Microchip Technology, Inc. Memory AT25160AY1-10YU-1.8

The AT25160AY1-10YU-1.8 is a 16Kbit serial EEPROM memory device from Lingto Electronic Limited, designed for low-voltage applications with an operating voltage range of 1.8V to 5.5V. It features a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) compatible with modes 0 and 3, allowing for a clock rate of up to 20 MHz. The device supports a 32-byte page mode and includes block write protection, which can protect portions of the memory array. Data integrity is ensured with a self-timed write cycle of a maximum of 5 ms, an endurance of one million write cycles, and a data retention period of up to 100 years. The AT25160AY1-10YU-1.8 is available in various package types, including 8-lead MAP, making it suitable for space-constrained applications. However, it is noted as not recommended for new designs, which may influence purchasing decisions for future projects.
