STK14D88-3
32K x 8 AutoStoreTM nvSRAM
QuantumTrapTM CMOS
Nonvolatile Static RAM
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
• 25ns, 35ns and 45ns Access Times
• “Hands-off” Automatic STORE on Power Down
with only a small capacitor
• STORE to QuantumTrap™ Nonvolatile
Elements is Initiated by Software , device pin
or AutoStore™ on Power Down
The Simtek STK14D88-3 is a fast static RAM with a
nonvolatile element in each memory cell. The
embedded
nonvolatile
elements
incorporate
Simtek’s 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 QuantumTrapTM 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.
• RECALL to SRAM Initiated by Software or
Power Restore
• Unlimited READ, WRITE and RECALL Cycles
• 5mA Typical ICC at 200ns Cycle Time
• 1,000,000 STORE Cycles to QuantumTrap™
• 100-Year Data Retention to QuantumTrap™
• Single 3V +20%, -10% Operation
• Commercial and Industrial Temperatures
• SSOP and SOIC Packages
• RoHS Compliance
