With its 4 Mbit (512 KBytes) storage capacity, this Adafruit FRAM breakout leverages the power of FRAM (Ferroelectric RAM), offering fast, durable, and reliable memory retention without the need for battery-backed storage. Ideal for a wide range of embedded projects, this breakout board is perfect for data logging, configuration storage, and real-time data applications. With specialties as, 4 Mbit / 512 KBytes Capacity: The Adafruit FRAM breakout provides ample storage space for applications that require fast read and write cycles without sacrificing memory capacity. Non-Volatile FRAM: Unlike traditional volatile memory like SRAM, FRAM retains data even when power is lost, ensuring data persistence and reliability for mission-critical applications. SPI Communication Interface: The Adafruit FRAM breakout utilizes SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) for fast, efficient communication with microcontrollers or processors, providing speeds that rival traditional Flash and EEPROM storage solutions. High-Endurance: FRAM technology offers virtually unlimited write cycles, making this breakout board ideal for projects requiring frequent data updates without worrying about memory wear. RoHS Compliant: This Adafruit FRAM breakout is RoHS compliant, meeting global environmental standards, ensuring safe and responsible use in various industries. Applications: Data Logging & Monitoring: Whether you're tracking sensor data or storing logs for analysis, the Adafruit FRAM breakout is the perfect solution for real-time, non-volatile memory storage. Configuration Storage: Store configuration settings or calibration data that need to persist across power cycles with this fast and reliable FRAM memory. Wearables & IoT Devices: Low-power consumption and fast write capabilities make the Adafruit FRAM breakout an excellent choice for wearable technology and IoT devices. Industrial & Commercial Use: The durability and efficiency of FRAM ensure that the Adafruit FRAM breakout excels in commercial and industrial applications where data integrity and power loss resilience are critical. Incorporating the Adafruit SPI Non-Volatile FRAM Breakout – 4 Mbit / 512 KBytes – MB85RS4MT into your projects means investing in a reliable, high-performance memory solution that keeps your data intact even during power interruptions. With easy integration into your existing setups, this Adafruit FRAM breakout is an essential tool for any maker, engineer, or developer looking to enhance their embedded systems with fast, non-volatile storage. FRAM, or Ferroelectric Ram, is the coolest new data storage method that all the fashion magazines are talking about. Oh wait, no that's quilted handbags. But FRAM is pretty damn cool too! It's similar to Dynamic random-access memory, only with a ferroelectric layer instead of a dielectric layer. This gives it stable handling (the bytes you write are non-volatile) with dynamic responsiveness (you can write them very fast!) We put this handy marvel onto a breakout board with 3.3V logic level shifting and regulator so that tou can use this chip with either 3V or 5V power and logic. It comes in a breadboard-friendly breakout and bit of standard 0.1" header. Features: Interfaces using SPI, and can run at up to 40 MHz clock rates Each byte can be read and written instantaneously (like SRAM) but will keep the memory for 95 years at room temperature This particular FRAM chip has 4 Megabits (512 KBytes) of storage FRAM allows for a lower power usage and a faster write performance It's excellent for low-power or inconsistent-power datalogging or data buffering where you want to stream data fast while also keeping the data when there's no power Unlike Flash or EEPROM there's no pages to worry about Each byte can be read/written 10,000,000,000,000 times so you don't have to worry too much about wear leveling With our SPI FRAM breakout board you can add some FRAM storage to your next DIY project Packages Includes: 1 x Adafruit SPI Non-Volatile FRAM Breakout - 4 Mbit / 512 KBytes - MB85RS4MT RoHS Compliant
