Product details
Overview
DS1245WP-150+ from Maxim Integrated is a 3.3V, 1024k-bit (131,072 × 8) nonvolatile static RAM with integrated lithium backup, JEDEC-standard 34-pin PowerCap Module (PCM) package, 100ns read/write access time, and industrial-grade -40°C to +85°C operation. It replaces volatile SRAM, EEPROM, or Flash in battery-backed memory applications requiring data retention during power loss.
For engineers reviewing the DS1245WP-150+ datasheet, DS1245WP-150+ pinout, DS1245WP-150+ application, or DS1245WP-150+ equivalent, key selection criteria include nonvolatile write protection threshold (2.8V), unlimited write cycles, automatic VCC-fail detection (<1.5µs response), surface-mount compatibility without reflow exposure to lithium, and standardized PCM pinout for drop-in replacement across Maxim's NV SRAM family.
Technical Context
The DS1245WP-150+ integrates SRAM, lithium battery, and autonomous power-fail control circuitry into a modular base that mates with DS9034PC+ or DS9034PCI+ snap-on PowerCap. Its internal voltage monitor triggers write protection when VCC falls below 2.8V and switches to battery power within 1.5µs, ensuring zero-cycle data corruption.
It operates as a byte-wide parallel memory with full static timing: CE/WE/OE-controlled read/write cycles, 100ns tACC/tWC, and high-impedance outputs during deselect or write. The PCM architecture isolates the lithium cell from reflow soldering by separating module base (surface-mountable) and PowerCap (mechanically attached post-reflow).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Density | 1,048,576 bits (131,072 × 8), enabling direct replacement of 128k×8 volatile SRAM without address decoding changes. |
| Access Time | 100ns tACC and tWC - supports high-speed microprocessor bus interfacing at up to 10 MHz sustained throughput. |
| Write Protection Threshold | 2.8V to 3.0V VTP - guarantees deterministic, glitch-free switch to battery backup before VCC drops below functional SRAM supply minimum (3.0V). |
| Data Retention | 10 years minimum in battery-backup mode - verified under continuous absence of VCC after first power-up, with lithium source electrically disconnected until initial VCC application. |
| Operating Voltage | 3.0V to 3.6V VCC - compatible with standard 3.3V logic systems and tolerant of ±0.3V supply variation. |
| Temperature Range | -40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial environments including factory automation, instrumentation, and telecom infrastructure. |
| Package Type | 34-pin PowerCap Module (PCM) - surface-mountable base with keyed mechanical interface for DS9034PC+ PowerCap; avoids thermal damage to lithium during reflow. |
Pinout & Package
The DS1245WP-150+ uses a 34-pin PowerCap Module (PCM) package: a surface-mountable module base with contacts for mating to DS9034PC+ or DS9034PCI+, enabling lithium isolation during PCB assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A16 | Address Inputs | 17-bit address bus supporting full 131,072-word addressing; TTL-compatible inputs with 0.4V/2.2V logic thresholds. |
| DQ0–DQ7 | Data I/O | Bi-directional 8-bit data bus; outputs enter high-impedance state when CE or OE is inactive, preventing bus contention. |
| CE | Chip Enable | Active-low chip select; initiates read/write when low and synchronizes with WE/OE to define cycle type and timing boundaries. |
| WE | Write Enable | Active-low write control; falling edge (with CE low) starts write cycle; rising edge terminates it; disables outputs within 35ns (tODW). |
| OE | Output Enable | Active-low output control; enables data drivers only during reads; must be high during writes to avoid contention. |
| VCC | Power Supply | +3.3V primary supply; powers SRAM and control logic; monitored continuously for fail detection and automatic battery switchover. |
| GND | Ground | Reference return path for all signals and power; required for stable operation and accurate voltage threshold detection. |
| VBAT | Lithium Backup Terminal | Connects to DS9034PC+ PowerCap; isolated from VCC until first power-up, preserving full battery capacity for 10-year retention. |
| NC | No Connect | Unbonded pins (pins 1, 2, 33, 34); no internal connection; must remain unconnected on PCB. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Automatic Power-Fail Response | Detects VCC decay below 2.8V and switches to lithium backup within 1.5µs, disabling writes and placing all I/O in safe high-Z state. |
| Freshness Seal | Lithium energy source remains electrically disconnected until first VCC application >3.0V, guaranteeing full 10-year retention capacity from shipment. |
| Surface-Mountable PCM Architecture | Module base withstands 260°C reflow; DS9034PC+ PowerCap snaps on post-assembly, eliminating thermal stress on lithium cell. |
| Standardized Pinout | 34-pin PCM layout matches Maxim's nonvolatile SRAM family, enabling hardware reuse across densities and speed grades without layout change. |
| Unlimited Write Cycles | No endurance limit on SRAM writes - eliminates wear-leveling firmware overhead and supports real-time logging applications. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar nonvolatile SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DS1245W-150IND+ | 32-pin JEDEC DIP package; integrated lithium; same 1024k density, 100ns speed, and -40°C to +85°C rating. | Through-hole mounting; no separate PowerCap required; not surface-mountable; unsuitable for automated SMT lines. | Select for legacy board upgrades or hand-soldered prototypes where DIP footprint is retained. |
| STK12C68-E25I | 128k × 8 (1Mbit) nvSRAM; 25ns access; 5V operation; SOIC-32 package; no PCM option. | Higher speed but lower density; incompatible voltage domain; lacks industrial PCM modularity and freshness seal. | Select only if 5V system compatibility and <25ns timing are mandatory; requires redesign for voltage translation and layout. |
Compared with DS1245W-150IND+ and STK12C68-E25I, the DS1245WP-150+ uniquely combines industrial temperature range, surface-mount readiness, modular lithium integration, and guaranteed 10-year retention - making it the sole choice for new SMT-based industrial designs requiring zero-layout-change scalability across Maxim's nvSRAM portfolio.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed data retention period for DS1245WP-150+ in battery-backup mode?
The DS1245WP-150+ guarantees a minimum of 10 years of data retention in the absence of external power, measured from the time VCC is first applied - thanks to its freshness-sealed lithium energy source that remains electrically disconnected until initial power-up. This specification is validated under worst-case industrial temperature conditions (-40°C to +85°C) and accounts for cumulative backup time only.
Does DS1245WP-150+ require external support circuitry for microprocessor interfacing?
No, the DS1245WP-150+ requires no external support circuitry for microprocessor interfacing. Its fully static design, TTL-compatible control signals (CE, WE, OE), and built-in power-fail monitoring eliminate the need for external supervisors, backup controllers, or write-protection logic. The DS1245WP-150+ handles all nonvolatile functions autonomously, including lithium switching and write disable.
How does the PowerCap Module (PCM) architecture of DS1245WP-150+ protect the lithium battery during PCB assembly?
The DS1245WP-150+ separates the SRAM/control module base (reflow-solderable at 260°C) from the lithium-containing DS9034PC+ PowerCap, which is snapped on mechanically after reflow. This ensures the lithium cell never experiences thermal stress, preserving its capacity and safety certification. The keyed PCM interface prevents misalignment and guarantees reliable electrical contact without soldering.
What is the write protection voltage threshold for DS1245WP-150+, and how quickly does it activate?
The DS1245WP-150+ activates write protection when VCC falls below 2.8V (typical 2.9V), with guaranteed response within 1.5µs (tPD). During this transition, all inputs become "don't care," outputs go high-impedance, and the lithium source is connected to retain data - preventing any partial or corrupted writes during brownout conditions.
Is DS1245WP-150+ pin-compatible with other Maxim nonvolatile SRAMs in the PCM package family?
Yes, the DS1245WP-150+ uses Maxim's standardized 34-pin PCM pinout, ensuring mechanical and electrical compatibility across the DS12xxW PCM family (e.g., DS1225, DS1230). This allows direct substitution of different densities or speed grades on the same PCB footprint, provided the host system supports the required address/data bus width and timing.
