Description
The FM31xx is a family of integrated devices that
includes the most commonly needed functions for
processor-based systems. Major features include
nonvolatile memory available in various sizes, real-
time clock, low-VDD reset, watchdog timer,
nonvolatile event counter, lockable 64-bit serial
number area, and general purpose comparator that
can be used for an early power-fail (NMI) interrupt or
other purpose. The family operates from 2.7 to 5.5V.
Each FM31xx provides nonvolatile RAM available in
sizes including 4Kb, 16Kb, 64Kb, and 256Kb
versions. Fast write speed and unlimited endurance
allow the memory to serve as extra RAM or
conventional nonvolatile storage. This memory is
truly nonvolatile rather than battery backed.
The real-time clock (RTC) provides time and date
information in BCD format. It can be permanently
powered from external backup voltage source, either
a battery or a capacitor. The timekeeper uses a
common external 32.768 kHz crystal and provides a
calibration mode that allows software adjustment of
timekeeping accuracy.
This product conforms to specifications per the terms of the Ramtron
standard warranty. The product has completed Ramtron’s internal
qualification testing and has reached production status.

The processor companion includes commonly needed
CPU support functions. Supervisory functions
include a reset output signal controlled by either a
low VDD condition or a watchdog timeout. /RST
goes active when VDD drops below a programmable
threshold and remains active for 100 ms after VDD
rises above the trip point. A programmable watchdog
timer runs from 100 ms to 3 seconds. The watchdog
timer is optional, but if enabled it will assert the reset
signal for 100 ms if not restarted by the host before
the timeout. A flag-bit indicates the source of the
reset.
A general-purpose comparator compares an external
input pin to the onboard 1.2V reference. This is
useful for generating a power-fail interrupt (NMI) but
can be used for any purpose. The family also includes
a programmable 64-bit serial number that can be
locked making it unalterable. Additionally it offers a
dual battery-backed event counter that tracks the
number of rising or falling edges detected on
dedicated input pins.
