Cypress Semiconductor Excelon™ Ferroelectric-RAM (F-RAM)

Author : Cypress semiconductor Published Time : 2019-05-23
Cypress Semiconductor Excelon™ Ferroelectric-RAM (F-RAM) is next-generation F-RAM that delivers low-power mission-critical nonvolatile memory. The Excelon series combines ultra-low-power operation with high-speed interfaces, instant nonvolatility and unlimited read/write cycle endurance. This makes Excelon the ideal data-logging memory for portable medical, wearable, IoT sensor, industrial and automotive applications. There are three different Excelon families: Excelon-LP, Excelon-Ultra, and Excelon-Auto.

Features

Excelon F-RAM FeaturesUp-to 150x reduction in typical standby current (1μA) and hibernate current (0.1μA) compared to current F-RAMsGreater than 10x increase in performance with the addition of a 108MHz QSPI, compared to competing SPI F-RAMsOffers NoDelay™ writes to capture data instantly with no soak time requirement and without any additional components for power back-up2-Mbit, 4-Mbit, and 8-Mbit density optionsOperating voltage range: 1.71–1.89V and 1.80–3.60VCommercial (0°C to +70°C), Industrial (-40°C to +85°C), Auto-A (-40°C to +85°C) and Auto-E (-40°C to +125°C) temperature grades.

Excelon-Ultra™ for Industrial Automation SystemsProvides multiple power-saving modes, including hibernate, deep power-down and standbyConsumes 200x less energy than EEPROM and 3,000x less energy than NOR Flash productsOffers read/write endurance of 1,000 trillion write cycles to log data every millisecond for more than 3,000 yearsIntroduces 8Mbit density F-RAM, the highest-density Serial F-RAM, to meet the growing data-logging requirement in these applicationsAvailable in small footprint ~10mm2, 8-pin GQFN packageExample Application: Ideal Memory for highly demanding data-logging needs of PLCs

Excelon-Auto™ for Automated Driver Assist SystemsCaptures data instantly with no soak time requirement and also no additional back-up componentsSupports endurance cycling of 1,000 trillion write cycles to log data every μs for 20 yearsProvides AEC-Q100-qualified and Functional Safety compliant memory componentsExample application: Enabling instant and reliable data-capture in ADAS Vision Systems

Excelon-LP™ for Portable Medical, Wearable, and IoT Device Applications (coming soon)Provides multiple power-saving modes, including hibernate, deep power-down and standbyConsumes 200x less energy than EEPROM and 3,000x less energy than NOR Flash productsOffers read/write endurance of 1,000 trillion write cycles to log data every millisecond for more than 3,000 yearsIntroduces 8Mbit density F-RAM, the highest-density Serial F-RAM, to meet the growing data-logging requirement in these applicationsAvailable in small footprint ~10mm2, 8-pin GQFN packageExample application: Providing extended battery life, high reliability and small form-factor for Portable Medical Applications
