Limited Warranty Technologic Systems warrants this product to be free of defects in material and workmanship for a period of one year from date of purchase. During this warranty period Technologic Systems will repair or replace the defective unit in accordance with the following instructions: •...
Getting Started X86 Architecture Install only jumpers 3 and 4 on the TS-NVRAM2, this will put the board in 8-bit mode and set the base address for all registers in the I/O space at 0x140. After a system reset, only the eight I/O registers will appear on the PC/104 bus (no memory range will be decoded) -- this will avoid any conflicts with any other devices.
(CR2450 coin cell), this results in a typical 15-30 year life span. But if the unit is operated at high temperatures for its entire life, this will lower the battery life. For example, if the TS-NVRAM2 board is operated at 70 degrees Celsius continuously, the lithium battery is likely to fail after 3-4 years.

ID #2 ID_2 Address: Base + 1 (Read Only) Definition: This register allows one to determine the board ID. Bit Description: ID_2: Identification byte is hard coded to 0xD9. PLD Version Address: Base + 2 (Read Only) Definition: This register allows one to determine the revision of the PLD. Bit Description: REV: The revision number of the PLD.

Page Register RSVD RSVD PAGE_SELECT Address: Base + 4 (Read/Write) Definition: This register allows one to select the current page when in paged mode. At reset PAGE_SELECT is set to 0x00. Bit Description: PAGE_SELECT: When in paged mode this register allows one to select one of 64 pages for NVRAM access (each page is 32 KB).

Invalid Current Drain The TS-NVRAM2 uses approximately 50 mA of current from the PC/104 bus 5V supply. When the PC/104 5V is not present, the RAM chips are powered by the lithium battery (CR2450). Approximately 2-4 uA of backup current is required to power the RAM chips in this mode.
Temperature Range The TS-NVRAM2 is available in both standard temperature (-20 to +70 degrees Celsius) and in extended temperature range of –40 to +85 degrees Celsius.
