Overview
The Cypress CY14C256I/CY14B256I/CY14E256I combines a
256-Kbit nvSRAM[2] with a full-featured RTC in a monolithic
integrated circuit with serial I2C interface. The memory is
organized as 64 K words of 8 bits each. The embedded
nonvolatile elements incorporate the QuantumTrap technology,
creating the world’s most reliable nonvolatile memory. The
SRAM provides infinite read and write cycles, while the
QuantumTrap cells provide highly reliable nonvolatile storage of
data. Data transfers from SRAM to the nonvolatile elements
(STORE operation) takes place automatically at power-down.
On power-up, data is restored to the SRAM from the nonvolatile
memory (RECALL operation). The STORE and RECALL
operations can also be initiated by the user through I2C
commands.
❐ Zero cycle delay reads and writes
■ Write protection

1. The I C nvSRAM is a single solution which is usable for all four speed modes of operation. As a result, some I/O parameters are slightly different than those on chips
which support only one mode of operation. Refer to AN87209 for more details.

2. Serial (I C) nvSRAM will be referred to as nvSRAM throughout the datasheet.
