Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix DWDW4TP/K against official datasheets to confirm package type and tape-and-reel specifications. Ensure compatibility with the required SPI interface speed and voltage levels for the target application. Confirm that the 8-TSSOP footprint matches the PCB design constraints before finalizing procurement.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this component when automotive-grade reliability and high-temperature operation up to 145°C are required. It is suitable for applications needing byte-alterable non-volatile memory with enhanced data integrity features. Consider the 16 Kbit capacity and SPI interface speed when designing systems that require moderate storage density with fast access times.

Memory IC Part Context

This part belongs to the M95160-A145 series of automotive serial EEPROMs. It shares core architecture with other variants like the M95160-A125 but offers an extended temperature range up to 145°C. The series is designed for robust performance in demanding automotive environments, providing reliable data retention and write endurance.
