.
Industrial controllers, military equipment, networking systems, medical devices, automotive
electronics, and consumer electronics are especially vulnerable to the adverse effects of soft
errors. An uncorrected soft error can lead to system failures in mission critical industrial
automation, automotive engine control, and high-end security systems.

WHAT’S THE SOLUTION?
Soft errors are usually dealt with through redundancy &
software. Redundancy involves storing the same data on
multiple chips to insure against data loss. It’s quite expensive
and takes up a lot of board space. While software doesn’t
take up extra board space, it is tedious, expensive and time
consuming. Both these solutions are impractical in latest
generation devices due to board space and product cycle
time restrictions.

COMPLETE FREEDOM FROM SOFT ERRORS
Cypress’ Asynchronous SRAM with On-Chip Error Correcting Code (ECC) provides a faster, simpler and
more cost effective solution than software or redundancy based ECC schemes. It is the industry’s highest
reliability chip, built to service a wide variety of applications.

HIGH PERFORMANCE AND
LOW POWER. NOW A REALITY
Fast SRAM with PowerSnooze™ is a revolutionary product that eliminates the tradeoff between performance and
power consumption in Asynchronous SRAM applications. In this new family of devices, the best features of Fast
SRAMs (High speed) & Low-Power SRAMs (Low power consumption) are available through a novel on-chip power
saving mode called PowerSnooze™.

PowerSnooze is an additional power saving mode to standard Asynchronous SRAM operating modes (Active,
Standby, and Data-Retention). The Deep Sleep pin (DS#) enables switching between the high performance active
mode and the ultra low-power PowerSnooze mode. With deep sleep current as low as 15 μA (in 4-Mbit devices),
Fast SRAM with PowerSnooze combines the best features of fast and low-power SRAM in a single device.
