Overview
The Cypress CY14B101P combines a 1-Mbit nonvolatile static
RAM with full featured real time clock in a monolithic integrated
circuit with serial SPI interface. The memory is organized as
128 K words of 8 bits each. The embedded nonvolatile elements
incorporate the QuantumTrap technology, creating the world’s
most reliable nonvolatile memory. The SRAM provides infinite
read and write cycles, while the QuantumTrap cells provide
highly reliable nonvolatile storage of data. Data transfers from
SRAM to the nonvolatile elements (STORE operation) takes
place automatically at power-down. On power-up, data is
restored to the SRAM from the nonvolatile memory (RECALL
operation). The STORE and RECALL operations can also be
initiated by the user through SPI instruction.

CY14B101P
Device Operation
CY14B101P is a 1-Mbit nvSRAM memory with integrated RTC
and SPI interface. All the reads and writes to nvSRAM happen
to the SRAM, which gives nvSRAM the unique capability to
handle infinite writes to the memory. The data in SRAM is
secured by a STORE sequence that transfers the data in parallel
to the nonvolatile QuantumTrap cells. A small capacitor (V
CAP
)
is used to AutoStore the SRAM data in nonvolatile cells when
power goes down providing power-down data security. The
QuantumTrap nonvolatile elements built in the reliable SONOS
technology make nvSRAM the ideal choice for secure data
storage.
In CY14B101P, the 1-Mbit memory array is organized as 128 K
words × 8 bits. The memory is accessed through a standard SPI
interface that enables very high clock speeds up to 40 MHz with
zero cycle delay read and write cycles. CY14B101P supports
SPI modes 0 and 3 (CPOL, CPHA = 0, 0 and 1, 1) and operates
as SPI slave. The device is enabled using the Chip Select (CS)
pin and accessed through Serial Input (SI), Serial Output (SO),
and Serial Clock (SCK) pins.
CY14B101P provides the feature for hardware and software
write protection through the WP pin and WRDI instruction.
CY14B101P also provides mechanisms for block write
protection (1/4, 1/2, or full array) using BP0 and BP1 pins in the
Status Register. Further, the HOLD pin is used to suspend any
serial communication without resetting the serial sequence.
CY14B101P uses the standard SPI opcodes for memory access.
In addition to the general SPI instructions for read and write,
CY14B101P provides four special instructions that enable
access to four nvSRAM specific functions: STORE, RECALL,
AutoStore Disable (ASDISB), and AutoStore Enable (ASENB).
The major benefit of serial (SPI) nvSRAM over serial EEPROMs
is that all reads and writes to nvSRAM are performed at the
speed of SPI bus with zero cycle delay. Therefore, no wait time
is required after any of the memory accesses. The STORE and
RECALL operations need finite time to complete and all memory
accesses are inhibited during this time. While a STORE or
RECALL operation is in progress, the busy status of the device
is indicated by the Hardware STORE Busy (HSB) pin and also
reflected on the RDY bit of the Status Register.
SRAM Read
A read cycle in CY14B101P is performed at the SPI bus speed
and the data is read out with zero cycle delay after the READ
instruction is executed. The READ instruction is issued through
the SI pin of the nvSRAM and consists of the READ opcode and
3 bytes of address. The data is read out on the SO pin.
CY14B101P enables burst mode reads to be performed through
SPI. This enables reads on consecutive addresses without
issuing a new READ instruction. When the last address in
memory is reached in burst mode read, the address rolls over to
0x0000 and the device continues to read.
The SPI read cycle sequence is defined in the memory access
section of SPI protocol description.
STORE Operation
STORE operation transfers the data from the SRAM to the
nonvolatile QuantumTrap cells. The CY14B101P STOREs data
to the nonvolatile cells using one of the three STORE operations:
AutoStore, activated on device power-down; Software STORE,
activated by a STORE instruction; and Hardware STORE,
activated by the HSB. During the STORE cycle, an erase of the
previous nonvolatile data is first performed, followed by a
program of the nonvolatile elements. After a STORE cycle is
initiated, read/write to CY14B101P is inhibited until the cycle is
completed.
The HSB signal or the RDY bit in the Status Register can be
monitored by the system to detect if a STORE or Software
RECALL cycle is in progress. The busy status of nvSRAM is
indicated by HSB being pulled LOW or RDY bit being set to ‘1’.
To avoid unnecessary nonvolatile STOREs, AutoStore and
Hardware STORE operations are ignored unless at least one
write operation has taken place since the most recent STORE or
RECALL cycle. However, software initiated STORE cycles are
performed regardless of whether a write operation took place.
AutoStore Operation
The AutoStore operation is a unique feature of nvSRAM, which
automatically stores the SRAM data to QuantumTrap during
power-down. This STORE makes use of an external capacitor
(V
CAP
) and enables the device to safely STORE the data in the
nonvolatile memory when power goes down.
During normal operation, the device draws current from V
CC
to
charge the capacitor connected to the V
CAP
pin. When the
voltage on the V
CC
pin drops below V
SWITCH
during power-down,
the device inhibits all memory accesses to nvSRAM and
automatically performs a conditional STORE operation using the
charge from the V
CAP
capacitor. The AutoStore operation is not
initiated if no write cycle was performed since the last RECALL.
Note
If a capacitor is not connected to V
CAP
pin, AutoStore must
be disabled by issuing the AutoStore Disable instruction
specified in
AutoStore Disable (ASDISB) instruction
on page 15.
If AutoStore is enabled without a capacitor on V
CAP
pin, the
device attempts an AutoStore operation without sufficient charge
to complete the Store. This corrupt the data stored in nvSRAM
and Status Register. To resume normal functionality, the WRSR
instruction must be issued to update the nonvolatile bits BP0,
BP1 and WPEN in the Status Register.
SRAM Write
All writes to nvSRAM are carried out on the SRAM and do not
use up any endurance cycles of the nonvolatile memory. This
enables the user to perform infinite write operations. A write cycle
is performed through the WRITE instruction. The WRITE
instruction is issued through the SI pin of the nvSRAM and
consists of the WRITE opcode, 3 bytes of address, and 1 byte of
data. Write to nvSRAM is done at SPI bus speed with zero cycle
delay.
CY14B101P allows burst mode writes to be performed through
SPI. This enables write operations on consecutive addresses
without issuing a new WRITE instruction. When the last address
in memory is reached in burst mode, the address rolls over to
0x0000 and the device continues to write.
The SPI write cycle sequence is defined in the memory access
section of SPI protocol description.

Upon completion of the STORE operation, the nvSRAM memory
access is inhibited for t
LZHSB
time after HSB pin returns HIGH.
The HSB pin must be left unconnected if not used.
RECALL Operation
A RECALL operation transfers the data stored in the nonvolatile
QuantumTrap elements to the SRAM. In CY14B101P, a
RECALL may be initiated in two ways: Hardware RECALL,
initiated on power-up; and Software RECALL, initiated by a SPI
RECALL instruction.
Internally, RECALL is a two step procedure. First, the SRAM data
is cleared. Next, the nonvolatile information is transferred into the
SRAM cells. All memory accesses are inhibited while a RECALL
cycle is in progress. The RECALL operation does not alter the
data in the nonvolatile elements.

Hardware RECALL (Power-Up)
During Power-up, when V
CC
crosses V
SWITCH
, an automatic
RECALL sequence is initiated, which transfers the content of
nonvolatile memory on to the SRAM.
A Power-up RECALL cycle takes t
FA
time to complete and the
memory access is disabled during this time. HSB pin is used to
detect the Ready status of the device.
V
SS
Software STORE Operation
Software STORE allows the user to trigger a STORE operation
through a special SPI instruction. STORE operation is initiated
by executing STORE instruction irrespective of whether a write
has been performed since the last NV operation.
A STORE cycle takes t
STORE
time to complete, during which all
the memory accesses to nvSRAM are inhibited. The RDY bit of
the Status Register or the HSB pin may be polled to find the
Ready/Busy status of the nvSRAM. After the t
STORE
cycle time
is completed, the SRAM is activated again for read and write
operations.
Software RECALL
Software RECALL allows the user to initiate a RECALL operation
to restore the content of nonvolatile memory on to the SRAM. In
CY14B101P, this can be done by issuing a RECALL instruction
in SPI.
A Software RECALL takes t
RECALL
time to complete during
which all memory accesses to nvSRAM are inhibited. The
controller must provide sufficient delay for the RECALL operation
to complete before issuing any memory access instructions.
Disabling and Enabling AutoStore
If the application does not require the AutoStore feature, it can
be disabled in CY14B101P by using the ASDISB instruction. If
this is done, the nvSRAM does not perform a STORE operation
at power-down.
AutoStore can be re-enabled by using the ASENB instruction.
However, these operations are not nonvolatile and if the user
needs this setting to survive the power cycle, a STORE operation
must be performed following AutoStore Disable or Enable
operation.
Note
CY14B101P comes from the factory with AutoStore
Enabled and with 0x00 written in all cells.
Note
If AutoStore is disabled and V
CAP
is not required, then the
V
CAP
pin must be left open. The V
CAP
pin must never be
connected to ground. The Power-Up RECALL operation cannot
be disabled in any case.
Hardware STORE and HSB Pin Operation
The HSB pin in CY14B101P is used to control and acknowledge
STORE operations. If no STORE/RECALL is in progress, this pin
can be used to request a Hardware STORE cycle. When the
HSB pin is driven LOW, the CY14B101P conditionally initiates a
STORE operation after t
DELAY
duration. A STORE cycle starts
only if a write to the SRAM was performed since the last STORE
or RECALL cycle. Reads and writes to the memory are inhibited
for t
STORE
duration or as long as HSB pin is LOW. The HSB pin
also acts as an open drain driver (internal 100 k weak pull-up
resistor) that is internally driven LOW to indicate a busy condition
when the STORE (initiated by any means) is in progress.
Note
After each Hardware and Software STORE operation HSB
is driven HIGH for a short time (t
HHHD
) with standard output high
current and then remains HIGH by an internal 100 k pull-up
resistor.
Note
For successful last data byte STORE, a hardware store
should be initiated atleast one clock cycle after the last data bit
D0 is received.
