Meeting Non-Volatile Data Logging Requirements for Automotive and Industrial Systems
Suitable for factory automation solutions and vehicle event data logging devices

Infineon Technologies (hereinafter Infineon) has introduced F-RAM memory that meets the non-volatile data logging requirements of next-generation automotive and industrial systems.

Infineon announced on the 3rd that it is launching 8Mb and 16Mb EXCELON™ F-RAM memory, the industry's highest density serial F-RAM.

8Mb and 16Mb EXCELON F-RAM (Ferroelectric RAM) memory meets the non-volatile data logging requirements of next-generation automotive and industrial systems, preventing data loss in harsh operating environments.

This memory operates over a wide voltage range of 1.71V to 3.6V and supports up to 54MBps data throughput via a Low Pin Count (LPC) interface, and is provided in a RoHS-compliant 24-ball FBGA package.

EXCELON F-RAM is a next-generation ferroelectric RAM.

This new memory product is a mission-critical non-volatile memory that operates at the lowest power in the industry and features ultra-low power operation and a high-speed interface, immediate non-volatility, and unlimited read/write cycle endurance.
<bThe read and write performance of these serial memories is the same as that of parallel interface battery-supported SRAM with an access time of 35ns.

In addition, with fast writing speed, excellent durability, and high energy efficiency, it is suitable as a data logging memory for automotive, industrial, and medical applications.

“With the increase in connected sensors in vehicles, data logging requirements have created a need for high-density memory capable of reliably and immediately collecting data in the event of a power outage,” said Ramesh Chetuvetti, Head of the RAM Product Line at Infineon’s Automotive Business Unit. “Infineon’s EXCELON F-RAM products are suitable for factory automation solutions and vehicle event data loggers because they provide outstanding performance and reliability for mission-critical data collection without sacrificing ultra-low power operation.”
