CY14B101K
Low Average Active Power | Best Practices |
CMOS technology provides the CY14B101K the benefit of drawing significantly less current when it is cycled at times longer than 50 ns. Figure 3 shows the relationship between ICC and READ/WRITE Cycle Time. The worst case current consumption is shown for commercial temperature range, VCC = 3.6V, and chip enable at maximum frequency. Only standby current is drawn when the chip is disabled.
The overall average current drawn by the CY14B101K depends on the following items:
■The duty cycle of chip enable
■The overall cycle rate for accesses
■The ratio of READs to WRITEs
■The operating temperature
■The VCC level
■IO loading

nvSRAM products have been used effectively for over 15 years. While
■The nonvolatile cells in an nvSRAM are programmed on the test floor during final test and quality assurance. Incoming inspection routines at customer or contract manufacturer’s sites sometimes reprograms these values. Final NV patterns are typically repeating patterns of AA, 55, 00, FF, A5, or 5A. The end product’s firmware should not assume that an NV array is in a set programmed state. Routines that check memory content values to determine first time system configuration and cold or warm boot status, must always program a unique NV pattern (for example, complex
■The OSCEN bit in the Calibration register at 0x1FFF8 should be set to 1 to preserve battery life when the system is in storage (see Stopping and Starting the Oscillator on page 7).
■The Vcap value specified in this data sheet includes a minimum and a maximum value size. The best practice is to meet this requirement and not exceed the maximum Vcap value because the higher inrush currents may reduce the reliability of the internal pass transistor. Customers who want to use a larger Vcap value to make sure there is extra store charge should discuss their Vcap size selection with Cypress.
