11 / 19 page  11 STK14C88 Feb, 2008 Document Control #ML0014 Rev 2.0 AutoStore INHIBIT MODE If an automatic STORE on power loss is not required, then VCC can be tied to ground and sys- tem power applied to VCAP (Figure 2). This is the AutoStore Inhibit Mode, in which the AutoStore func- tion is disabled. If the STK14C88 is operated in this configuration, references to VCC should be changed to VCAP throughout this data sheet. In this mode, STORE operations may be triggered through soft- ware control. It is not permissible to change between these three options “on the fly.” Figure 2: AutoStore Inhibit Mode HSB OPERATION The STK14C88 provides the HSB pin for controlling and acknowledging the STORE operations. The HSB pin can be used to request a hardware STORE cycle. When the HSB pin is driven low, the STK14C88 will conditionally initiate a STORE operation after t DELAY; an actual STORE cycle will only begin if a WRITE to the SRAM took place since the last STORE or RECALL cycle. The HSB pin has a very resistive pullup and is internally driven low to indicate a busy condition while the STORE (initiated by any means) is in progress. Pull up this pin with an external 10K ohm resistor to VCAP if HSB is used as a driver. SRAM READ and WRITE operations that are in progress when HSB is driven low by any means are given time to complete before the STORE operation is initiated. After HSB goes low, the STK14C88 will continue SRAM operations for t DELAY. During t DELAY, multiple SRAM READ operations may take place. If a WRITE is in progress when HSB is pulled low it will 17 1 16 32 31 30 be allowed a time, t DELAY, to complete. However, any SRAM WRITE cycles requested after HSB goes low will be inhibited until HSB returns high. The HSB pin can be used to synchronize multiple STK14C88s while using a single larger capacitor. To operate in this mode the HSB pin should be con- nected together to the HSB pins from the other STK14C88s. An external pull-up resistor to + 5V is required since HSB acts as an open drain pull down. The V CAP pins from the other STK14C88 parts can be tied together and share a single capacitor. The capacitor size must be scaled by the number of devices connected to it. When any one of the STK14C88s detects a power loss and asserts HSB, the common HSB pin will cause all parts to request a STORE cycle (a STORE will take place in those STK14C88s that have been written since the last nonvolatile cycle). During any STORE operation, regardless of how it was initiated, the STK14C88 will continue to drive the HSB pin low, releasing it only when the STORE is complete. Upon completion of the STORE operation the STK14C88 will remain disabled until the HSB pin returns high. If HSB is not used, it should be left unconnected. BEST PRACTICES nvSRAM products have been used effectively for over 15 years. While ease-of-use is one of the prod- uct’s main system values, experience gained work- ing with hundreds of applications has resulted in the following suggestions as best practices: • The non-volatile cells in an nvSRAM are pro- grammed on the test floor during final test and quality assurance. Incoming inspection routines at customer or contract manufacturer’s sites will sometimes reprogram these values. Final NV pat- terns are typically repeating patterns of AA, 55, 00, FF, A5, or 5A. End product’s firmware should not assume an NV array is in a set programmed state. Routines that check memory content val- ues to determine first time system configuration, cold or warm boot status, etc. should always pro- gram a unique NV pattern (e.g., complex 4-byte pattern of 46 E6 49 53 hex or more random bytes) as part of the final system manufacturing test to ensure these system routines work consis- tently. |
