Product details
Overview
DS1245W-100IND from Maxim Integrated is a 1,048,576-bit (128k × 8) nonvolatile SRAM with integrated lithium backup, 100 ns read/write access time, 3.3 V supply, and industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). It replaces volatile SRAM, EEPROM, or Flash in battery-backed memory applications requiring data retention during power loss.
For engineers reviewing the DS1245W-100IND datasheet, DS1245W-100IND pinout, DS1245W-100IND application, or DS1245W-100IND equivalent, key selection factors include guaranteed 10-year data retention without external power, automatic write protection at VCC < 2.8 V, JEDEC-standard 32-pin DIP package, and compatibility with standard microprocessor bus interfaces.
Technical Context
The DS1245W-100IND integrates static RAM, lithium energy source, and voltage-monitoring control circuitry into a single monolithic package. Its power-fail detection triggers automatic switch to battery backup when VCC drops below ~2.8 V, enabling unconditional write protection and high-impedance outputs.
It operates as a byte-wide parallel memory with full static timing: CE/WE/OE-controlled read/write cycles, no refresh required, and seamless transition between VCC-powered and battery-backed modes. The device uses a self-contained lithium cell electrically disconnected until first power-up to preserve shelf life.

Pinout & Package
DS1245W-100IND is supplied in a 32-pin JEDEC-standard 740-mil extended dual in-line package (EDIP), wave- or hand-solderable only (not reflow-compatible). The package integrates SRAM, lithium battery, and control circuitry in one hermetically sealed unit.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A16 | Address Inputs | 17-bit address bus for accessing all 131,072 bytes; fully static, no timing constraints on hold time |
| DQ0–DQ7 | Data I/O | Bi-directional 8-bit data bus; high-impedance when CE or OE inactive |
| CE | Chip Enable | Active-low chip select; initiates read/write when low with WE/OE conditions satisfied |
| WE | Write Enable | Active-low write strobe; controls write cycle start/termination with CE |
| OE | Output Enable | Active-low output enable; disables outputs during writes to prevent bus contention |
| VCC | Power Supply | +3.3 V main supply; powers SRAM and enables lithium disconnect circuitry on first power-up |
| GND | Ground | Reference return path for all signals and power |
| NC | No Connect | Two pins (pins 1 and 32) are unconnected; must remain floating per datasheet |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Automatic Power-Fail Protection | Monitors VCC continuously; switches to lithium backup and enables write protection within 1.5 µs of out-of-tolerance condition |
| Freshness Seal | Lithium source remains electrically disconnected until first VCC application >3.0 V, preserving full 10-year retention capacity |
| Zero External Support Circuitry | Requires no external capacitors, regulators, or supervision ICs - direct connection to 3.3 V bus suffices |
| Standardized Pinout | JEDEC 32-pin DIP layout matches legacy 128k × 8 SRAMs - enables socket-level replacement without PCB redesign |
| Industrial Temperature Qualification | Guaranteed operation across –40°C to +85°C with full AC/DC specs - validated for harsh embedded environments |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar nonvolatile SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DS1248W-100IND | Same architecture but 256k × 8 (2 Mbit); identical 100 ns speed, 3.3 V, and –40°C to +85°C rating | Higher density for applications needing >128 kB of battery-backed RAM | Select when memory footprint exceeds 128k × 8; pinout differs (32-pin DIP remains, but A17 added) |
| STK12C68-100I | 128k × 8 NV SRAM; 100 ns access; 3.3 V; –40°C to +85°C; but uses external capacitor-based backup instead of integrated lithium | Lower cost alternative where 10-year retention is not mandatory and board space allows discrete backup components | Choose if long-term data retention is secondary to BOM cost and design flexibility is needed for backup topology |
Compared with DS1245W-100IND, DS1248W-100IND offers double density with minimal interface change, while STK12C68-100I trades integrated lithium reliability for lower component count flexibility-neither is pin-compatible, but both serve overlapping industrial memory roles.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed data retention period for DS1245W-100IND without external power?
The DS1245W-100IND guarantees a minimum of 10 years of data retention in the absence of external power, based on its integrated lithium energy source and controlled discharge profile. This retention time begins after first application of VCC >3.0 V, which activates the battery. The DS1245W-100IND's freshness seal ensures full capacity is preserved until initial power-up.
Does DS1245W-100IND require external circuitry for battery backup operation?
No, the DS1245W-100IND requires no external circuitry for battery backup operation. It integrates a lithium energy source, voltage monitoring, and automatic power switchover logic into a single 32-pin DIP package. The DS1245W-100IND functions as a drop-in replacement for standard 128k × 8 SRAMs with zero additional components.
Is DS1245W-100IND pin-compatible with standard 32-pin 128k × 8 SRAMs?
Yes, the DS1245W-100IND uses a JEDEC-standard 32-pin 740-mil extended DIP package with pinout identical to conventional 128k × 8 volatile SRAMs. Address (A0–A16), data (DQ0–DQ7), and control (CE, WE, OE, VCC, GND) signals map directly, enabling socket-level replacement without PCB modification.
What happens to DS1245W-100IND when VCC falls below the write-protection threshold?
When VCC drops below ~2.8 V, the DS1245W-100IND immediately disables write capability, places all inputs in "don't care" state, and forces outputs to high impedance. Within 1.5 µs, it connects the internal lithium source to retain RAM contents. The DS1245W-100IND maintains data integrity autonomously until VCC is restored above 3.0 V.
Can DS1245W-100IND operate in a 3.0 V system?
Yes, the DS1245W-100IND is specified for 3.0 V to 3.6 V operation and functions fully across this range. Its write-protection threshold is 2.8–3.0 V, ensuring reliable data safeguarding even at the lower end of the supply range. The DS1245W-100IND delivers 100 ns access time and full AC/DC specifications at 3.0 V, supporting robust low-voltage industrial designs.
