Description
The Cypress STK17TA8 combines a 1 Mb nonvolatile static RAM
(nvSRAM) with a full featured real time clock in a reliable,
monolithic integrated circuit.
The 1 Mb nvSRAM is a fast static RAM with a nonvolatile
Quantum Trap storage element included with each memory cell.
The SRAM provides the fast access and cycle times, ease of use
and unlimited read and write endurance of a normal SRAM. Data
transfers automatically to the nonvolatile storage cells when
power loss is detected (the STORE operation). On power up,
data is automatically restored to the SRAM (the RECALL
operation). Both STORE and RECALL operations are also
available under software control.
The real time clock function provides an accurate clock with leap
year tracking and a programmable, high accuracy oscillator. The
Alarm function is programmable for one-time alarms or periodic
minutes, hours, or days alarms. There is also a programmable
watchdog timer for processor control.
