READ MODE
The DS1350 devices execute a read cycle whenever
(Write Enable) is inact ive (high) and
(Chip
Ena ble ) and
(Output Enable) are active (low). The unique address specified by the 19 address inputs
(A0 -A18) defines which o f t he 524,288 byte s of d ata is t o be accessed. Valid data w ill be a vailable to the

that

control signal should be kept inactive (high)
during write cycles to avoid bus contention. However, if the output drivers are enabled (
and
active ) then

DATA RETENTION MODE
The DS1350AB pro vides full functional capability for VCC great er than 4.75V and write protects by 4. 5V.
The DS1350Y provides full funct ional capability for VCC greater than 4.5V and write prot ect s by 4.25V.
Data is maintained in the absence of VCC without any additional support circuitry. The NV SRAMs
constantly monitor VCC. Should the supply voltage decay, the NV SRAMs automatically write protect
themse lves, all input s beco me “don’t care,” and all out put s beco me high-impeda nce. As VCC falls below
approximately 2.7V, the power switching circuit connects the lithium energy source to RAM to retain
data. During po wer-u p, w he n V CC r ise s above ap pr o ximate ly 2.7V , t he power switching circuit con nect s

SYSTEM POWER MONITORING
DS1350 devices have the ability to monitor the external VCC power supply. When an out-of-tolerance
power supply condit io n is detected, the NV SRAMs war n a pro cessor-based system of impending po wer

BATTERY MONITORING
The DS1350 devices automatically perform periodic battery voltage monitoring on a 24-hour time
interval. Such monitoring begins within tREC after VCC rises above VTP and is suspended when power
failure occurs.
After each 24-hour period has elapsed, the battery is connected to an internal 1MΩ test resistor for one
second. During this one second, if battery voltage falls below the battery voltage trip point (2.6V), the
battery warning output
is asserted. Once asserted,
remains act ive unt il the module is replaced.
The bat tery is still ret ested after each VCC power-up , howe ver, even if
