STK11C88
32K x 8 nvSRAM
QuantumTrap™ CMOS
Nonvolatile Static RAM
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
• 25ns, 35ns and 45ns Access Times
The Simtek STK11C88 is a fast static RAM with a
nonvolatile element incorporated in each static
memory cell. The SRAM can be read and written an
unlimited number of times, while independent non-
volatile data resides in Nonvolatile Elements. Data
transfers from the SRAM to the Nonvolatile Elements
(the STORE operation), or from Nonvolatile Elements
to SRAM (the RECALL operation), are initiated using
a software sequence. Data transfers from the Non-
volatile Elements to the SRAM (the RECALL opera-
tion) also occur upon restoration of power.
• STORE to Nonvolatile Elements Initiated by
Software
• RECALL to SRAM Initiated by Software or
Power Restore
• 10mA Typical ICC at 200ns Cycle Time
• Unlimited READ, WRITE and RECALL Cycles
• 1,000,000 STORE Cycles to Nonvolatile Ele-
ments (Commercial/Industrial)
• 100-Year Data Retention in Nonvolatile Ele-
ments (Commercial/Industrial)
The STK11C88 is pin-compatible with industry-
standard SRAMs.
• Single 5V + 10% Operation
• Commercial and Industrial Temperatures
• 28-Pin PDIP and SOIC Packages
