EM128LXQADG13IS1T

Memory IC Overview

The EM128LXQADG13IS1T is a magnetoresistive random access memory (MRAM) integrated circuit manufactured by Everspin Technologies. It features a storage capacity of 128 Mbit organized as 16 M x 8 bits. The device utilizes a Quad SPI interface and operates at a clock frequency of 133 MHz. It functions within a supply voltage range of 1.65 V to 2 V, with typical operating currents specified at 125 mA and 157 mA. The component is housed in an 8-DFN package designed for surface mount technology (SMD/SMT). Its operational temperature range extends from -40°C to +85°C.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• Non-volatile data retention capability inherent to MRAM technology
• Quad Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) compatibility for high-speed communication
• Wide operating voltage range supporting low-power applications

Memory IC Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust non-volatile storage
• Automotive electronics operating within extended temperature ranges
• Embedded systems needing fast write endurance and low latency

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'T' indicates tray packaging when sourcing. Confirm the industrial temperature grade (-40°C to +85°C) matches system requirements. Ensure the 8-DFN footprint aligns with PCB layout constraints. Validate that the 1.65V to 2V supply rail is stable under all load conditions to maintain signal integrity during 133 MHz operations.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this part for applications demanding high endurance and instant wake-up times compared to flash memory. The 128 Mbit density suits moderate storage needs where speed is critical. Consider the 8-DFN package size for space-constrained designs. Verify compatibility with existing SPI controllers supporting quad mode protocols. Evaluate power consumption profiles against battery life requirements given the specified current draw.

Memory IC Part Context

This component belongs to the EMxxLX series of MRAM devices from Everspin Technologies. These devices are characterized by high performance, multiple I/O options, and SPI compatibility. The series targets applications requiring non-volatile memory with unlimited write endurance and fast read/write speeds, bridging the gap between SRAM volatility and Flash persistence.
