FM16W08-SG(28-pin“Green” SOIC)

Introduction

The FM16W08 is a 64-kilobit nonvolatile memory employing an advanced ferroelectric process. A ferroelectric random access memory or F-RAM is nonvolatile but operates in other respects as a RAM.It provides data retention for 38 years while eliminating
the reliability concerns,functional disadvantages and system design complexities of battery-backed SRAM (BBSRAM). Fast write timing and high write endurance make F-RAM superior to other types of nonvolatile memory.

In-system operation of the FM16W08 is very similar to other R AM devices. Minimum read- and write-cycle times are equal. The F-RAM memory, however,is nonvolatile due to its unique ferroelectric memory process. Unlike BBSRAM, the FM16W08 is a truly monolithic nonvolatile memory. It provides the same functional benefits of a fast write without the disadvantages associated with modules and batteries or hybrid memory solutions.

These capabilities make the FM16W08 ideal for nonvolatile memory applications requiring frequent or rapid writes in a bytewide environment. The availability of a true surface-mount package improves ,the manufacturability of new designs. Device specifi-cations are guaranteed over an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.
