1 Description
The M4TXX-BR12SH SNAPHAT® top is a detachable lithium power source for ST’s non-
volatile TIMEKEEPER® surface-mount SOIC (MH) package (28- and 44-pin).
The SNAPHAT top contains both the battery and crystal and is designed to be “snapped on”
after the SOIC is surface mounted on the PC board. Thus the two piece solution prevents
the battery and crystal from being exposed to the high temperatures of the surface mount
process.

Stressing the device above the rating listed in the absolute maximum ratings table may
cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only and operation of the
device at these or any other conditions above those indicated in the operating sections of
this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for
extended periods may affect device reliability. Refer also to the STMicroelectronics SURE
program and other relevant quality documents.

4 Mechanical information
Electrical connection to the SOIC is made through four pins that connect to the four press
fitted sockets at each end of the SOIC. Critical contact points between the pins and sockets
are gold-plated to resist oxidation. Internally, each socket contains six independent contact
fingers to form redundant connections between the two components. These sockets were
designed with high point contact force to provide the lowest possible contact resistance. The
SNAPHAT® top also incorporates four molded-in retaining clips which hold onto the ends of
the SOIC insuring mechanical and electrical connection even under severe mechanical
shock and vibration. The combined SOIC and SNAPHAT assembly can sustain shock levels
in excess of 100 g without separating. This package also passes variable frequency testing
in accordance with MIL-STD-883, method 2007.2, condition A.
Figure 2 illustrates the affect of repeated insertion and extraction of the SNAPHAT top to the
SOIC. The force required to extract the SNAPHAT, and then to re-insert it, reduces each
time. After four or five extractions, the reduction starts to become unnoticeable and the force
required remains at a fairly constant figure. Typically, though, the SNAPHAT will only need to
be extracted and re-inserted once in its lifetime.

4.1 Battery characteristics
Figure 3 on page 10 illustrates the lithium coin cell discharge rate for a given load. This
demonstrates the characteristically flat voltage level supplied by the battery until very near
the end of its life. These discharge levels have been greatly accelerated in comparison to
the normal, actual usage.
Note: These batteries contain no mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd), or lead (Pb).
4.2 UL recognition
The M4Txx-BR12SH has been recognized by Underwriters Laboratories under their
Component Recognition Program and carries U.L. File Number E89556.
4.3 Battery life
For information on data retention life and battery storage life, please refer to the application
note AN1012.
4.4 General notes
ST has conducted experiments using a manual press which determined that if
approximately 60 pounds of force is applied to the top of the SNAPHAT®, battery damage
and/or die cracks could be induced. As Figure 2 on page 8 specifies, only an average of less
than 13 force-pounds is required for proper insertion. We recommend that no more than 40
pounds of force be applied during SNAPHAT insertion.
If a manual press in employed, it is very important that it be calibrated such that it cannot
exceed this limit.
To remove the SNAPHAT top for replacement, a DIP/IC extractor tool should be used (see
Figure 4). The SNAPHAP top should be grabbed by the narrow end to avoid bending the
pins.
Caution: To avoid draining battery do NOT place SNAPHAT pins into conductive foam.
Caution: To avoid damaging SNAPHAT sockets do NOT wave solder SOIC.
