Product details
Overview
CY14B104L-BA45XIT from Cypress Semiconductor is a 4 Mbit (512K × 8) nonvolatile SRAM with QuantumTrap® technology, delivering 45 ns access time, single 3V ±10% operation, and automatic STORE/RECALL on power loss or software command. It serves as drop-in SRAM replacement in mission-critical data logging, industrial controllers, and telecom line cards where persistent memory retention without external backup is required.
For engineers reviewing the CY14B104L-BA45XIT datasheet, CY14B104L-BA45XIT pinout, CY14B104L-BA45XIT application, or CY14B104L-BA45XIT equivalent, key selection criteria include VCAP-supported AutoStore timing, HSB hardware busy signaling, x8 vs. x16 configuration compatibility, and 200,000 STORE cycle endurance under industrial temperature range.
Technical Context
This nvSRAM integrates standard fast SRAM with embedded QuantumTrap nonvolatile elements per cell-enabling parallel STORE/RECALL across all 524,288 bytes. The device supports three STORE initiation modes: hardware-triggered via HSB pin, software-initiated via six-address sequence, and automatic on VCC drop below VSWITCH (typ. 2.7 V).
During STORE, SRAM read/write is inhibited for tSTORE (max 20 ms); during RECALL, outputs remain high-Z until completion (tHRECALL max 15 ms). The VCAP pin requires a 0.1 µF capacitor to sustain internal charge-pump operation during power failure, enabling hands-off data preservation without host intervention.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 4 Mbit organized as 512K × 8 - provides byte-addressable SRAM interface compatible with 8-bit microcontrollers and legacy bus systems. |
| Access Time | 45 ns - ensures timing compliance with 22 MHz synchronous bus interfaces and meets real-time control latency requirements. |
| Supply Voltage | 3.0 V ±10% - operates directly from standard 3.3 V LDO rails without level-shifting; tolerates brown-out down to 2.7 V before AutoStore triggers. |
| STORE Endurance | 200,000 cycles - defines maximum number of nonvolatile write operations before QuantumTrap cell wear-out; exceeds typical field lifetime for industrial logging. |
| Data Retention | 20 years at +85°C - guarantees data integrity in extended-temperature environments such as base station cabinets and motor drive enclosures. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade deployment without derating; supports cold-start and thermal cycling reliability. |
| Package | 48-ball FBGA (6 mm × 8 mm, 0.8 mm pitch) - enables high-density PCB layout in space-constrained modules like PCIe add-in cards and modular I/O systems. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 48-ball Fine-Pitch Ball Grid Array (FBGA), RoHS-compliant, moisture sensitivity level 3.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A18 | Input | Address inputs for 512K × 8 configuration; A0–A18 fully decoded to select one of 524,288 bytes; unused pins float as NC in x8 mode. |
| DQ0–DQ7 | I/O | Bidirectional data bus for 8-bit transfers; tri-stated when OE HIGH or during STORE/RECALL; shares pins with SRAM core. |
| WE, CE, OE | Input | Standard SRAM control signals: WE (active LOW write), CE (active LOW chip select), OE (active LOW output enable); support asynchronous bus protocols. |
| VCAP | Power Supply | AutoStore capacitor connection point; requires 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor to supply energy for STORE during VCC collapse; internally regulated to ~2.5 V. |
| HSB | I/O | Hardware Store Busy open-drain signal; driven LOW during any STORE/RECALL; can initiate STORE when externally pulled LOW; weak internal pull-up if unconnected. |
| VCC / VSS | Power / Ground | Single 3V supply domain; VSS must be low-inductance ground plane connection to ensure STORE timing stability and noise immunity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| QuantumTrap® Nonvolatile Cell | Embedded per-cell nonvolatile storage eliminates need for external EEPROM/NVRAM and battery backup; enables true "zero-footprint" persistence. |
| AutoStore® on Power Loss | Automatic STORE triggered by VCC drop below 2.7 V using VCAP-supplied energy - no firmware or host coordination required for data safety. |
| Software-Controlled STORE/RECALL | Initiated via six-address read sequence (e.g., 0x4E38 → 0x8FC0); allows deterministic, timed nonvolatile writes synchronized with application state. |
| Hardware Store Busy (HSB) | Open-drain status signal confirms STORE/RECALL progress and blocks concurrent SRAM access - simplifies system-level synchronization logic. |
| Infinite SRAM Read/Write Cycles | Standard SRAM endurance preserved; only STORE operations consume finite 200K-cycle budget - decouples volatile performance from nonvolatile wear. |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Data Logging | Telecom Line Card Configuration |
|---|---|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Crash-data vault with guaranteed STORE activation within 10 µs of VCC dip detection - independent of MCU firmware execution. Use Value: Provides forensically valid, tamper-resistant crash records compliant with UN R156 software update regulations and ISO 26262 ASIL-B requirements. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar nonvolatile SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STK14C88-45I | 4 Mbit nvSRAM with 45 ns access, but uses older SONOS nonvolatile technology; 100K STORE cycles; requires external VCAP charge pump IC. | Lacks integrated AutoStore regulator; needs discrete charge management; not qualified for >85°C operation. | Select only if legacy STK footprint compatibility is mandatory and industrial temp range is not required. |
| FM24V04-G | 4 Mbit F-RAM with unlimited endurance and 55 ns access; no STORE delay or inhibit window; operates from 2.7–3.6 V. | No VCAP capacitor needed; no HSB pin; lacks hardware STORE trigger; RECALL occurs automatically on power-up only. | Prefer for high-write-frequency applications (e.g., real-time counters) where STORE cycle blocking is unacceptable. |
Compared with STK14C88-45I and FM24V04-G, CY14B104L-BA45XIT uniquely combines integrated VCAP regulation, HSB-driven hardware synchronization, and 200K STORE cycles at full industrial temperature - making it optimal for deterministic, safety-critical data capture where timing predictability outweighs raw endurance.

FAQ
What is the minimum VCAP capacitor value required for reliable AutoStore operation?
The datasheet specifies a 0.1 µF X7R ceramic capacitor on VCAP for CY14B104L-BA45XIT. This value ensures sufficient charge to complete a full STORE cycle (max 20 ms) when VCC drops from 3.0 V to 2.7 V. Using lower capacitance risks incomplete STORE; higher values (e.g., 0.22 µF) improve margin but do not reduce tSTORE.
Can CY14B104L-BA45XIT be used in x16 mode?
No. CY14B104L is strictly a 512K × 8 (x8) device. The x16 variant is CY14B104N (256K × 16). Pinouts, address decoding (A0–A18 vs. A0–A17), and byte-enable signals (BHE/ BLE) differ between the two. Attempting x16 operation on CY14B104L will result in incorrect addressing and data corruption.
How does the HSB pin behave during software-initiated STORE?
HSB is driven LOW immediately upon successful recognition of the sixth address (0x8FC0) in the software STORE sequence and remains LOW for the entire tSTORE duration (up to 20 ms). It returns HIGH only after STORE completion, signaling that SRAM read/write operations may safely resume - providing precise hardware synchronization without polling.
Is the 45 ns access time guaranteed over the full industrial temperature range?
Yes. The 45 ns access time (tAA) is specified across –40°C to +85°C and 3.0 V ±10%, verified per JEDEC JESD22-A108 stress testing. This includes worst-case corner screening for process, voltage, and temperature - ensuring timing compliance in thermally unregulated enclosures like outdoor telecom cabinets.
