M41ST87Y, M41ST87W Operating modes

negative voltage generated by the charge pump during a tamper condition, and from being 
pulled to ground by the output of the charge pump when it is in shut-down mode (SHDN
 = 
logic low). The gates of both MOSFETs should be connected to TP
CLR
 as shown in 
Figure 20 on page 25. One n-channel enhancement MOSFET should be placed between 
the output of the inverting charge pump and the V
OUT
 of the M41ST87. The other MOSFET 
should be an enhancement mode p-channel, and placed between V
OUT
 of the M41ST87 
and V
CC
 of the external SRAM. When TP
CLR
 goes high after a tamper condition occurs, the 
n-channel MOSFET will turn on and the p-channel will turn off. During normal operating 
conditions, TP
CLR
 will be low and the p-channel will be on, while the n-channel will be off.
