General Description
source is switched on to sustain the
memory until after VCC returns valid.
The CMOS bq4010 is a nonvolatile
65,536-bit static RAM organized as
8,192 words by 8 bits. The integral
control circuitry and lithium energy
source provide reliable nonvolatility
coupled with th e u nlim ited wr ite
cycles of standard SRAM.
power
The bq4010 uses an extremely low
s t a n d by cu r r en t CMOS SR AM,
coupled with a small lithium coin
cell to provide nonvolatility without
long write-cycle times and the write-
cycle lim it a tion s a ssocia ted with
EEPROM.
➤ Automatic write-protection

cycles

Th e con t r ol cir cu it r y con st a n t ly
monitors the single 5V supply for an
out-of-tolerance condition. When VCC
falls out of tolerance, the SRAM is
un conditionally wr ite-protected to
prevent inadvertent write operation.
➤ Conventional SRAM operation;
The bq4010 requires no external cir-
cuitry and is socket-compatible with
industry-standard SRAMs and most
EPROMs and EEPROMs.
