Product details
Overview
DS2045AB-70# from Maxim Integrated is a 1Mb (128k × 8) reflowable nonvolatile SRAM integrating static RAM, NV controller, and rechargeable manganese lithium (ML) battery in a single 256-ball 27mm² BGA module. It provides unconditional write protection at VCC < 4.75V, automatic battery switchover during power failure, and open-drain RST output for microprocessor supervision - deployed in RAID systems, industrial controllers, and fire alarm backup memory.
For engineers reviewing the DS2045AB-70# datasheet, DS2045AB-70# pinout, DS2045AB-70# application, or DS2045AB-70# equivalent, key selection considerations include 70ns access time, 5% VCC tolerance trip point, industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), battery-backed data retention up to 3 years per charge, and compatibility with standard BGA reflow assembly.
Technical Context
The DS2045AB-70# implements autonomous power-fail detection using an internal voltage reference (VTP = 4.50V min) and redundant logic to unconditionally disable writes and isolate SRAM when VCC drops below tolerance. Its NV controller manages seamless transition between VCC and ML battery supply without external circuitry, maintaining data integrity during brownouts.
It features a dedicated open-drain RST output with 10mA sink capability, timed reset assertion (tRPD ≤ 3.0µs) and deassertion (tRPU = 225–525ms), synchronized to VCC recovery and tREC (125ms) to ensure SRAM readiness before CPU access.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 1Mb (128k × 8 bits) - supports full byte-wide data bus interfacing with 17 address lines (A0–A16). |
| Access Time | 70ns - enables direct replacement of standard 70ns SRAM in legacy 8051/8086-based systems without timing redesign. |
| VCC Tolerance | ±5% (4.75V–5.25V) - triggers write protection at 4.50V min, ensuring data integrity during gradual rail collapse. |
| Data Retention | Up to 3 years per full charge - achieved via internal ML battery with no external capacitor or supercap required. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C - validated across full industrial range with guaranteed tDR, tRC, and VTP stability. |
| RST Output | Open-drain, 10mA sink - requires external pullup (1kΩ–10kΩ); used as CPU supervisor with programmable timeout coordination. |
| Package | 256-ball PBGA, 27mm² footprint - RoHS-compliant, reflow-solderable, UL Recognized (E99151). |
Pinout & Package
DS2045AB-70# uses a 256-ball plastic ball grid array (PBGA) package measuring 27mm², designed for standard convection reflow assembly (peak 225°C). All balls are arranged in a 20×20 array with corner balls omitted; ground and no-connect balls provide mechanical stability and EMI shielding.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1–A4, V1–V4, W1–W4, Y1–Y4, A17–A20, W17–W20, Y17–Y20 | GND | Multiple distributed ground connections reduce noise coupling and improve power integrity during high-speed read/write cycles. |
| B1–B4, C17–C20, A5–A16, U5–U16, V5–V16, W5–W16, Y5–Y16 | N.C. | No-connect balls - reserved for mechanical reinforcement and thermal dissipation; must remain unconnected on PCB. |
| C1–C4, D1–D4, D17–D20, E17–E20, F17–F20, G17–G20, H17–H20, J17–J20, K17–K20, L17–L20, M17–M20, N17–N20, P17–P20, R17–R20, T17–T20, U17–U20, V17–V20 | A0–A16 | 17-bit address bus - supports full 128k-word addressing; all inputs TTL-compatible with VIH ≥ 2.2V, VIL ≤ 0.8V. |
| E1–E4 | RST | Open-drain reset output - asserts low during VCC undervoltage; requires external pullup for logic-high level and CPU reset coordination. |
| F1–F4 | VCC | Main 5V supply input - powers SRAM, NV controller, and charges ML battery; monitored continuously for trip-point detection. |
| G1–G4 | WE | Write enable input - active-low; controls write strobe timing; tWP = 55–75ns ensures reliable data capture with CE synchronization. |
| H1–H4 | OE | Output enable input - active-low; enables DQ0–DQ7 drivers during read; high during write to prevent bus contention. |
| J1–J4 | CE | Chip enable input - active-low; gates all internal operations; tPD = 1.5µs ensures rapid write-protection activation on power loss. |
| K1–K4 to U1–U4 | DQ0–DQ7 | 8-bit bidirectional data bus - CMOS-compatible I/O with IOL = 2.0mA, IOH = –1.0mA; high-impedance when CE or OE inactive. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

| Internal ML battery + charger | UL-recognized charging circuit with short-circuit protection and temperature-stabilized reference - achieves full charge in ≤96 hours at VCC > VTP. |
| Unconditional write protection | Hardware-enforced lockout at VCC < 4.50V - no software dependency or external watchdog required to prevent corruption during brownout. |
| Automatic battery switchover | Seamless transition at VSW ≈ 2.7V - maintains SRAM power without glitch or hold-time violation, preserving state across power interruptions. |
| Reset output for CPU supervision | RST timing coordinated with tREC (125ms) and tRPU (225–525ms) - guarantees SRAM readiness before processor resumes execution. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar nonvolatile SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DS1245Y-120+ | Legacy 28-pin DIP; no integrated battery - requires external lithium battery and discrete charger/controller; 120ns access. | Suitable only for through-hole designs with space for external support components; not reflow-compatible. | Select DS1245Y-120+ only for legacy board refresh where DIP footprint and manual battery integration are acceptable. |
| FM24CL16B | 128Kb F-RAM; I²C interface; 3.3V operation; no battery or power-fail circuitry - intrinsic nonvolatility via ferroelectric core. | Requires serial interface redesign; lower density (128Kb vs 1Mb); unsuitable for parallel-bus systems or high-throughput logging. | Choose FM24CL16B for ultra-low-power, high-endurance (10¹⁴ cycles) logging where parallel bus and 1Mb capacity are not required. |
Compared with DS1245Y-120+, DS2045AB-70# delivers 14× higher density, eliminates external battery management, and supports modern SMT assembly - while FM24CL16B trades parallel interface and capacity for infinite write endurance and simpler power architecture, but cannot replace DS2045AB-70# in byte-wide, high-speed, battery-backed applications.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed data retention time for DS2045AB-70# under normal operating conditions?
The DS2045AB-70# provides up to 3 years of data retention per full battery charge at +25°C, based on component selection, process control, and design validation. This assumes initial 96-hour charge at VCC > VTP and no more than two 230°C reflow exposures. Retention is specified under data sheet Note 8 and does not require external capacitors or circuitry.
Does DS2045AB-70# require external components for battery charging or reset functionality?
No, DS2045AB-70# integrates all necessary battery charging circuitry, including UL-recognized short-circuit protection and temperature-stabilized voltage reference. The RST output is open-drain and requires only an external pullup resistor (1kΩ–10kΩ); no additional supervisor ICs, capacitors, or diodes are needed for basic operation.
How does DS2045AB-70# differ from DS2045Y-70# in terms of power monitoring?
DS2045AB-70# uses a 5% VCC tolerance threshold (VTP = 4.50V min at VCC = 5.0V), triggering write protection earlier than DS2045Y-70#, which uses a 10% threshold (VTP = 4.25V min). This makes DS2045AB-70# more sensitive to marginal supply conditions - ideal for systems requiring tighter voltage margin control.
Can DS2045AB-70# be used as a drop-in replacement for standard 70ns SRAMs like AS6C8008 or IS61LV5128?
Yes, DS2045AB-70# is pin-compatible and functionally compatible with 70ns 128k × 8 parallel SRAMs in 256-ball BGA packages. Its CE/OE/WE timing and DC/AC specifications meet or exceed JEDEC standards for 5V SRAMs, enabling direct substitution where nonvolatility and battery backup are added requirements.
What is the maximum recommended soldering temperature profile for DS2045AB-70#?
DS2045AB-70# follows IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020: peak reflow temperature is 225°C +0/–5°C, held for 10–30 seconds within ±5°C of peak; ramp-up rate ≤3°C/sec; preheat 100–150°C for 60–120 sec; ramp-down ≤6°C/sec. The ML battery is qualified for this profile without capacity loss or safety risk.
