●Functional Description
●The FM24C16B is a 16-Kbit nonvolatile memory employing an advanced ferroelectric process. A ferroelectric random access memory or F-RAM is nonvolatile and performs reads and writes similar to a RAM. It provides reliable data retention for 151 years while eliminating the complexities, overhead, and system-level reliability problems caused by EEPROM and other nonvolatile memories.
●Features
●■16-Kbit ferroelectric random access memory (F-RAM) logically organized as 2 K × 8
●❐High-endurance 100 trillion (1014) read/writes
●❐151-year data retention (See the Data Retention and Endurancetable)
●❐NoDelay™ writes
●❐Advanced high-reliability ferroelectric process
●■Fast 2-wire Serial interface (I2C)
●❐Up to 1-MHz frequency
●❐Direct hardware replacement for serial (I2C) EEPROM
●❐Supports legacy timings for 100 kHz and 400 kHz
●■Low power consumption
●❐100 A active current at 100 kHz
