COLORADO SPRINGS, CO - January 9, 2012 - Ramtron
International Corporation (Nasdaq: RMTR), the leading
developer and supplier of nonvolatile ferroelectric random
access memory (F-RAM) and integrated semiconductor products,
today announced the FM25V20, a 2-megabit (Mb) high
performance serial F-RAM device. The FM25V20 is a member of
Ramtron's
V-Family of F-RAM products, which offers a wide operating
voltage range of 2.0 to 3.6-volts. The FM25V20 features fast
access, NoDelay™ writes, virtually unlimited read/write
cycles (1e14), and low power consumption. The latest F-RAM
device is a drop-in replacement for 2-Mb serial Flash and
serial EEPROM memories in a broad number of applications
including industrial controls, metering, medical, military,
gaming, and computing applications.
"The FM25V20 provides more nonvolatile memory capacity for demanding data collection applications as well as an easy upgrade path to higher densities for our current V-Family F-RAM customers," said Ramtron marketing manager, Craig Taylor. "The expansion of our V-Family product line supports our on-going initiative to provide low energy and high data integrity memory solutions that eliminate the complexities, overhead, and system level reliability issues often encountered with other nonvolatile memories."
About the FM25V20
The FM25V20 employs an advanced ferroelectric process that
yields virtually unlimited endurance of 100-trillion (1e14)
read/write cycles and reliable data retention for 10 years.
The FM25V20 uses a fast serial peripheral interface (SPI),
operating up to full bus speed of 40MHz frequency. The low
power operation features a wide-voltage operation of 2.0V to
3.6V, a typical standby current of 100µA, and a sleep mode
current of 3µA. A read-only Device ID feature, standard on
the serial V-Family devices, allows the host to determine the
manufacturer, product density, and product revision. The
FM25V20 operates over an industrial temperature range of
-40°C to +85°C and is available in standard
"Green"/RoHS-compliant 8-pin EIAJ SOIC and 8-pin TDFN
packages.
