VCC Noise And Negative Going Transients

ICC transients, including those produced by output

switching, can produce voltage fluctuations, re-

sulting in spikes on the VCC bus. These transients

can be reduced if capacitors are used to store en-

ergy, which stabilizes the VCC bus. The energy

stored in the bypass capacitors will be released as

low going spikes are generated or energy will be

absorbed when overshoots occur.

A ceramic bypass capacitor value of 0.1µF is rec-

ommended in order to provide the needed filtering.

In addition to transients that are caused by normal

SRAM operation, power cycling can generate neg-

ative voltage spikes on VCC that drive it to values

below VSS by as much as one volt. These negative

spikes can cause data corruption in the SRAM

while in battery backup mode. To protect from

these voltage spikes, ST recommends connecting

a schottky diode from VCC to VSS (cathode con-

nected to VCC, anode to VSS). (Schottky diode

1N5817 is recommended for through hole and

MBRS120T3 is recommended for surface mount).
