Product details
Overview
DS1245Y-85+ from Maxim Integrated is a 1024k (131,072 × 8) nonvolatile static RAM with integrated lithium backup, JEDEC-standard 32-pin DIP package, ±10% VCC operating range (4.5V–5.5V), 70 ns access time, and guaranteed 10-year data retention without external power. It serves as a drop-in replacement for volatile 128k × 8 SRAMs in industrial control memory buffers requiring persistent state during brownouts.
For engineers reviewing the DS1245Y-85+ datasheet, DS1245Y-85+ pinout, DS1245Y-85+ application, or DS1245Y-85+ equivalent, key selection criteria include write-protection voltage threshold (4.25V), industrial temperature support (–40°C to +85°C), battery-freshness seal activation at first power-up, and compatibility with standard bytewide 32-pin DIP sockets.
Technical Context
The DS1245Y-85+ integrates SRAM, lithium battery, and autonomous power-fail detection circuitry into a single monolithic module. Its control logic continuously monitors VCC; when voltage drops below 4.25V, it unconditionally enables write protection, disables all inputs, places outputs in high-Z, and switches to battery power at ~3.0V.
It operates in three distinct modes: normal read/write (VCC ≥ 4.5V), data retention (VCC < 3.0V, battery-powered), and transitional power-down/power-up (3.0V ≤ VCC < 4.25V). The device requires no external support circuitry and supports unlimited write cycles with full CMOS compatibility.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar nonvolatile SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DS1245AB-70IND+ | Narrower VCC tolerance (±5%, 4.75V–5.25V); higher write-protection threshold (4.50V) | Better suited for tightly regulated 5V systems; less tolerant of brownouts | Select DS1245AB-70IND+ only if system VCC remains within ±5% and early write-lock is acceptable |
| STK12C68-A70I | Same 1024k size and 70 ns speed, but uses external capacitor-based backup; no integrated lithium | Requires external 0.1F supercapacitor and charge circuit; shorter retention (~72 hours) | Choose STK12C68-A70I only when long-term retention is unnecessary and cost sensitivity outweighs reliability needs |
Compared with DS1245AB-70IND+, DS1245Y-85+ trades tighter supply regulation for wider brownout resilience; compared with STK12C68-A70I, it delivers true 10-year retention without external energy storage or charging circuitry.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed data retention period for DS1245Y-85+?
The DS1245Y-85+ 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 through an electrically disconnected lithium cell that activates only upon initial power-up, preserving full energy capacity for long-term backup.
Does DS1245Y-85+ require external components to operate as nonvolatile memory?
No, DS1245Y-85+ operates as a fully self-contained nonvolatile SRAM. It integrates the SRAM array, lithium battery, and power-fail detection/control circuitry into a single 32-pin DIP package. No external capacitors, regulators, or supervisory ICs are required for basic nonvolatile functionality.
What is the write-protection voltage threshold for DS1245Y-85+?
The DS1245Y-85+ asserts unconditional write protection when VCC falls below 4.25V (minimum), with typical activation at 4.37V. This threshold is lower than the DS1245AB variant (4.50V), making DS1245Y-85+ more tolerant of gradual brownouts while maintaining data integrity.
Can DS1245Y-85+ be used in place of standard 128k × 8 SRAMs?
Yes, DS1245Y-85+ is pin-compatible and functionally equivalent to standard 128k × 8 volatile SRAMs in 32-pin DIP sockets. Its 131,072 × 8 organization matches the same address/data bus interface, enabling direct replacement without PCB or firmware changes.
Is DS1245Y-85+ RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes, DS1245Y-85+ carries the "+" suffix, indicating it is lead(Pb)-free and RoHS-compliant. The package meets JEDEC standards for wave soldering and is rated for industrial temperature operation (–40°C to +85°C) without derating.
