S29CL016J0MFAI030

Memory IC Overview

The S29CL016J0MFAI030 is a 16 Mbit (512K x 32-bit) CMOS burst-mode Flash memory fabricated using 110-nm floating gate technology. It operates on a single 3.0V to 3.6V supply and supports simultaneous read/write operations with zero latency across two separate banks. The device features a 40 MHz clock frequency, an initial burst access delay of 4-1-1-1, and a maximum asynchronous access time of 54 ns. It utilizes an 80-ball Fortified Ball Grid Array package with a 1.0 mm pitch and measures 13 x 11 mm. The component offers dual boot sector configuration, VersatileI/O control, and extended temperature range capabilities.

Memory IC Feature Summary

• Simultaneous Read/Write operation with zero latency on two separate banks
• Dual Boot Sector Configuration supporting top or bottom boot options
• VersatileI/O control allowing I/O voltage levels from 1.65V to 3.6V
• Secured Silicon Sector for factory or customer locked data storage

Memory IC Applications

• Automotive electronic systems requiring high reliability
• Embedded applications needing simultaneous code execution and data logging
• Systems utilizing VersatileI/O for mixed-voltage logic interfaces
• Boot code storage in microcontroller-based designs

Memory IC Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffixes against the manufacturer's valid combinations list to ensure correct package type, temperature range, and boot sector configuration. Confirm that the required autoselect ID option matches system initialization requirements. Check for lead-free material set availability if environmental compliance is mandatory. Ensure the selected packing type aligns with manufacturing assembly processes.

Memory IC Selection Notes

Select this device when simultaneous read and write performance is critical for application throughput. Choose the S29CL016J series over the S29CD-J variant if the system design requires a 3.3V supply rather than 2.6V. Consider the Fortified BGA package for compact layouts requiring robust solder joint integrity. Verify that the 54 ns access time meets the timing constraints of the host processor bus interface.

Memory IC Part Context

This component belongs to the S29CL-J family of 16 Mbit burst-mode Flash memories designed for demanding automotive environments. It shares architectural similarities with the 32 Mbit S29CL032J but provides half the density. The family is characterized by its 110-nm process technology and support for Common Flash Interface (CFI). It serves as a non-volatile storage solution for firmware and persistent data in complex embedded systems.

Memory IC Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements within the same family include other S29CL016J variants with different packages or temperatures. Cross-family migration may require schematic changes due to voltage differences between S29CL-J (3.3V) and S29CD-J (2.6V) devices. Verify pin compatibility when substituting between PQFP and BGA packages.
