Overview
The Cypress CY14MC256J/CY14MB256J/CY14ME256J
combines a 256-Kbit nvSRAM[2] with a nonvolatile element in
each memory cell. The memory is organized as 32 K words of
8 bits each. The embedded nonvolatile elements incorporate the
QuantumTrap technology, creating the world’s most reliable
nonvolatile memory. The SRAM provides infinite read and write
cycles, while the QuantumTrap cells provide highly reliable
nonvolatile storage of data. Data transfers from SRAM to the
nonvolatile elements (STORE operation) takes place
automatically at power-down (except for CY14MX256J1). On
power-up, data is restored to the SRAM from the nonvolatile
memory (RECALL operation). The STORE and RECALL
operations can also be initiated by the user through I2C
commands.

Notes
1. The I2C nvSRAM is a single solution which is usable for all four speed modes of operation. As a result, some I/O parameters are slightly different than those on chips
which support only one mode of operation. Refer to AN87209 for more details.
2. Serial (I2C) nvSRAM is referred to as nvSRAM throughout the datasheet.
