Siplas Launched Excelon ™ F-RAM ™ High-Reliability Non-Easy Loss Memory Series

Cypress Semiconductor Corporation (NASDAQ: CY), a leader in advanced embedded solutions, today announced a new family of serial nonvolatile memories that deliver high performance and high reliability for mission-critical data acquisition. The Excelon™ Ferroelectric Random Access Memory (F-RAM™) family features high-speed non-volatile data logging that prevents data loss even in harsh automotive and industrial environments, as well as under extreme temperatures. The ExcelonAuto series has an automotive-grade storage density of 2Mb to 4Mb, while the ExcelonUltra series has an industrial-grade storage density of 4Mb to 8Mb. Both families are available in small package options with low pin counts, making them ideal for a variety of advanced automotive and industrial applications.

The ExcelonAuto series offers an AEC-Q100 extended temperature option that complies with functional safety standards (ISO 26262). The ExcelonUltra family offers 108-MHz Quad SPI performance superior to traditional memories. The inherent NoDelayTM instant write function of the Excelon series also eliminates the "data risk" caused by power failure that cannot be overcome by the volatile data buffer in the traditional technology, and adopts the QFN package with reduced pin count. The family operates from 1.71 V to 3.6 V and is packaged in industry-standard RoHS-compliant packages that are pin-compatible with EEPROM and other nonvolatile memories. All Cypress F-RAMs have a lifetime of 100 trillion (1014) read/write cycles, with data retention of 10 years at 85°C and 151 years at 65°C.

"As the number of semi- and fully autonomous vehicles deployed increases, the ability of real-time vehicle data loggers to instantly capture the latest accident data will be a game-changer for crash forensics," said Sam Geha, executive vice president of the Memory Products Group at Cypress. .In addition, the deployment of Industry 4.0 requires high-speed, high-reliability data recording to ensure the normal operation of the system while improving efficiency. There is no room for failure when processing this valuable data as well as mission-critical. Cypra With instant non-volatility, high-speed, high-endurance and low-power modes, the new Excelon F-RAM outperforms other non-volatile memories and is ideal for capturing and protecting the most critical data in advanced factory automation and industrial IoT systems Ideal choice."

Cypress demonstrated Excelon F-RAM and its complete portfolio of embedded system solutions at the recent Embedded Systems Show in Nuremberg, Germany.
