The MK48Z02B-15 is a high-performance 2K x 8 non-volatile static RAM powered by STMicroelectronics, a global semiconductor leader. This ZEROPOWER® SRAM is designed to retain data without additional external batteries, making it an ideal solution for memory storage that requires data persistence without the need for a constant power supply.
Key Features
- Integrated Power-Fail Deselect Circuitry: This feature automatically switches to the battery supply during a power-fail event, ensuring data integrity.
- Low Power Consumption: The MK48Z02B-15 has been engineered for very low power consumption during normal operation and standby modes, significantly extending battery life.
- 15ns Access Time: Fast access time makes this SRAM suitable for high-speed microprocessor systems.
- Non-Volatile: Data is maintained without an external power supply, thanks to the self-contained lithium energy source.
- Unlimited Write Cycles: Unlike flash memory, this SRAM allows for an unlimited number of write cycles, enhancing its reliability and longevity.
- Automatic Write Protection: When VCC is below the power-fail deselect voltage, write operations are inhibited to prevent data corruption.
Applications
The versatility of the MK48Z02B-15 allows it to be used in a wide array of applications. It is particularly well-suited for portable devices and applications that require data retention after power-off, such as:
- Real-Time Clocks
- Instrumentation and Measurement Systems
- Industrial and Medical Electronics
- Automotive Electronics
- Networking and Telecommunications
