Data Retention Mode
The CY7C027V/028V and CY7037V/038V are designed with
battery backup in mind. Data retention voltage and supply cur-
rent are guaranteed over temperature. The following rules en-
sure data retention:
1. Chip enable (CE) must be held HIGH during data retention, with-
in VCC to VCC – 0.2V.
2. CE must be kept between VCC – 0.2V and 70% of VCC
during the power-up and power-down transitions.
3. The RAM can begin operation >tRC after VCC reaches the min-
imum operating voltage (3.0 volts).
