CAV25010YE-GT3

Memory IC Overview

The CAV25010YE-GT3 is a 1-kbit (128x8) serial EEPROM from onsemi, designed for automotive applications. It features an SPI interface supporting modes (0,0) and (1,1) with a clock frequency up to 10 MHz. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 2.5 V to 5.5 V and is qualified to AEC-Q100 Grade 1 standards for temperatures between -40°C and +125°C. It utilizes a TSSOP-8 package and includes hardware/software write protection.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• Automotive-grade qualification compliant with AEC-Q100 standards for extended temperature operation.
• Supports Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) protocol with dedicated hold functionality for communication pausing.
• Includes hardware and software write protection mechanisms, allowing partial or full array locking via status register bits.

Memory IC Applications

• Automotive electronic control units requiring non-volatile data storage.
• Industrial systems needing reliable memory in harsh thermal environments.
• Embedded devices utilizing SPI bus architecture for configuration storage.

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'Y' confirms the TSSOP-8 package variant rather than SOIC-8. Confirm the 'GT3' designation indicates tape and reel shipping format. Ensure the order number matches the exact 1-kbit capacity requirement, as other capacities exist within the same family.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this component when SPI compatibility and automotive reliability are required. Compare against CAV25020 or CAV25040 if higher memory density is needed. Verify that the 16-byte page write buffer meets system throughput requirements. Ensure the host controller supports the required SPI clock speeds and modes.

Memory IC Part Context

This part belongs to the CAV25010/20/40 series of serial EEPROMs. It shares functional similarities with the CAT25010 but offers enhanced automotive qualification. The device is manufactured using low-power CMOS technology and is available in lead-free, halogen-free packages compliant with RoHS directives.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

CAV25020YE-GT3: Higher capacity (2-kbit) with identical interface and package. CAV25040YE-GT3: Higher capacity (4-kbit) with identical interface and package. CAT25010VI-GT3: Commercial grade alternative with similar specifications but different automotive qualification status.
