CY15E064Q 64-Kbit (8K 8) Serial (SPI) Automotive-A F-RAM 64-Kbit (8K 8) Serial (SPI) Automotive-A F-RAM Features Functional Description 64-Kbit ferroelectric random access memory (F-RAM) logically The CY15E064Q is a 64-Kbit nonvolatile memory employing an organized as 8K 8 advanced ferroelectric process. A ferroelectric random access 14 High-endurance 100 trillion (10 ) read/writes memory or F-RAM is nonvolatile and performs reads and writes similar to a RAM. It provides reliable data retention for 151 years 151-year data retention (See the Data Retention and Endurance table) while eliminating the complexities, overhead, and system level reliability problems caused by serial flash, EEPROM, and other NoDelay writes nonvolatile memories. Advanced high-reliability ferroelectric process Very fast serial peripheral interface (SPI) Unlike serial flash and EEPROM, the CY15E064Q performs write operations at bus speed. No write delays are incurred. Data Up to 20 MHz frequency is written to the memory array immediately after each byte is Direct hardware replacement for serial flash and EEPROM successfully transferred to the device. The next bus cycle can Supports SPI mode 0 (0, 0) and mode 3 (1, 1) commence without the need for data polling. In addition, the Sophisticated write protection scheme product offers substantial write endurance compared with other Hardware protection using the Write Protect (WP) pin nonvolatile memories. The CY15E064Q is capable of supporting 14 Software protection using Write Disable instruction 10 read/write cycles, or 100 million times more write cycles Software block protection for 1/4, 1/2, or entire array than EEPROM. These capabilities make the CY15E064Q ideal for nonvolatile Low power consumption memory applications requiring frequent or rapid writes. 250 A active current at 1 MHz Examples range from data collection, where the number of write 4 A (typ) standby current cycles may be critical, to demanding industrial controls where the Voltage operation: V = 4.5 V to 5.5 V DD long write time of serial flash or EEPROM can cause data loss. Automotive-A temperature: 40 C to +85 C The CY15E064Q provides substantial benefits to users of serial EEPROM or flash as a hardware drop-in replacement. The 8-pin small outline integrated circuit (SOIC) package CY15E064Q uses the high-speed SPI bus, which enhances the Restriction of hazardous substances (RoHS) compliant high-speed write capability of F-RAM technology. The device specifications are guaranteed over an automotive-a temperature range of 40 C to +85 C.
