Product details
Overview
DS1225AD-150IND+ 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 access time, ±10% VCC tolerance (4.5V–5.5V), and industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). It replaces volatile SRAMs and EEPROMs in real-time data logging systems where power loss protection is critical.
For engineers reviewing the DS1225AD-150IND+ datasheet, DS1225AD-150IND+ pinout, DS1225AD-150IND+ application, or DS1225AD-150IND+ equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 10-year data retention without external power, automatic write protection during VCC decay, no write-cycle limits, full compatibility with 28-pin DIP-based microprocessor buses, and seamless substitution for 2764 EPROM/2864 EEPROM footprints.
Technical Context
The DS1225AD-150IND+ implements a self-contained power-fail detection and switchover architecture: internal circuitry continuously monitors VCC, triggers unconditional write protection when voltage drops below 4.25 V (VTP), and connects the lithium cell to retain RAM contents when VCC falls below ~3.0 V. During power-up, the lithium source disconnects automatically once VCC exceeds ~3.0 V.
It operates as a byte-wide parallel memory with standard SRAM timing-read cycles require CE and OE low with WE high; write cycles require CE and WE low-and supports full TTL-compatible signaling (VIH ≥ 2.2 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V) and 5 V ±10% supply operation without external support components.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 65,536 bits (8,192 × 8), directly replaces 8k × 8 volatile SRAM or EEPROM |
| Access Time | 70 ns - enables direct interface with 14 MHz Z80, 8085, or 68000-based systems without wait states |
| VCC Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V (±10%) - accommodates wide-input industrial power rails without regulation |
| Data Retention | 10 years minimum without external power - guaranteed by design, enabled only after first VCC application |
| Write Cycles | Unlimited - no wear-out mechanism; no endurance derating over time or temperature |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C (IND grade) - qualified for embedded control, instrumentation, and telecom infrastructure |
| Package | 28-pin 720-mil extended DIP - matches 2764 EPROM/2864 EEPROM footprint; wave-solder compatible |
Pinout & Package
DS1225AD-150IND+ uses a JEDEC-standard 28-pin Extended Dual In-line Package (EDIP), 720 mil width, with through-hole mounting and wave-solder compatibility. Pin 1 is marked with a notch or dot; NC pins are internally unconnected and must remain floating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A12 | Address Inputs | 13-bit address bus for selecting one of 8,192 bytes; TTL-compatible, no pull-ups required |
| DQ0–DQ7 | Bidirectional Data Bus | 8-bit parallel I/O; high-impedance when CE or OE inactive; drives TTL loads directly |
| CE | Chip Enable | Active-low chip select; initiates read/write when low; disables outputs and reduces ICCS2 to 3–5 mA when high |
| WE | Write Enable | Active-low write strobe; controls data latching; forces outputs to high-Z if asserted during read |
| OE | Output Enable | Active-low output gate; allows read data to appear on DQ lines only when CE and OE both low |
| VCC | Power Supply | +5 V ±10% input; powers logic and RAM array; monitored for fail-detect and battery switchover |
| GND | Ground Reference | Signal and power return; must be low-inductance connection to avoid noise-induced corruption |
| NC | No Connect | Pins 14 and 24 are unconnected; must not be soldered or tied to any net |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Automatic Power-Fail Protection | Hardware-level VCC monitoring triggers immediate write lockout and lithium switchover within 1.5 µs of out-of-tolerance detection |
| Freshness Seal | Lithium cell electrically disconnected at factory; full energy capacity preserved until first VCC application > VTP |
| Zero-Overhead Substitution | Pinout and timing identical to 2764 EPROM and 2864 EEPROM - no PCB or firmware changes required |
| Wide-Voltage Operation | Functional across full 4.5–5.5 V range - eliminates need for tight-regulation LDO in noisy industrial supplies |
| Industrial Temperature Qualification | Guaranteed operation and data retention over –40°C to +85°C - validated per MIL-STD-883 methods |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar nonvolatile SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DS1225Y-70IND+ | Same 64k NV SRAM architecture but with 100 ns access time and 5 V ±5% supply (4.75–5.25 V) | Lower speed grade; suited for legacy 8-bit systems with relaxed timing budgets | Select when system clock < 10 MHz and tighter VCC regulation is available |
| STK12C68-A70I | 64k NV SRAM with 70 ns access, 5 V ±10%, but uses SOIC-28 package instead of DIP | Surface-mount only; requires PCB redesign; lacks EDIP mechanical compatibility | Choose for space-constrained designs where through-hole DIP is not feasible |
Compared with DS1225Y-70IND+ and STK12C68-A70I, the DS1225AD-150IND+ uniquely combines 70 ns speed, ±10% VCC tolerance, industrial temperature rating, and 28-pin DIP packaging - enabling drop-in upgrades in legacy systems without layout or firmware modification.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed data retention period for DS1225AD-150IND+?
The DS1225AD-150IND+ guarantees a minimum 10-year data retention period in the absence of external power, measured cumulatively from the time VCC is first applied. This retention is enabled by the internal lithium energy source, which remains disconnected until initial power-up to preserve full capacity. The specification is design-guaranteed and not 100% tested per unit.
Does DS1225AD-150IND+ require external circuitry for battery backup operation?
No, the DS1225AD-150IND+ requires no external circuitry for battery backup operation. Its integrated lithium cell and power-fail detection/control circuitry operate autonomously. The device monitors VCC continuously and switches to battery power within 1.5 µs when voltage drops below 4.25 V, ensuring uninterrupted data retention without additional components.
Is DS1225AD-150IND+ pin-compatible with standard 28-pin EPROMs and EEPROMs?
Yes, the DS1225AD-150IND+ is pin-compatible with the 2764 EPROM and 2864 EEPROM, sharing identical pin assignments, signal definitions, and 28-pin extended DIP footprint. This allows direct substitution in existing sockets without PCB or firmware changes, while delivering faster 70 ns access and unlimited write cycles compared to those older devices.
What is the operating voltage range for DS1225AD-150IND+?
The DS1225AD-150IND+ operates over a VCC range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V (±10%), supporting wide-input industrial power supplies. It provides full functional capability above 4.5 V and initiates automatic write protection when VCC drops to 4.25 V. This wider tolerance eliminates the need for tight-regulation LDOs in ruggedized applications.
How does the "Freshness Seal" function in DS1225AD-150IND+?
The Freshness Seal in DS1225AD-150IND+ electrically disconnects the internal lithium energy source until VCC is first applied above the threshold voltage (VTP = 4.25–4.5 V). This preserves full battery capacity during storage and shipping. Once powered, the seal is permanently removed, and the lithium cell becomes active for backup operation during subsequent power failures.
