BR24L16FV-WE2 Application Field and Working Principle

BR24L16FV-WE2 is a high density 16KB I2C Bus Serial EEPROM integrated circuit designed by ROHM Semiconductor. The device is one of the most popular memory components used in a variety of products and application fields. This article provides a brief overview of the applications of BR24L16FV-WE2 as well as its working principle.

Application Fields of BR24L16FV-WE2

BR24L16FV-WE2 is a memory component widely used in the control systems for a variety of products. It is used in professional audio systems for storing the settings and playback parameters, medical and industrial instruments for storing the measuring data, and automotive for storing the settings and parameters. Additionally, BR24L16FV-WE2 is used in educational and arcade machines for displaying the graphic characters as well as animation and also in smartphones, tablets, and PCs for storing the configuration settings.

Working Principle of BR24L16FV-WE2

The BR24L16FV-WE2 is designed using a CMOS 0.18µm process and features a High Speed I2C Bus and an SPI Bus architecture. The device includes a 16K-bit Serial EEPROM Memory array, a 8-bit I2C Bus Serial Interface, and can operate in an extended temperature range from -40°C to +85°C. The device can be programmed and read at a data rate of up to 400KHz in I2C and up to 20Mbits/sec in SPI. It also features a programmable Memory Protect function and has a maximum write endurance of 10,000 cycles and a data retention of 10 years.

To read/write the memory data, the microcontroller generates Start, Data, Address, and Control signals which are then decoded by the internal logic of the device. The Data signals are then stored in the memory array and read back upon request. The latency dependant on the number of bits to be read/written and the clock frequency, the write cycle times are nominally less than 5us and read cycles are typically less than 8us.

Conclusion

BR24L16FV-WE2 is an integrated circuit specifically designed for high density 16KB serial EEPROM applications such as audio systems, medical and industrial instruments, automotive, educational and arcade machines, smartphones, tablets and PCs. It features a High Speed I2C Bus and an SPI Bus architecture, can operate in an extended temperature range from -40°C to +85°C, and provides a maximum write endurance of 10,000 cycles and data retention of 10 years. It is an extremely helpful component for modern applications.
