Cypress s nvSRAMs are RoHS-compliant and directly replace SRAM, battery-backed SRAM (
BBSRAM) and EEPROM devices, offering fast nonvolatile data storage.
Design engineers have a number of memory technologies from which to choose: Flash, battery-backed static random access memory (
BBSRAM) and electronically erased programmable read-only memory (EEPROM).
FRAM provides nonvolatile data retention comparable to that of other nonvolatile memory technologies, while eliminating the reliability concerns, functional disadvantages and system design complexities of battery-backed SRAM (
BBSRAM).
