Product details
Overview
DS1245AB-70IND+ from Maxim Integrated is a 1024k (131,072 × 8) nonvolatile static RAM with lithium backup, industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), ±5% VCC tolerance (4.75V–5.25V), and 70 ns read/write access time. It replaces volatile SRAM, EEPROM, or Flash in mission-critical data logging and configuration storage applications where power loss immunity is essential.
For engineers reviewing the DS1245AB-70IND+ datasheet, DS1245AB-70IND+ pinout, DS1245AB-70IND+ application, or DS1245AB-70IND+ equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 10-year data retention without external power, automatic write-protection below 4.5 V, JEDEC-standard 32-pin DIP compatibility, and industrial-grade reliability for embedded control systems.
Technical Context
The DS1245AB-70IND+ integrates self-contained lithium battery, SRAM core, and voltage-monitoring control circuitry into a single JEDEC 32-pin EDIP package. Its power-fail detection triggers unconditional write protection when VCC drops below 4.50 V, and automatically switches to battery power below ~3.0 V.
It operates as a byte-wide parallel memory with full static timing: CE/OE/WE-controlled read/write cycles, no refresh required, and unlimited write endurance. The device uses standard TTL-compatible logic levels and supports microprocessor bus interfacing without external support circuitry.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 1024 kbit (131,072 × 8), directly replaces 128k × 8 SRAMs on existing 32-pin DIP footprints |
| Access Time | 70 ns - ensures compatibility with 14 MHz bus timing and eliminates wait states in legacy 8/16-bit microcontroller systems |
| VCC Range | 4.75 V to 5.25 V (±5%) - supports stable operation across industrial-grade 5 V supply rails with margin for ripple and dropouts |
| Data Retention | 10 years minimum without external power - enabled by factory-sealed lithium cell disconnected until first VCC application |
| Write Protection Threshold | 4.50 V to 4.75 V - guarantees early, deterministic lockout before system brownout corrupts memory writes |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial control, metering, and transportation electronics without derating |
| Package | 32-pin 740-mil Extended DIP (EDIP) - JEDEC-standard through-hole footprint with integrated battery and control logic |
Pinout & Package
DS1245AB-70IND+ uses a JEDEC-standard 32-pin Extended DIP (740-mil) package with integrated lithium battery and nonvolatile control circuitry. All pins conform to industry-standard SRAM pinout for drop-in replacement of volatile memory.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A16 | Address Inputs | 17-bit address bus supporting full 131,072-word addressing; compatible with standard microprocessor address lines |
| DQ0–DQ7 | Data I/O | Bi-directional 8-bit data bus with TTL-compatible drive strength (IOL = 2.0 mA, IOH = –1.0 mA) |
| CE | Chip Enable | Active-low chip select; initiates read/write when low and synchronized with WE/OE; controls standby current (50–150 µA) |
| WE | Write Enable | Active-low write strobe; determines write start/stop edges with CE; disables outputs during write if OE is active |
| OE | Output Enable | Active-low output enable; enables data drivers only during reads; high during writes prevents bus contention |
| VCC | Power Supply | +5 V supply input (4.75–5.25 V); powers SRAM and control logic; monitored continuously for fail detection |
| GND | Ground | Reference return path for all signals and power; decoupling required per standard SRAM layout practice |
| NC | No Connect | Pins 1, 2, 3, 17, 33, 34 - electrically isolated; no internal connection; must remain unconnected |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Automatic Power-Fail Write Protection | Hardware-enforced lockout triggered at 4.50–4.75 V; no firmware or external supervisor IC required |
| Lithium Cell Freshness Seal | Factory-disconnected battery retains full capacity until first VCC > 4.25 V application; extends usable life beyond 10 years |
| Unlimited Write Cycles | No wear-out mechanism - unlike EEPROM/Flash, supports continuous logging without endurance limits |
| Zero-Refresh Static Operation | Eliminates external refresh circuitry and timing constraints; simplifies interface design for microcontrollers and ASICs |
| Industrial Temperature Qualification | Full DC/AC specs guaranteed from –40°C to +85°C - validated for use in outdoor meters, PLCs, and rail infrastructure |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar nonvolatile SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DS1245Y-70IND+ | Wider VCC range (±10%, 4.5–5.5 V); lower write-protection threshold (4.25–4.5 V) | Better suited for systems with unstable 5 V supplies or tighter brownout margins | Select DS1245Y-70IND+ only if supply variation exceeds ±5%; otherwise DS1245AB-70IND+ offers tighter regulation and higher noise immunity |
| STK12C68-A70I | Same 1024k size and 70 ns speed but uses external capacitor-based backup; no integrated lithium | Requires external 0.1–1 F supercapacitor and charge circuit; shorter retention (up to 72 hours) | Choose STK12C68-A70I only when long-term retention is unnecessary and cost sensitivity outweighs board space and reliability needs |
Compared with DS1245Y-70IND+, the DS1245AB-70IND+ provides superior voltage noise margin and deterministic write-lock behavior; compared with STK12C68-A70I, it delivers true 10-year retention without external components or recharge management overhead.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed data retention period for DS1245AB-70IND+?
The DS1245AB-70IND+ guarantees a minimum 10-year data retention period in the absence of external power, measured cumulatively from the time VCC is first applied. This is achieved via a factory-sealed lithium cell disconnected until initial power-up, ensuring full energy capacity and verified through component selection, process control, and design validation-not production testing.
Does DS1245AB-70IND+ require external support circuitry for microprocessor interfacing?
No, DS1245AB-70IND+ requires no external support circuitry for microprocessor interfacing. It features fully static operation, TTL-compatible inputs/outputs, and built-in voltage monitoring with automatic write protection and battery switchover-enabling direct connection to standard 8-bit or 16-bit bus architectures without refresh controllers, supervisors, or backup capacitors.
What is the function of the NC pins on DS1245AB-70IND+?
The NC (No Connect) pins on DS1245AB-70IND+-pins 1, 2, 3, 17, 33, and 34-are electrically isolated with no internal connection. They must remain unconnected in the PCB layout. These pins exist for mechanical compatibility and package standardization but carry no signal or power function in the DS1245AB-70IND+ device.
How does DS1245AB-70IND+ handle power-down and power-up transitions?
During power-down, DS1245AB-70IND+ detects VCC decay below 4.5 V and activates write protection within 1.5 µs; below ~3.0 V, it switches to lithium power. During power-up, it reconnects VCC and disconnects the battery once VCC exceeds ~3.0 V, resuming normal operation after VCC stabilizes above 4.75 V-ensuring glitch-free transition without data corruption.
Is DS1245AB-70IND+ RoHS-compliant and UL-recognized?
Yes, DS1245AB-70IND+ is RoHS-compliant (indicated by the '+' suffix) and UL-recognized under file E99151. Its construction meets lead-free soldering requirements, and its nonvolatile module architecture has been evaluated by Underwriters Laboratories for safety compliance in industrial end equipment.
