The DS1213D SmartSocket is a 32-pin, 600 mil DIP socket with a built-in CMOS controller circuit and an embedded lithium energy source. DS1213D accepts 32K x 8 or 128K x 8 JEDEC bytewide CMOS static RAM. When the socket is mated with a CMOS RAM, it provides a complete solution to problems associated with memory volatility. The DS1213D monitors incoming VCC for an out-of-tolerance condition. When such a condition occurs, an internal lithium energy source is automatically switched on and write protection is unconditionally enabled to prevent data corruption. Using the SmartSocket saves printed circuit board space since the SRAM/SmartSocket combination occupies no more area than the SRAM alone. The DS1213D uses only Pins 22, 30 and 32 for RAM control. All other pins are passed straight through.
See the DS1213B SmartSocket data sheet for technical details.
See Dallas Semiconductor Application Note 4 for modification instructions to allow use of 512K x8 RAM with this part.
