MR1A16AMA35

Memory IC Overview

The MR1A16AMA35 is a magnetoresistive random access memory (MRAM) device manufactured by Everspin Technologies. It features a storage capacity of 2 Mbit organized as 128 k x 16 bits with a 16-bit data bus width. The component utilizes a parallel interface and offers an access time of 35 ns. It operates within a supply voltage range of 3 V to 3.6 V, with power dissipation rated at 600 mW. The device supports surface mount installation in a TSOP-II-44 package and functions across an industrial temperature range from -40°C to +125°C.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• Provides non-volatile data retention without requiring backup power sources.
• Delivers SRAM-compatible read/write timing for direct replacement applications.
• Supports unlimited write endurance cycles compared to traditional flash memory technologies.

Memory IC Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring high reliability
• Automotive electronics operating in extreme temperatures
• Embedded systems needing fast boot-up times

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'AMA35' against official Everspin documentation to confirm pinout compatibility and electrical specifications. Ensure the procurement channel provides genuine components with traceable manufacturing dates. Confirm that the TSOP-II-44 package variant matches the target PCB footprint requirements before finalizing orders.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems that require non-volatile memory with infinite endurance and SRAM-like speed. The 128k x 16 organization suits applications needing wide data buses. Consider the -40°C to +125°C operating range for harsh environments. Verify power consumption limits against system thermal constraints given the 600 mW dissipation rating.

Memory IC Part Context

This part belongs to the MR1A16A series of parallel MRAM devices from Everspin Technologies. These devices are designed to replace volatile SRAM or non-volatile Flash/EEPROM in embedded applications. The series emphasizes durability and speed, targeting industries where data integrity and write cycle longevity are critical performance factors.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other MR1A16A series variants with compatible interfaces. Verify pin-to-pin compatibility with existing SRAM designs. Check if alternative MRAM packages like BGA-48 offer space savings while maintaining electrical equivalence.
