Product details
Overview
AT25160B-MAPDGV-T from Microchip Technology is a 16 Kbit (2,048 × 8) SPI serial EEPROM optimized for automotive-grade nonvolatile data storage. It operates across 1.7V–5.5V supply range, supports 5 MHz clock rate at 5V, features 32-byte page write mode, and delivers AEC-Q100 Grade 3 qualification (−40°C to +85°C). It serves as system configuration memory in engine control units and ADAS sensor modules.
For engineers reviewing the AT25160B-MAPDGV-T datasheet, AT25160B-MAPDGV-T pinout, AT25160B-MAPDGV-T application, or AT25160B-MAPDGV-T equivalent, key selection criteria include SPI Mode 0/3 compatibility, hardware/software write protection via WP/HOLD pins, block-level array protection (1/4, 1/2, or full), self-timed ≤5 ms write cycle, and 1,000,000 write endurance with 100-year data retention.
Technical Context
The AT25160B-MAPDGV-T implements a synchronous SPI slave interface with fixed MSb-first data framing and dual-mode SCK polarity support (Mode 0 idle-low, Mode 3 idle-high). Its internal architecture includes a STATUS register with nonvolatile BP1/BP0 bits for configurable block protection and a volatile WEL bit controlling write enable state.
It integrates a high-voltage generation circuit for EEPROM cell programming, power-on reset (POR) logic ensuring stable initialization after VCC monotonic ramp ≥0.1 V/µs, and independent HOLD/CS-controlled suspend functionality that pauses serial transfers without affecting ongoing internal write cycles.

Pinout & Package
AT25160B-MAPDGV-T is housed in an 8-lead SOIC package with standard JEDEC MS-012AC dimensions (3.9 mm × 4.9 mm × 1.75 mm height). Pin 1 is marked by a beveled corner or dot; the package is RoHS-compliant, halide-free, and lead-free.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CS (Pin 1) | Chip Select | Active-low enable signal; must transition low before SCK to initiate SPI command sequence; requires pull-up resistor (≤10 kΩ) tied to VCC for robust power-up behavior. |
| SO (Pin 2) | Serial Data Output | Tri-state output delivering MSb-first data on falling edge of SCK; enters high-impedance state when CS is high or HOLD is asserted. |
| WP (Pin 3) | Write-Protect | Hardware lock for STATUS register writes when WPEN=1; functional only if WPEN bit is set; allows software-only protection when WPEN=0 and WP grounded. |
| GND (Pin 4) | Ground Reference | Primary return path for VCC current and digital I/O; must be connected to system ground plane with low-inductance routing. |
| SI (Pin 5) | Serial Data Input | Accepts MSb-first opcodes, addresses, and data on rising edge of SCK; ignored during HOLD or when CS is high. |
| SCK (Pin 6) | Serial Clock Input | Master-generated clock synchronizing all SPI transfers; supports Mode 0 (idle low) and Mode 3 (idle high); rise/fall times ≤2000 ns. |
| HOLD (Pin 7) | Suspend Control | Pauses ongoing SPI transfer (not internal write) when pulled low during SCK low; resumes on HOLD high during next SCK low; retains command context. |
| VCC (Pin 8) | Power Supply | Single-supply input (1.7V–5.5V); requires local 0.1 µF ceramic decoupling capacitor placed within 5 mm of pin. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar serial EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| M95160-DRMN3TP/K | 16 Kbit SPI EEPROM, same 8-lead SOIC, but rated for industrial −40°C to +85°C (non-AEC-Q100); max clock 20 MHz at 5V. | Lacks automotive qualification; not suitable for production ECU or ADAS deployments requiring AEC-Q100 documentation. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs automotive compliance needs and higher speed (20 MHz) is required. |
| BR24G16FJ-3GE2 | 16 Kbit I²C EEPROM in 8-lead TSSOP; supports 1 MHz I²C bus, 1.7V–5.5V, AEC-Q100 Grade 3 qualified. | I²C interface requires different MCU peripheral and driver stack; no HOLD/CS suspend function; slower than SPI at equivalent voltage. | Choose for designs already using I²C infrastructure or where pin count constraints favor two-wire interface over four-wire SPI. |
Compared with M95160-DRMN3TP/K, AT25160B-MAPDGV-T provides mandatory AEC-Q100 evidence for automotive release, while BR24G16FJ-3GE2 trades SPI performance for I²C simplicity and shared-bus scalability-neither offers pin-to-pin replacement, requiring PCB layout and firmware changes.

FAQ
What is the operating voltage range for the AT25160B-MAPDGV-T?
The AT25160B-MAPDGV-T operates from 1.7V to 5.5V, supporting both low-voltage (1.7V–2.5V) and medium-voltage (2.5V–5.5V) systems. This wide range allows direct connection to 1.8V, 3.3V, and 5V microcontrollers without level shifters. The device maintains full functionality-including 5 MHz operation at 5V and 32-byte page writes-across the entire range, with standby current as low as 0.1 µA at 1.7V.
Does the AT25160B-MAPDGV-T support SPI Mode 3, and how is it configured?
Yes, the AT25160B-MAPDGV-T supports both SPI Mode 0 (SCK idle low) and Mode 3 (SCK idle high). No configuration is required-the device automatically adapts based on the SCK polarity during CS assertion. In Mode 3, the master must hold SCK high while CS is deasserted, and the first data bit is sampled on the first rising edge after CS goes low. The datasheet confirms identical timing for data latching (rising edge) and output (falling edge) in both modes.
How does the HOLD pin function during an active write cycle in the AT25160B-MAPDGV-T?
The HOLD pin has no effect on an ongoing internal write cycle in the AT25160B-MAPDGV-T. It only suspends serial communication (SI/SO/SCK interaction) while CS remains low. If a WRITE command has already triggered the self-timed ≤5 ms internal programming, asserting HOLD will pause further SPI commands but will not interrupt or delay the write completion. The device exits HOLD and resumes normal operation once HOLD is deasserted during an SCK low period.
What write protection mechanisms are implemented in the AT25160B-MAPDGV-T?
The AT25160B-MAPDGV-T implements dual-layer write protection: hardware via the WP pin (active-low, conditional on WPEN bit) and software via BP1/BP0 bits in the STATUS register. When WPEN=1, pulling WP low blocks STATUS register writes; when WPEN=0, WP is ignored. BP1/BP0 independently configure 1/4, 1/2, or full array protection regardless of WP state. Both mechanisms coexist, enabling flexible security policies-for example, locking calibration sectors permanently while leaving user settings writable.
Is the AT25160B-MAPDGV-T pin-compatible with other members of the AT25xxxB family?
Yes, the AT25160B-MAPDGV-T shares identical pinout, package (8-lead SOIC), and SPI interface behavior with AT25080B, AT25320B, and AT25640B variants. All use the same CS/SO/WP/GND/SI/SCK/HOLD/VCC arrangement and support identical opcodes, timing, and STATUS register structure. Memory size differences (8/16/32/64 Kbit) do not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility-PCB layouts designed for one can accommodate others with only firmware address-space updates.
