Product details
Overview
DS1225AB-200IND from Maxim Integrated is a 64kbit (8k × 8) nonvolatile static RAM with integrated lithium battery backup, JEDEC-standard 28-pin extended DIP package, 70 ns read/write access time, ±5% VCC tolerance (4.75–5.25 V), and industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). It replaces volatile SRAMs or EEPROMs in data-logging, metering, and configuration storage applications without external support circuitry.
For engineers reviewing the DS1225AB-200IND datasheet, DS1225AB-200IND pinout, DS1225AB-200IND application, or DS1225AB-200IND equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 10-year data retention during power loss, automatic write protection below 4.5 V, unlimited write cycles, low-power CMOS operation, and direct compatibility with 2764 EPROM/2864 EEPROM footprints.
Technical Context
The DS1225AB-200IND integrates self-contained lithium energy source and voltage-monitoring circuitry that detects VCC decay below 4.5 V and automatically switches to battery backup while enabling unconditional write protection. All inputs become "don't care" and outputs go high-impedance during power failure.
It operates as a fully static, byte-wide parallel memory with standard SRAM timing: CE/OE/WE control logic, 13 address lines (A0–A12), 8 bidirectional data lines (DQ0–DQ7), and no wait states. The device requires no external capacitors, regulators, or firmware intervention for nonvolatility management.
Key Specifications

|---|---|---|
| A0–A12 | Address Inputs | 13-bit address bus for selecting one of 8,192 memory locations |
| DQ0–DQ7 | Bidirectional Data I/O | 8-bit parallel data path; high-impedance when disabled by CE/OE |
| CE | Chip Enable | Active-low chip select; disables all outputs and reduces standby current when high |
| WE | Write Enable | Active-low write strobe; controls data latching and output driver disable during writes |
| OE | Output Enable | Active-low output enable; allows read data to drive bus only when CE and OE are both low |
| VCC | Power Supply | +5 V ±5% main supply; powers logic and RAM core; triggers lithium activation on first power-up |
| GND | Ground | Reference return for all signals and internal switching circuitry |
| NC | No Connect | Pins 14 and 24 are unconnected; must remain floating per datasheet |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar nonvolatile SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DS1225AD-70IND+ | Wider VCC range (4.5–5.5 V, ±10%), lower write-protection threshold (4.25 V) | Better suited for noisy or loosely regulated 5 V supplies; slightly reduced noise margin at low VCC | Select DS1225AD-70IND+ if system VCC varies beyond ±5% or requires earlier backup activation |
| STK12C68-AW50I | Same 8k × 8 NV SRAM architecture, 50 ns access, but uses capacitor-based backup (no lithium) | Shorter retention (up to 72 hours without power); requires external capacitor and charge circuit | Choose STK12C68-AW50I only if lithium-free design is mandated and short-term retention suffices |
Compared with DS1225AD-70IND+, the DS1225AB-200IND offers tighter VCC regulation and higher write-protection voltage-critical for stable 5 V systems-while STK12C68-AW50I trades long-term retention for RoHS-compliant, capacitor-based backup requiring additional board space and charge management.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed data retention period for DS1225AB-200IND?
The DS1225AB-200IND guarantees a minimum of 10 years of data retention in the absence of external power, based on its integrated lithium energy source and hermetically sealed construction. This retention period begins upon first application of VCC and accumulates only during power-off intervals. The device's freshness seal ensures full battery capacity is preserved until initial power-up, and the specification is guaranteed by design-not statistical sampling.
Does DS1225AB-200IND require external components to function as nonvolatile memory?
No, DS1225AB-200IND requires no external capacitors, regulators, supervisors, or firmware drivers to deliver nonvolatile operation. Its integrated lithium cell, voltage-monitoring circuitry, and automatic power-fail switchover are fully self-contained. Only standard 5 V ±5% supply, ground, address/data/control signals, and proper PCB layout per Maxim's land pattern MDT28+2 are needed for full functionality.
How does DS1225AB-200IND handle power failure during a write operation?
During a power failure, DS1225AB-200IND detects VCC decay below 4.5 V within 1.5 µs and immediately disables write capability by asserting unconditional write protection. All address and data inputs become "don't care," outputs enter high-impedance state, and the lithium source powers the RAM core to preserve contents. This prevents partial writes or data corruption even if VCC collapses mid-cycle.
Is DS1225AB-200IND pin-compatible with standard EPROM or EEPROM devices?
Yes, DS1225AB-200IND uses the same 28-pin DIP footprint and pinout as the 2764 EPROM and 2864 EEPROM, enabling direct substitution in existing designs. Address lines A0–A12, data lines DQ0–DQ7, and control signals CE, OE, and WE align exactly-no PCB modification or adapter is required to replace those legacy devices with DS1225AB-200IND.
What is the difference between DS1225AB-200IND and DS1225AD-200IND?
The DS1225AB-200IND specifies a tighter ±5% VCC tolerance (4.75–5.25 V) and higher write-protection threshold (4.50–4.75 V), whereas DS1225AD-200IND supports ±10% VCC (4.50–5.50 V) with lower write-protection voltage (4.25–4.50 V). Both share identical 70 ns speed grade, IND temperature range, and pinout-but DS1225AB-200IND is optimized for stable, well-regulated 5 V systems demanding higher noise immunity.
