DS1222 Datasheet PDF - Dallas Semiconductor -> Maxim Integrated

DESCRIPTION
The DS1222 BankSwitch Chip is a CMOS circuit designed to select one of 16 memory banks under software control. Memory bank switching allows for an increase in memory capacity without additional address lines. Continuous blocks of memory are enabled by selecting proper memory bank through a pattern recognition sequence on four address inputs. Custom patterns from Dallas Semiconductor can provide security through uniqueness and prevent unauthorized access. By combining the DS1222 with the DS1212 Nonvolatile Controller x16 Chip, up to 16 banks of static RAMs can be selected.

FEATURES
