Product details
Overview
CY14ME064Q1B from Infineon Technologies (formerly Cypress) is a 64-Kbit (8K × 8) SPI nonvolatile SRAM with integrated QuantumTrap nonvolatile storage, designed for fail-safe data retention in power-loss scenarios. It operates at 4.5–5.5 V, supports 40-MHz SPI interface (modes 0 and 3), delivers zero-cycle-delay reads/writes, and enables automatic STORE on power-down via external VCAP capacitor. Used in industrial PLCs, metering systems, and real-time control units where deterministic data persistence is critical.
For engineers reviewing the CY14ME064Q1B datasheet, CY14ME064Q1B pinout, CY14ME064Q1B application, or CY14ME064Q1B equivalent, key selection considerations include AutoStore capacitor sizing, WP pin hardware write protection, SPI mode compatibility, VCC voltage range compliance, and 20-year data retention at 85 °C.
Technical Context
The CY14ME064Q1B integrates an 8K × 8 SRAM array with per-cell QuantumTrap nonvolatile elements based on SONOS technology, enabling infinite SRAM read/write cycles while guaranteeing 1 million STORE cycles and 20-year data retention at 85 °C. Its SPI slave interface supports full-duplex communication at up to 40 MHz with zero cycle delay for standard READ/WRITE operations.
STORE and RECALL are implemented as atomic operations: AutoStore triggers on VCC drop below VSWITCH using energy stored in the VCAP capacitor, while Software STORE/RECALL are initiated via dedicated SPI opcodes (0x7C/0x77). The device uses a status register (RDSR/WRSR) with RDY bit to indicate busy state during nonvolatile transfers, and supports hardware (WP pin) and software (WRDI, BP0/BP1 bits) write protection.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory size | 64 Kbit (8K × 8), directly addressable SRAM array with concurrent nonvolatile backup |
| Supply voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - mandates compatible 5-V system rail; excludes 3.3-V logic domains without level shifting |
| SPI clock rate | Up to 40 MHz - enables sub-250 ns per byte transfer; zero-cycle-delay timing eliminates wait states |
| Data retention | 20 years at 85 °C - validated endurance for industrial temperature-class deployments |
| STORE endurance | 1 million cycles to QuantumTrap - defines maximum safe power-loss events over product lifetime |
| Standby current | 120 µA - sets baseline power budget for low-duty-cycle monitoring applications |
| Sleep current | 8 µA - enables ultra-low-power suspend states during extended idle periods |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-pin SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit), RoHS-compliant, industrial temperature grade (–40 °C to +85 °C).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CS | Chip Select input | Active-low enable; high state forces device into 120 µA standby mode - used for bus arbitration and power gating |
| SCK | Serial clock input | Edge-triggered SPI clock (rising edge latches SI, falling edge drives SO); max 40 MHz - defines interface bandwidth ceiling |
| SI | Serial input | Accepts all SPI opcodes (READ, WRITE, STORE, RECALL, WRSR, etc.) and address/data - sole command ingestion path |
| SO | Serial output | Drives read data, status register contents, serial number, and device ID - open-drain capable for wired-OR bus sharing |
| WP | Hardware write protect input | Low-active pin that locks entire memory array against accidental writes - requires external pull-up for default-enable operation |
| HOLD | Communication suspend input | Pauses ongoing SPI transaction without resetting internal state - enables priority interrupt handling in host MCU |
| VCAP | AutoStore capacitor connection | Connects external capacitor (typ. 4.7–10 µF) to sustain STORE during VCC collapse - must not be grounded or left floating |
| VSS | Ground reference | Signal and power return path; decoupling capacitor required between VCC and VSS near package |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AutoStore on power-down | Guarantees data persistence without host intervention when VCC drops below VSWITCH, using energy from external VCAP capacitor |
| Software STORE/RECALL | Enables deterministic, host-controlled nonvolatile transfers via SPI opcodes 0x7C and 0x77 - critical for scheduled save points |
| Hardware write protection (WP) | Physically disables all write operations including STORE/RECALL when WP = LOW - prevents corruption during firmware updates |
| Block protection (BP0/BP1) | Configurable 1/4, 1/2, or full-array lock via status register - isolates configuration sectors from runtime code writes |
| 8-byte unique serial number | Factory-programmed, read-only identifier (RDSN instruction) - supports device traceability and license binding |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar nonvolatile serial memory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| FM25V05-G | F-RAM-based; 512-Kbit density; 3.0–3.6 V supply; no VCAP or AutoStore required | Battery-free operation; lower write energy; unsuitable for 5-V systems without level shifters | Select when system operates at 3.3 V and requires unlimited write endurance without power-loss circuitry |
| AT25DF041A-SSH-T | Serial NOR Flash; 4-Mbit density; 2.7–3.6 V; page-program and sector-erase architecture | Requires explicit erase-before-write; 100K program/erase cycles; no automatic power-loss capture | Select when code storage dominates and infrequent parameter updates justify erase latency and endurance limits |
Compared with FM25V05-G and AT25DF041A-SSH-T, CY14ME064Q1B uniquely combines 5-V operation, hardware AutoStore with VCAP, and true SRAM-like zero-latency access - making it optimal for real-time systems requiring guaranteed power-loss data capture without host CPU involvement.

FAQ
What is the minimum VCAP capacitance required for reliable AutoStore operation?
The CY14ME064Q1B datasheet specifies a minimum VCAP value of 4.7 µF for guaranteed AutoStore functionality across the full industrial temperature range and worst-case VCC dropout profile. A 10 µF X7R ceramic capacitor is recommended to accommodate aging, tolerance, and ESR effects. VCAP must be placed within 5 mm of the VCAP pin and referenced to VSS with low-inductance layout.
Can CY14ME064Q1B operate in SPI mode 1 or mode 2?
No. CY14ME064Q1B only supports SPI modes 0 (CPOL = 0, CPHA = 0) and 3 (CPOL = 1, CPHA = 1), as confirmed in the Functional Description and AC Switching Characteristics sections of the official datasheet. Attempting mode 1 or 2 will result in misaligned sampling and corrupted data transfers due to incompatible clock phase/polarity timing.
How does hardware write protection via the WP pin interact with software write disable (WRDI)?
WP pin assertion (LOW) takes precedence over all software controls: it globally inhibits WRITE, STORE, WRSR, and other modifying instructions regardless of WRDI status or BP bits. WRDI only blocks writes when WP is HIGH; once WP goes LOW, WRDI becomes irrelevant until WP returns HIGH. This hierarchy ensures fail-safe protection during power transitions or firmware faults.
Is the 8-byte serial number factory-programmed and permanently locked?
Yes. The 8-byte serial number is laser-trimmed during final test and stored in one-time-programmable (OTP) memory. It is readable via RDSN instruction but cannot be altered, erased, or reprogrammed in-system or at any point in the device's lifecycle - providing immutable device identity for traceability and anti-counterfeiting.
