[sdiy] uPD444 RAM battery power

[Ullrich Peter]

The standby current of this RAM is not 10nA - this would make every user happy - it is 1uA.
See: http://www.pisi.com.pl/piotr433/manuals/upd444.pdf

But the voltage drop at 1µA is also not 1V at this low current.

Ciao
Peter

Not many diodes will drop 1V at 10nA.
