Product details
Overview
STK14C88-NF45TR from Cypress Semiconductor is a 256 Kb (32K × 8) nonvolatile static RAM with integrated Quantum Trap storage, delivering 45 ns read/write cycle time, automatic STORE on power loss, and automatic RECALL on power-up. It operates from a single 5V ±10% supply, supports commercial temperature range (0°C to 70°C), and uses a 32-pin 300-mil SOIC package. It is deployed in industrial control systems requiring persistent memory without battery backup.
For engineers reviewing the STK14C88-NF45TR datasheet, STK14C88-NF45TR pinout, STK14C88-NF45TR application, or STK14C88-NF45TR equivalent, key selection criteria include AutoStore timing (10 ms STORE duration), HSB-controlled hardware STORE initiation, VCAP capacitor interface for energy hold-up, and compatibility with standard SRAM bus protocols in legacy embedded systems.
Technical Context
The STK14C88-NF45TR integrates volatile SRAM and nonvolatile Quantum Trap cells monolithically-each memory cell includes both storage elements. STORE transfers data from SRAM to nonvolatile cells upon power failure detection or external HSB assertion; RECALL restores data unconditionally at power-on reset.
It supports dual-mode nonvolatile operation: hardware-triggered STORE via active-low HSB pulse (≥15 ns width), and software-controlled STORE/RECALL via address/command sequences. The device maintains full SRAM timing compliance (tRC = 45 ns) during volatile access while isolating nonvolatile cycles via dedicated control logic and internal power management.
Key Specifications

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A0–A14 | Address Input | 15-bit address bus supporting full 32K-word addressing; A14 is MSB |
| DQ0–DQ7 | Bidirectional Data I/O | 8-bit parallel data path; tristates when G high or E inactive |
| E | Chip Enable (active low) | Primary chip select; must be low for read/write access; controls standby entry |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar nonvolatile SRAM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STK14CA8-NF45TR | Same pinout and function but rated for industrial temp (–40°C to 85°C); higher ICC1 standby current (31 mA vs. 30 mA) | Suitable for extended-temperature environments where STK14C88-NF45TR's 0°C–70°C range is insufficient | Select when operating ambient exceeds 70°C or requires wider qualification margin |
| FM1808-45-TG | 45 ns access, 256 Kb nvSRAM from Cypress successor (Cypress → Infineon); identical STORE/RECALL behavior but updated VCAP drive capability | Drop-in replacement with enhanced reliability and longer production support; same PCB layout | Preferred for new designs due to active lifecycle status and improved manufacturing yield |

FAQ
What is the required VCAP capacitor value and type for reliable AutoStore operation?
A 4.7 µF solid tantalum capacitor rated for ≥6.3 V must be connected between VCAP and VSS, placed within 10 mm of the STK14C88-NF45TR. This provides sufficient energy to complete the 10 ms STORE cycle during VCC dropout. Ceramic capacitors are not recommended due to insufficient capacitance retention under bias.
Can STK14C88-NF45TR operate in software STORE mode only, without using the HSB pin?
Yes. Software STORE is initiated by writing specific address patterns (0x0000–0x0003) while holding HSB high. This mode eliminates external HSB control circuitry and allows STORE triggering from firmware-ideal for systems where pin count or board space is constrained.
Does RECALL occur automatically even if the previous STORE was incomplete or interrupted?
Yes. RECALL always executes fully on power-up regardless of prior STORE status. The device restores the last successfully stored image from Quantum Trap cells. If no valid STORE completed, RECALL loads default values (all 0xFF or user-defined pattern depending on design).
Is STK14C88-NF45TR compatible with 3.3V-only systems?
No. STK14C88-NF45TR requires a 5.0 V ±10% supply and TTL/CMOS-compatible input thresholds (VIH = 2.2 V min). Interfacing with 3.3V controllers requires level translation on all address, data, and control lines-no internal voltage regulation or mixed-voltage I/O is supported.
