FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The Xicor X24C45 is a serial 256 bit NOVRAM featuring a static RAM configured 16 x 16, overlaid bit-by-bit with a nonvolatile E2PROM array. The X24C45 is fabricated with Xicor's Advanced CMOS Floating Gate technology. The Xicor NOVRAM design allows data to be transferred between the two memory arrays by means of software commands or external hardware inputs. A store operation (RAM data to E2PROM) is completed in 5ms or less and a recall operation (E2PROM data to RAM) is completed in 2µs or less. The X24C45 also includes the AUTOSTORE feature, a user selectable feature that automatically performs a store operation when VCC falls below a preset threshold. Xicor NOVRAMs are designed for unlimited write operations to RAM, either from the host or recalls from E2PROM and a minimum 1,000,000 store operations. Inherent data retention is specified to be greater than 100 years.

PIN DESCRIPTIONS Chip Enable (CE) The Chip Enable input must be HIGH to enable all read/ write operations. CE must remain HIGH following a Read or Write command until the data transfer is complete. CE LOW places the X24C45 in the low power standby mode and resets the instruction register. Therefore, CE must be brought LOW after the completion of an operation in order to reset the instruction register in preparation for the next command. Serial Clock (SK) The Serial Clock input is used to clock all data into and out of the device. Data In (DI) Data In is the serial data input. Data Out (DO) Data Out is the serial data output. It is in the high impedance state except during data output cycles in response to a READ instruction. AUTOSTORE Output (AS) AS is an open drain output which, when asserted indicates VCC has fallen below the AUTOSTORE threshold (VASTH). AS may be wire-ORed with multiple open drain outputs and used as an interrupt input to a microcontroller or as an input to a low power reset circuit. RECALL RECALL LOW will initiate an internal transfer of data from E2PROM to the RAM array.

DEVICE OPERATION The X24C45 contains an 8-bit instruction register. It is accessed via the DI input, with data being clocked in on the rising edge of SK. CE must be HIGH during the entire data transfer operation. Table 1. contains a list of the instructions and their operation codes. The most significant bit (MSB) of all instructions is a logic one (HIGH), bits 6 through 3 are either RAM address bits (A) or don't cares (X) and bits 2 through 0 are the operation codes. The X24C45 requires the instruction to be shifted in with the MSB first. After CE is HIGH, the X24C45 will not begin to interpret the data stream until a logic "1" has been shifted in on DI. Therefore, CE may be brought HIGH with SK running and DI LOW. DI must then go HIGH to indicate the start condition of an instruction before the X24C45 will begin any action. In addition, the SK clock is totally static. The user can completely stop the clock and data shifting will be stopped. Restarting the clock will resume shifting of data. RCL and RECALL Either a software RCL instruction or a LOW on the RECALL input will initiate a transfer of E2PROM data into RAM. This software or hardware recall operation sets an internal "previous recall" latch. This latch is reset upon power-up and must be intentionally set by the user TABLE 1. INSTRUCTION SET Instruction WRDS (Figure 3) STO (Figure 3) ENAS WRITE (Figure 2) WREN (Figure 3) RCL (Figure 3) READ (Figure 1)
X = Don't Care A = Address
to enable any write or store operations. Although a recall operation is performed upon power-up, the previous recall latch is not set by this operation. WRDS and WREN Internally the X24C45 contains a "write enable" latch. This latch must be set for either writes to the RAM or store operations to the E2PROM. The WREN instruction sets the latch and the WRDS instruction resets the latch, disabling both RAM writes and E2PROM stores, effectively protecting the nonvolatile data from corruption. The write enable latch is automatically reset on power-up. STO The software STO instruction will initiate a transfer of data from RAM to E2PROM. In order to safeguard against unwanted store operations, the following conditions must be true: · STO instruction issued. · The internal "write enable" latch must be set (WREN instruction issued). · The "previous recall" latch must be set (either a software or hardware recall operation). Once the store cycle is initiated, all other device functions are inhibited. Upon completion of the store cycle, the write enable latch is reset. Refer to Figure 4 for a state diagram description of enabling/disabling conditions for store operations.
