Ramtron FM24C04A
The FM24C04A is a 4-kilobit nonvolatile memory employing an advanced ferroelectric process. It provides reliable data retention for 10 years while eliminating the complexities, overhead, and system level reliability problems caused by EEPROM and other nonvolatile memories. Unlike serial EEPROMs, the FM24C04A performs write operations at bus speed.| Part No. | FM24C04A |

DESCRIPTION
A ferroelectric random access memory or FRAM is nonvolatile and performs reads and writes like a RAM. No write delays are incurred. Data is written to the memory array in the cycle after it has been successfully transferred to the device. The next bus cycle may commence immediately. These capabilities make the FM24C04A ideal for nonvolatile memory applications requiring frequent or rapid writes. Examples range from data collection where the number of write cycles may be critical, to demanding industrial controls where the long write time of EEPROM can cause data loss.
