power-on-recall, the MPU must be active or the WE held inactive

until the MPU comes out of reset.
To reduce 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. Software initiated STORE cycles are performed

regardless of whether a write operation has taken place. The

HSB signal is monitored by the system to detect if an AutoStore

cycle is in progress.

Hardware STORE (HSB) Operation

The CY14B104K/CY14B104M provides the HSB pin to control

and acknowledge the STORE operations. The HSB pin is used

to request a Hardware STORE cycle. When the HSB pin is driven

LOW, the CY14B104K/CY14B104M conditionally initiates a

STORE operation after t

DELAY

. An actual STORE cycle begins

only if a write to the SRAM has taken place since the last STORE

or RECALL cycle. The HSB pin also acts as an open drain driver

that is internally driven LOW to indicate a busy condition when

the STORE (initiated by any means) is in progress.
SRAM read and write operations, that are in progress when HSB

is driven LOW by any means, are given time t

DELAY

to complete

before the STORE operation is initiated. However, any SRAM

write cycles requested after HSB goes LOW are inhibited until

HSB returns HIGH. In case the write latch is not set, HSB is not

driven LOW by the CY14B104K/CY14B104M but any SRAM

read and write cycles are inhibited until HSB is returned HIGH by

MPU or external source.
During any STORE operation, regardless of how it is initiated,

the CY14B104KA/CY14B104MA continues to drive the HSB pin

LOW, releasing it only when the STORE is complete. Upon

completion of the STORE operation, the

CY14B104K/CY14B104M remains disabled until the HSB pin

returns HIGH. Leave the HSB unconnected if it is not used.

Hardware RECALL (Power Up)

During power up or after any low power condition

(V

CC

< V

SWITCH

), an internal RECALL request is latched. When

V

CC

again exceeds the V

SWITCH

on powerup, a RECALL cycle

is automatically initiated and takes t

HRECALL

to complete. During

this time, the HSB pin is driven LOW by the HSB driver and all

reads and writes to nvSRAM are inhibited.

Software STORE

Data is transferred from the SRAM to the nonvolatile memory by

a software address sequence. The CY14B104K/CY14B104M

Software STORE cycle is initiated by executing sequential CE or

OE controlled read cycles from six specific address locations in

exact order. 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, further

input and output are disabled until the cycle is completed.
Because a sequence of reads from specific addresses is used

for STORE initiation, it is important that no other read or write

accesses intervene in the sequence, or the sequence is aborted

and no STORE or RECALL takes place.

To initiate the Software STORE cycle, the following read

sequence must be performed:

1. Read address 0x4E38 Valid READ
2. Read address 0xB1C7 Valid READ
3. Read address 0x83E0 Valid READ
4. Read address 0x7C1F Valid READ
5. Read address 0x703F Valid READ
6. Read address 0x8FC0 Initiate STORE cycle

The software sequence may be clocked with CE or OE controlled

reads. Both CE and OE must be toggled for the sequence to be

executed. After the sixth address in the sequence is entered, the

STORE cycle starts and the chip is disabled. It is important to use

read cycles and not write cycles in the sequence. The SRAM is

activated again for read and write operations after the t

STORE

cycle time.

Software RECALL

Data is transferred from the nonvolatile memory to the SRAM by

a software address sequence. A software RECALL cycle is

initiated with a sequence of read operations in a manner similar

to the Software STORE initiation. To initiate the RECALL cycle,

perform the following sequence of CE or OE controlled read

operations:

1. Read address 0x4E38 Valid READ
2. Read address 0xB1C7 Valid READ
3. Read address 0x83E0 Valid READ
4. Read address 0x7C1F Valid READ
5. Read address 0x703F Valid READ
6. Read address 0x4C63 Initiate RECALL cycle

Internally, RECALL is a two step procedure. First, the SRAM data

is cleared; then, the nonvolatile information is transferred into the

SRAM cells. After the t

RECALL

cycle time, the SRAM is again

ready for read and write operations. The RECALL operation

does not alter the data in the nonvolatile elements.
