The NOVRAM design allows data to be easily trans-
ferred from RAM to EEPROM (store) and EEPROM to
RAM (recall). The store operation is completed in 5ms
or less and the recall operation is completed in 10µs or
less. An automatic array recall operation reloads the
contents of the EEPROM into RAM upon power-up.
Xicor NOVRAMS are designed for unlimited write
operations to RAM, either from the host or recalls from
EEPROM, and a minimum 1,000,000 store operations
to the EEPROM. Data retention is specified to be
greater than 100 years.

The Xicor X20C16 is a 2K x 8 NOVRAM featuring a
high-speed static RAM overlaid bit-for-bit with a non-
volatile electrically erasable PROM (EEPROM) and
the AUTOSTORE feature which automatically saves
the RAM contents to EEPROM at power-down. The
X20C16 is fabricated with advanced CMOS floating
gate technology to achieve high speed with low power
and wide power-supply margin. The X20C16 features
a compatible JEDEC approved pinout for byte-wide
memories, for industry standard RAMs, ROMs,
EPROMs, and EEPROMs.
