The MR2A08A offers SRAM compatible 35ns read/write timing with unlimited endurance. Data is always non-volatile for greater than 20-years. Data is automatically protected on power loss by low-voltage inhibit circuitry to prevent writes with voltage out of specification. The MR2A08A is the ideal memory solution for applications that must permanently store and retrieve critical data and programs quickly. The MR2A08A is available in small footprint 400-mil, 44-lead plastic small-outline TSOP type 2 package or 8 mm x 8 mm, 48-pin ball grid array (BGA) package with 0.75 mm ball centers. These packages are compatible with similar low-power SRAM products and other non-volatile RAM products. The MR2A08A provides highly reliable data storage over a wide range of temperatures. The product is offered with commercial temperature range (0 to +70 C), industrial temperature range (-40 to +85 C), and AEC-Q100 Grade 1 temperature range (-40 to +125 C) options. CONTENTS 1.

ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS Absolute Maximum Ratings This device contains circuitry to protect the inputs against damage caused by high static voltages or electric fields; however, it is advised that normal precautions be taken to avoid application of any voltage greater than maximum rated voltages to these high-impedance (Hi-Z) circuits. The device also contains protection against external magnetic fields. Precautions should be taken to avoid application of any magnetic field more intense than the maximum field intensity specified in the maximum ratings.

See Power Up and Power Down Sequencing below. VIH(max) = VDD + 0.3 VDC ; VIH(max) = VDD + 2.0 VAC (pulse width 10 ns) for I 20.0 mA. VIL(min) = -0.5 VDC ; VIL(min) = -2.0 VAC (pulse width 10 ns) for I 20.0 mA. AEC-Q100 Grade 1 temperature profile assumes 10% duty cycle at maximum temperature (2-years out of 20-year life) Power Up and Power Down Sequencing The MRAM is protected from write operations whenever VDD is less than VWI. As soon as VDD exceeds VDD(min), there is a startup time of 2 ms before read or write operations can start. This time allows memory power supplies to stabilize. The E and W control signals should track VDD on power up to VDD- 0.2 V or VIH (whichever is lower) and remain high for the startup time. In most systems, this means that these signals should be pulled up with a resistor so that signal remains high if the driving signal is Hi-Z during power up. Any logic that drives E and W should hold the signals high with a power-on reset signal for longer than the startup time. During power loss or brownout where VDD goes below VWI, writes are protected and a startup time must be observed when power returns above VDD(min).
