Data Retention Mode
The CY7C024/0241 is designed with battery backup in mind.
Data retention voltage and supply current are guaranteed over
temperature. The following rules insure data retention:
1. Chip enable (CE) must be held HIGH during data retention, with-
in VCC to VCC – 0.2V.
2. CE must be kept between VCC – 0.2V and 70% of VCC
during the power-up and power-down transitions.
3. The RAM can begin operation >tRC after VCC reaches the min-
imum operating voltage (4.5 volts).
Notes:
16. Test conditions used are Load 2.
17. tBDD is a calculated parameter and is the greater of tWDD– tPWE (actual) or
tDDD– tSD (actual).
18. CE = VCC, Vin = GND to VCC, TA = 25°C. This parameter is guaranteed but not
tested.
