Functional Description
The IM 1244Y 256K NV SRAM with Phantom
Clock is a fully static nonvolatile RAM organized as
32,768 words by 8 bits with a built-in real time clock.
This ‘NV SRAM’ has all the normal character-
istics of a CMOS static RAM with an important ben-
efit of data being retained in the absence of power.
Data retention current is so small that a miniature
lithium cell contained within the package provides an
energy source to preserve data. Protection against
data loss has also been incorporated to maintain data
integrity during power on/off conditions.
The Phantom Clock provides timekeeping in-
formation including hundredths of seconds, seconds,
minutes, hours, day, date, month and year informa-
tion. The date at the end of the month is automati-
cally adjusted for months with less than 31 days, in-
cluding correction for leap years. The Phantom Clock
operates in either 24-hour or 12-hour format with an
AM/PM indicator.

DATA RETENTION
The IM1244Y provides full functional
capability for Vcc greater than 4.75V and write protects
at 4.5V. Data is retained in the absence of Vcc without
any additional support circuitry. The SRAM constantly
monitors Vcc. The moment Vcc decays, the RAM au-
tomatically write protects itself. All inputs to the RAM
become “don’t care” and all outputs are in high imped-
ance-state. As Vcc falls below approximately 3.0V the
power switching circuit connects the lithium energy
source to RAM to retain data. During power-on, when
Vcc rises above approximately 3.0V the power switch-
ing circuit connects external Vcc to the RAM and dis-
connects the lithium energy source. Normal RAM op-
eration can resume after Vcc becomes greater than
4.5V.
READ MODE
The IM 1244Y performs a read cycle when-
ever WE high and CE low. The unique address speci-
fied by the 15 address inputs A0-A14 defines which of
the 32,768 bytes of data is to be accessed. Valid data
will be available to the eight data output drivers within
access time tACC after the last address input is stable,
provided that CE and OE access times are satisfied. If
OE or CE access times are not satisfied, data access
will be measured from the limiting parameter (tCO or
tOE), rather than address. The state of the eight data I/
O lines is controlled by the OE and CE control signals.
The data lines may be in an indeterminate state be-
tween tOH and tAA but the data lines will always have
valid data at tAA.
WRITE MODE
The IM1244Y is in the write mode whenever
CE and WE inputs are held low. The latter occurring
falling edge of either CE or WE determines the start of
a write cycle. A write is terminated by the earlier rising
edge of CE or WE. The address must be held valid
throughout the write cycle. WE must return to the high
state for a minimum recovery time (tWR) before another
Read or Write cycle can be initiated. CE or WE is high
during power on to perfect memory after Vcc reaches
Vcc (min) but before the processor stabilizes.

PHANTOM CLOCK REGISTER INFORMATION
The Phantom Clock information is contained
in 8 registers of 8 bits, each of which is sequentially
accessed one bit at a time after the 64-bit pattern rec-
ognition sequence has been completed. When updat-
ing the Phantom Clock registers, each register must
be handled in - groups of 8 bits. Writing and reading
individual bits within a register could produce errone-
ous results.
Data contained in the Phantom Clock register is in bi-
nary coded decimal format (BCD). Reading and writ-
ing the registers is always accomplished by stepping
through all 8 registers, starting with bit 0 of register 0
and ending with bit 7 of register 7.
PHANTOM CLOCK OPEARTION
Communication with the Phantom Clock is es-
tablished by pattern recognition on a serial bit stream
of 64 bits which must be matched by executing 64 con-
secutive write cycles containing the proper data on I/
O0. All access which occur prior to recognition of the
64-bit pattern are directed to memory.
After recognition is established, the next 64
read or write cycles either extract or update data in the
Phantom Clock, and memory access is inhibited.
Initially, a read cycle to any memory location
using the CE and OE control of the Phantom Clock
starts the pattern recognition sequence by moving a
pointer to the first bit of the 64-bit comparison register.
Next, 64 consecutive write cycles are executed using
the CE and WE control of the SmartWatch. These 64
write cycles are used only to gain access to the Phan-
tom Clock.
However, write cycle generated to gain access to the
Phantom Cycle are also writing data to a location in the
mated RAM. When the first write cycle is executed it is
compared to bit 0 of the 64-bit comparison register, If a
match is found, the pointer increments to the next loca-
tion of the comparison register and awaits the next write
cycle. If a match is not found the pointer does not ad-
vance and all subsequent write cycles are ignored. If a
read cycle occurs at any time during pattern recogni-
tion, the present sequence is aborted and the compari-
son register have been matched. With a correct match
for 64-bits the Phantom Clock is enabled and data trans-
fer to or from the timekeeping register can proceed.
The next 64-cycles will cause the Phantom Clock to
either receive or transmit data on I/O0, depending the
level of the OE pin or the WE.
AM/PM 12/24 MODE
Bit 7of the hours register is defined as the 12-or-
24 hour mode selectbit. When high, the 12-hour mode
is selected. In the 12-hour mode, bit 5 is the AM/PM
bit with logic high being PM. In the 24-hour mode, bit 5
is the second 10-hour bit(20-23 hours).

OSCILATTOR AND RESET BITS
Bits 4 and 5 of the day register are used to control the RESET and oscillator functions. Bit 4 controls
the RESET (pin 1). When the RESET bit is set to logic 1, the RESET input pin is ignored. When the RESET
bit is set to logic0, A low input on the RESET pin will cause the Phantom Clock to abort data transfer without
changing data in the watch registers. Bit 5 controls the oscillator. When set to logic 1, the oscillator is off.
When set to logic 0, the oscillator turns on and the watch becomes operational. These bits are shipped from
the factory set to a logic 1.
