Product details
Overview
DS3065WP-100IND+ from Maxim Integrated is a 3.3V, 8Mb (1024k × 8) nonvolatile SRAM with integrated real-time clock (RTC), designed for data retention and timekeeping in power-loss scenarios. It combines static RAM, NV controller, and RTC on a single 34-pin PowerCap module, backed by a DS9034I-PCX+ lithium battery cap. Used in RAID systems, industrial PLCs, and network routers where persistent memory and accurate time stamping are critical.
For engineers reviewing the DS3065WP-100IND+ datasheet, DS3065WP-100IND+ pinout, DS3065WP-100IND+ application, or DS3065WP-100IND+ equivalent, key selection criteria include its 100ns access time, unconditional VCC-fail write protection, battery-backed RTC alarm functionality, extended industrial temperature range (−40°C to +85°C), and direct 3.3V microprocessor interface compatibility.
Technical Context
The DS3065WP-100IND+ integrates three functional blocks: a 1024k × 8 SRAM array, a real-time clock with century/year/month/date/hour/minute/second BCD registers and alarm capability, and a battery-switching controller that automatically engages the DS9034I-PCX+ lithium cell when VCC drops below 2.8V. Its dual-mode addressing-20-bit A0–A19 for SRAM, 4-bit A0–A3 for RTC-enables independent access via CE/CS/WE/OE control signals.
It implements double-buffered RTC registers with read/write halt bits (R/W), oscillator start/stop (OSC), battery-low flag (BLF), and alarm mask bits (AM4–AM1) supporting second-to-monthly alarm intervals. Power-down timing includes tPD = 1.5μs VCC-fail detection and tREC = 125ms recovery before normal operation resumes after VCC restoration.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar nonvolatile SRAM with RTC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DS12887A-150+ (Maxim) | 5V-only supply; 200ns access time; older 28-pin DIP package; no battery cap integration | Limited to legacy 5V designs; lacks DS3065WP-100IND+'s 3.3V compatibility, 100ns speed, and PowerCap modularity | Select only for backward-compatible 5V board refreshes where footprint and voltage constraints prohibit redesign. |
| STK15C88-3LF35 (STMicro) | 3.3V operation; 35ns access time; no integrated RTC; requires external crystal and battery management | Higher performance SRAM-only solution; adds design complexity for timekeeping via separate RTC IC and power-path logic | Choose when ultra-fast SRAM access dominates over integrated timekeeping, and system-level RTC flexibility is preferred. |
Compared with DS12887A-150+, DS3065WP-100IND+ delivers 3.3V compatibility, 2× faster access, and modular battery integration; versus STK15C88-3LF35, it trades raw speed for significant BOM reduction and guaranteed RTC/SRAM coherency in power-fail events.

FAQ
What is the role of the DS9034I-PCX+ battery cap with the DS3065WP-100IND+?
The DS9034I-PCX+ is a lithium battery cap physically attached post-assembly to the DS3065WP-100IND+ PowerCap module. It supplies backup power to maintain SRAM data and RTC operation when VCC fails. The DS3065WP-100IND+'s internal circuitry automatically switches to this battery at ~2.5V (VSW) and enforces write protection below 2.8V (VTP). Battery capacity ensures ≥10 years of data retention per Maxim's specification.
How does the DS3065WP-100IND+ handle simultaneous access to SRAM and RTC registers?
The DS3065WP-100IND+ prevents bus contention through strict control signal separation: SRAM access requires CE low and CS high; RTC access requires CS low and CE high. Table 1 in the datasheet defines valid mode combinations. Violating tCCS (chip-to-chip setup time = 40ns) by overlapping CE and CS activation causes undefined behavior - the DS3065WP-100IND+ does not arbitrate concurrent access.
Can the RTC oscillator in the DS3065WP-100IND+ be disabled to conserve battery life?
Yes. The DS3065WP-100IND+ RTC oscillator is controlled by the OSC bit (B7 of the SECONDS register, address F9h). Setting OSC = 1 stops oscillation and reduces backup current; setting OSC = 0 restarts it. This feature allows battery life extension during long-term storage or non-time-critical operation, and the DS3065WP-100IND+ retains all register values and time state during oscillator disable.
What happens to the DS3065WP-100IND+ during power-up after a complete VCC loss?
Upon VCC restoration above VTP (2.8–3.0V), the DS3065WP-100IND+ requires tREC = 125ms before enabling normal SRAM/RTC access. During this period, all inputs are ignored and outputs remain high-impedance. Register bits AE, ABE, WDS, and BMB reset to 0; other RTC bits are undefined. The DS3065WP-100IND+ does not auto-initialize time - user firmware must set the clock after power-up.
Is the DS3065WP-100IND+ pin-compatible with earlier Maxim NV SRAMs like the DS1265W?
No. The DS3065WP-100IND+ uses a 34-pin PowerCap package with dedicated RTC control (CS), crystal (X1/X2), and battery (BAT) pins absent in the DS1265W's 28-pin DIP. While functionally similar as NV SRAMs, the DS3065WP-100IND+ adds integrated RTC, different pinout, and battery-cap dependency - it is not a drop-in replacement and requires PCB layout revision.
