Functional Overview
The FM28V100 is a 128 K × 8 nonvolatile memory that reads and
writes similar to a standard SRAM. A ferroelectric random
access memory or F-RAM is nonvolatile, which means that data
is retained after power is removed. It provides data retention for
over 151 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 the F-RAM superior to other types of
memory.
The FM28V100 operation is similar to that of other RAM devices
and therefore, it can be used as a drop-in replacement for a
standard SRAM in a system. Read and write cycles may be
triggered by chip enable or simply by changing the address. The
F-RAM memory is nonvolatile due to its unique ferroelectric
memory process. These features make the FM28V100 ideal for
nonvolatile memory applications requiring frequent or rapid
writes.
The device is available in a 32-pin TSOP I surface mount
package. Device specifications are guaranteed over the
industrial temperature range –40 °C to +85 °C.
