Rohm has developed the industry's first SPI compatible BR25Hxx0 EEPROMs (non-volatile memory) for applications exposed to harsh environmental conditions such as automotive ECUs, where damage is a possibility due to surges and static electricity during startup and vibration and heat during operation.
Features include double-cell construction, guaranteed operation at 125°C, the industry’s highest ESD resistance (6kV), gold pad/gold wire connections, and double reset functionality for high reliability. High redundancy circuits and processes combined with thorough screening and debugging ensure 1 million rewrites at 85°C and 300,000 rewrites at 125°C.
