Automotive Flash memory

23 March 2016 DSP, Micros & Memory

New from Microchip comes a range of automotive-grade NOR Flash products with wide voltage and temperature range. The SST26VF Serial Quad I/O devices, available in densities of 16, 32 and 64 Mb, operate at Automotive Grade 2 and 3, across an operating voltage from 2,7 V down to 2,3 V and at temperatures up to 105°C. They consume 15 mA in typical high-speed operating conditions, which benefits automotive applications working to meet growing energy-saving requirements. The robustness of the SuperFlash technology memory cell brings high endurance to rewrite cycling and excellent data retention with extremely low failure rate and good performance at high temperatures. The chips also support the long life cycle required by the automotive industry.
