GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The SA56600-42 is designed to protect SRAM data in computer
systems during periods of sagging power supply voltages and power
outages. When the power supply voltage drops to typically 4.2 V, the
CS output goes to a logic LOW state pulling CE to a LOW state,
disabling the SRAM device. In addition, a reset logic LOW is asserted
for system use. If the supply voltage drops further, to 3.3 V typically
or lower, the SA56600-42 switches the system’s operation from the
main power supply source to the Lithium back-up battery. As the
main supply is restored and the voltage rises to 3.3 V or higher, the
SRAM support voltage transfers from the Lithium back-up battery to
the main supply. When the main supply voltage rises to greater than
typically 4.2 V, the CS output goes to a logic HIGH state for SRAM
CE control. Reset assertion is released and normal operation is
resumed. This sequence ensures reliable preservation of SRAM
data during periods of supply deficiency and interruptions.
The SA56600-42 is offered in the SO8 surface mount package.
