MR2A16ACMA35

Memory IC Overview

The MR2A16ACMA35 is a 4 Mbit (256K x 16) parallel interface Magnetoresistive Random Access Memory (MRAM) manufactured by Everspin Technologies. It operates with a 3.3 V power supply and features a 35 ns access time. The device utilizes a BGA-48 package for surface mount installation. It supports an industrial temperature range from -40°C to +85°C and meets RoHS compliance standards.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• Provides unlimited read and write endurance, eliminating wear-out limitations found in flash memory technologies.
• Retains data non-volatilely for over 20 years without requiring external power or battery backup.
• Offers SRAM-compatible timing to allow integration into existing systems without controller redesign.

Memory IC Applications

• Replacing battery-backed SRAM solutions to improve system reliability.
• Simplifying designs by consolidating Flash, SRAM, and EEPROM functions into a single component.
• Industrial instrumentation requiring high endurance and data retention.

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official datasheets to confirm package type and temperature grade. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints for the BGA-48 configuration. Confirm moisture sensitivity level requirements during storage and handling procedures prior to assembly.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems that require high-speed random access combined with non-volatile data retention. It serves as a direct drop-in replacement for traditional SRAM where power loss protection is critical. Evaluate thermal management needs within the specified industrial operating range.

Memory IC Part Context

This part belongs to the MR2A16A series of parallel MRAM devices. It represents a class of memory solutions designed to bridge the performance gap between volatile SRAM and non-volatile Flash. The series emphasizes durability and speed for embedded applications.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

Check for equivalent parts such as MR2A16ACYS35 or MR2A16ACTS35C which share similar electrical characteristics but may differ in package style or commercial temperature ratings.
