DESCRIPTION
The Simtek STK11C88 is a fast static
RAM
with a
nonvolatile element incorporated in each static
memory cell. The
SRAM
can be read and written an
unlimited number of times, while independent non-
volatile data resides in Nonvolatile Elements. Data
transfers from the
SRAM
to the Nonvolatile Elements
(the
STORE
operation), or from Nonvolatile Elements
to
SRAM
(the
RECALL
operation), are initiated using
a software sequence. Data transfers from the Non-
volatile Elements to the
SRAM
(the
RECALL
opera-
tion) also occur upon restoration of power.
The STK11C88 is pin-compatible with industry-
standard
SRAM
s.

stress rating only, and functional operation of the device at condi-
tions above those indicated in the operational sections of this
specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rat-
ing conditions for extended periods may affect reliability.
