EM016LXOBB320ES2R

Memory IC Overview

The EM016LXOBB320ES2R is a magnetoresistive random-access memory integrated circuit manufactured by Everspin Technologies. It features a 16 Mbit storage capacity organized as 2 Megawords by 8 bits. The device utilizes an Octal SPI interface and supports clock frequencies up to 200 MHz. It operates within a supply voltage range of 1.65 V to 2 V. The component is housed in a 24-ball BGA package designed for surface mount technology. It is rated for industrial operating temperatures ranging from -40°C to +105°C.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• Non-volatile data retention capability inherent to MRAM technology
• High-speed serial communication via Octal SPI interface
• Industrial temperature range operation for robust environmental performance

Memory IC Applications

• Data logging systems requiring persistent storage
• Configuration memory for embedded processors
• Industrial control applications needing fast write endurance

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current datasheet to ensure compatibility with required package variations and temperature grades. Confirm that the Octal SPI interface requirements align with the host controller's capabilities. Check for any recent revisions to the RoHS compliance status or lead-free specifications before finalizing procurement orders.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this component when non-volatility, high write endurance, and fast access speeds are critical. Ensure the host system supports the 1.65 V to 2 V supply voltage range. Verify that the PCB layout accommodates the 24-ball BGA footprint and thermal requirements for the specified industrial temperature range.

Memory IC Part Context

This part belongs to the Everspin MRAM family, which combines the speed of SRAM with the non-volatility of flash memory. It is designed for applications demanding high reliability and unlimited write cycles. The Octal SPI variant offers increased bandwidth compared to standard SPI interfaces.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

Consult the official Everspin cross-reference guide for verified substitutes. Ensure any replacement maintains the same 16 Mbit capacity, Octal SPI interface, and 24-BGA package form factor.
