Product details
Overview
CY14B108L-ZS20XI from Cypress Semiconductor is an 8-Mbit nonvolatile SRAM (nvSRAM) with QuantumTrap technology, organized as 1024 K × 8, 20 ns access time, single 3 V (+20% / –10%) supply, and industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). It performs automatic STORE on power-down using a VCAP capacitor, supports software/hardware STORE/RECALL, and delivers 20-year data retention with 1 million STORE cycles - deployed in industrial PLCs, medical data loggers, and telecom control plane memory.
For engineers reviewing the CY14B108L-ZS20XI datasheet, CY14B108L-ZS20XI pinout, CY14B108L-ZS20XI application, or CY14B108L-ZS20XI equivalent, key selection criteria include AutoStore timing dependency on VCAP capacitance, HSB-driven hardware STORE arbitration, ×8 vs ×16 configuration pin compatibility, and absence of functional AutoStore Disable per errata.
Technical Context
The CY14B108L-ZS20XI integrates parallel SRAM and QuantumTrap nonvolatile cells per bit, enabling simultaneous STORE/RECALL across all 8 Mbits. Its architecture inhibits SRAM access during STORE/RECALL, uses internal voltage regulation to charge VCAP, and requires tDELAY (≥100 ns) between HSB assertion and STORE initiation.
AutoStore triggers when VCC drops below VSWITCH (2.7 V min), disconnecting VCAP from VCC and powering the STORE operation from the capacitor. The HSB pin serves dual roles: open-drain busy indicator (driven LOW during STORE) and active-LOW STORE request input, with internal 100 kΩ pull-up and tHHHD (100 ns) high-drive pulse post-STORE.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Density | 8 Mbit (1024 K × 8 organization); enables byte-wide interface without external data multiplexing. |
| Access Time | 20 ns; guarantees SRAM read latency under worst-case industrial temperature and voltage conditions. |
| Supply Voltage | 3.0 V ±10% / +20%; operates directly from standard 3.3 V rails with margin for brown-out resilience. |
| Data Retention | 20 years at +85°C; validated retention without refresh, critical for unattended field-deployed systems. |
| STORE Endurance | 1 million cycles; defines maximum guaranteed nonvolatile write count before QuantumTrap wear-out. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C; qualified for industrial environments without derating or thermal management overhead. |
| VCAP Capacitance | 0.1 µF ceramic; minimum value required to complete AutoStore at VCC = 2.7 V and T = +85°C. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 44-pin Thin Small Outline Package (TSOP Type II), RoHS-compliant, lead-free.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A19 | Address Input | 20-bit address bus for 1024 K × 8 mode; A19 used only in ×8 configuration (not ×16). |
| DQ0–DQ7 | Bidirectional Data I/O | 8-bit parallel data path; tristated when OE HIGH or during STORE/RECALL. |
| WE | Write Enable (Active LOW) | Controls SRAM write latching; must be held HIGH during AutoStore to avoid bus contention. |
| CE | Chip Enable (Active LOW) | Selects device for read/write; deassertion disables outputs and reduces standby current. |
| OE | Output Enable (Active LOW) | Enables DQ drivers during reads; HIGH forces high-impedance state independent of CE/WE. |
| HSB | Hardware STORE Busy | Open-drain status output (LOW = STORE in progress); also accepts external LOW pulse to trigger STORE. |
| VCAP | AutoStore Capacitor Supply | Internal regulator output; connects to 0.1 µF capacitor to sustain STORE during VCC collapse. |
| VCC / VSS | Power / Ground | Single 3 V supply domain; VSS must be low-inductance connection to minimize STORE timing jitter. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Hands-off AutoStore | Zero-software intervention STORE on power loss, enabled by internal VCAP regulation and VSWITCH detection. |
| Software STORE/RECALL | Non-disruptive firmware-controlled STORE/RECALL via address sequence, usable during system idle. |
| Infinite SRAM endurance | Unlimited read/write cycles to volatile array - no wear leveling or ECC required for SRAM operations. |
| Hardware STORE arbitration | HSB pin synchronizes external STORE requests with ongoing SRAM writes, preventing data corruption. |
| Industrial qualification | Full temperature and voltage range validation per AEC-Q100 stress test profiles for long-life embedded use. |
Applications
| Industrial Programmable Logic Controllers | Medical Diagnostic Data Loggers |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar nvSRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STK14C88-3J | 55 ns access time, 3.3 V ±10%, 10-year retention, no HSB pin, requires external STORE command pulse. | Lacks hardware STORE arbitration and AutoStore; requires MCU GPIO coordination for STORE timing. | Choose when cost sensitivity outweighs STORE latency and system-level STORE reliability requirements. |
| FM24V10-G | F-RAM-based, 55 ns access, unlimited STORE endurance, but 10-year retention at +70°C only, no VCAP dependency. | No capacitor or voltage monitoring needed; however, retention spec does not cover full industrial temperature range. | Prefer where frequent STOREs dominate (e.g., sensor sampling), but verify retention compliance at +85°C for mission-critical use. |
Compared with STK14C88-3J and FM24V10-G, CY14B108L-ZS20XI uniquely combines 20 ns speed, 20-year retention across –40°C to +85°C, and deterministic AutoStore via integrated VCAP regulation - making it optimal for systems requiring guaranteed data capture during rapid, uncontrolled power loss.

FAQ
What is the minimum VCAP capacitance required for reliable AutoStore operation?
The CY14B108L-ZS20XI requires a minimum 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor on the VCAP pin to guarantee successful AutoStore at VCC = 2.7 V and +85°C. Lower values risk incomplete STORE due to insufficient hold-up energy; X7R dielectric is recommended for stable capacitance over temperature and bias.
Does the CY14B108L-ZS20XI support ×16 data bus configuration?
No - CY14B108L-ZS20XI is the ×8 variant (1024 K × 8), with pins A0–A19 and DQ0–DQ7. The ×16 variant is CY14B108N (512 K × 16), which uses BHE/ BLE and DQ0–DQ15. Pinouts and address mapping are incompatible between L and N suffixes.
How does the HSB pin behave during a Software STORE?
During Software STORE, HSB is driven LOW by the device for the full STORE duration (tHSTORE ≤ 85 µs), then pulsed HIGH for tHHHD (100 ns) with full drive strength before reverting to weak internal pull-up. This behavior matches Hardware STORE and AutoStore, enabling uniform system-level busy detection.
Is the AutoStore Disable feature functional on this device?
No - per Errata on page 24 of datasheet 001-45523 Rev. *P, the AutoStore Disable feature does not work. If VCAP is unconnected, AutoStore attempts will fail and corrupt data; therefore, either connect the 0.1 µF capacitor or implement system-level power monitoring to suppress STORE requests.
