DESCRIPTION
The DS1270 16M Nonvolatile SRAMs are 16,777,216-bit, fully static nonvolatile SRAMs organized as
2,097,152 words by 8 bits. Each NV SRAM has a self-contained lithium energy source and control
circuitry which constantly monitors V
CC
for an out-of-tolerance condition. When such a condition occurs,
the lithium energy source is automatically switched on and write protection is unconditionally enabled to
prevent data corruption. There is no limit on the number of write cycles which can be executed and no
additional support circuitry is required for microprocessor interfacing.
