E.2.1 Replacing the Backup Battery
The battery is user-replaceable, and is fitted in a battery holder. To replace the battery, lift
up on the spring clip and slide out the old battery. Use only a Panasonic CR2330 or equiv-
alent replacement battery, and insert it into the battery holder with the + side facing up.
E.2.2 Power to VRAM Switch
The VRAM switch on the LP3500 module, shown in Figure E-3, allows the battery
backup to provide power when the external power goes off. The switch provides an isola-
tion between Vcc and the battery when Vcc goes low. This prevents the Vcc line from
draining the battery.
Field-effect transistor Q12 provides a very small voltage drop between Vcc and VRAM
(<100 mV, typically 10 mV) so that the board components powered by Vcc will not have a
significantly different voltage than VRAM.
When the LP3500 is not in reset, the
nearly equal Vcc.
When the LP3500 is in reset, the
between Vcc and VRAM.
