Key Differentiators
- Higher endurance than cross-brand alternatives (vs 25AA1024-I/SM)
- Automotive-grade variant available (vs CAT25M01)
- Same-brand package flexibility (vs M95M01-DWMN6TP)
Design Notes
Place a 0.1uF decoupling capacitor close to the VCC pin (pin 8) and a 10uF bulk capacitor on the power rail. Keep SPI traces (C, D, Q, S) short and matched in length to minimize signal integrity issues at 10 MHz. Use a ground plane to reduce noise.
Ensure the write protect pin (W) is tied to VCC or GND as needed. If left floating, it may cause unintended write protection. Also, the HOLD pin (pin 7) must be tied high if not used, as a low level pauses communication and can cause bus conflicts.
The M95M01-DFMN6TP operates from 1.8V to 5.5V. Ensure the supply voltage is stable and within the specified range during write operations. Voltage dips below 1.8V can cause write failures or data corruption. Use a low-dropout regulator if needed.
Compliance Information
RoHS and halogen-free per STMicroelectronics product page. Not AEC-Q100 qualified; automotive-grade variant M95M01-DFMN6TP-A is available.
