Product details
Overview
CY15V108QN-40BFXIT from Infineon is an 8 Mb serial ferroelectric RAM (F-RAM) organized as 1024K × 8, operating at up to 40 MHz SPI clock, with 1.71–1.89 V supply, industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), and 10¹⁵ read/write endurance. It serves as a non-volatile memory replacement for EEPROM/flash in data-logging systems requiring instant write, zero latency, and high reliability.
For engineers reviewing the CY15V108QN-40BFXIT datasheet, CY15V108QN-40BFXIT pinout, CY15V108QN-40BFXIT application, or CY15V108QN-40BFXIT equivalent, this device delivers bus-speed writes without polling, 151-year data retention, hardware/software write protection, and SPI mode 0/3 compatibility - critical for real-time industrial control and edge sensor nodes.
Technical Context
The CY15V108QN-40BFXIT implements a true SPI slave interface with zero-write-latency F-RAM core, eliminating erase cycles and enabling immediate byte-level writes at full 40 MHz bus speed. Its internal architecture includes a dedicated 256-byte special sector surviving three reflow cycles, plus non-volatile Device ID and writable 8-byte serial number registers.
It supports dual write protection: hardware via active-low WP pin (when WPEN=1) and software via WRDI instruction and block-protection bits (BP0/BP1) for 1/4, 1/2, or full array lock. The status register is non-volatile and retains protection settings across power cycles.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory density | 8 Mb (1024K × 8 bits) - supports large-scale logging buffers without external memory expansion |
| SPI max frequency | 40 MHz - enables 4 MB/s sustained write throughput, matching microcontroller SPI peripheral limits |
| Data retention | 151 years at 85°C - eliminates periodic refresh or backup power requirements in sealed industrial enclosures |
| Endurance | 10¹⁵ read/write cycles - sustains >1000 writes/sec continuously for 31+ years without wear-out |
| Supply voltage | 1.71 V to 1.89 V - compatible with 1.8 V logic domains and low-power SoC interfaces |
| Operating temp | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for deployment in motor drives, PLC I/O modules, and outdoor metering |
| Deep power-down current | 0.90 µA (typ) - enables battery-backed operation for >10 years on a single CR2032 cell |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-pin SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit), RoHS-compliant, surface-mount, standard JEDEC MS-012AC footprint.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CS | Active-low chip select input | Enables SPI communication; HIGH places device in standby (3.5 µA), tristates SO |
| SCK | Serial clock input | Synchronizes all I/O; rising edge latches SI, falling edge drives SO; supports 0–40 MHz, interruptible |
| SI | Serial data input | Receives opcodes, addresses, and write data; must be driven to valid logic level to meet IDD specs |
| SO | Serial data output | Drives read data on falling SCK edge; tristated during all non-read operations |
| WP | Write protect input | Hardware lock for status register when WPEN=1; must tie to VDD if unused |
| VSS | Ground reference | System ground connection; required for stable internal bias and noise immunity |
| VDD | Power supply | 1.71–1.89 V input; powers core and I/O; decoupling capacitor mandatory per datasheet layout guidelines |
| DNU | Do-not-use terminal | No internal connection; must float or tie to VDD - not a no-connect for signal routing |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Instant non-volatile write | Zero latency - data committed immediately after byte transfer; no polling or timeout handling needed in firmware |
| Dedicated 256-byte special sector | Retains content through ≥3 reflow cycles - enables permanent board identification or calibration storage in final assembly |
| Multi-layer write protection | Hardware (WP pin) + software (WRDI, BP bits) + non-volatile status register - prevents accidental overwrites in field-deployed units |
| Unique device ID & serial number | Factory-programmed 64-bit ID + user-writable 8-byte serial register - supports secure device authentication and traceability |
| Ultra-low deep power-down | 0.90 µA typical - extends battery life in wireless sensor nodes where wake-up intervals exceed hours |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar non-volatile serial memory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CY15B108QN-40BFXIT | Wider VDD range (1.8–3.6 V); same density, timing, and F-RAM core | Supports mixed-voltage systems (e.g., 3.3 V MCU with 1.8 V peripherals) | Select when system rail flexibility outweighs strict 1.8 V optimization |
| FM25V05-G | Cypress (Infineon) 512 Kb F-RAM; 1.8–3.6 V; 40 MHz; SOIC-8 | Limited to smaller buffer sizes; lacks special sector and serial number registers | Choose only for cost-sensitive, low-capacity use cases where 8 Mb is unnecessary |
Compared with CY15B108QN-40BFXIT, the CY15V108QN-40BFXIT offers tighter voltage tolerance ideal for 1.8 V-only designs, while FM25V05-G trades capacity and advanced features for lower unit cost in sub-1 Mb applications.

FAQ
Is CY15V108QN-40BFXIT pin-compatible with standard SPI EEPROMs or flash devices?
Yes - it uses industry-standard 8-pin SOIC with identical CS/SCK/SI/SO/WP/VSS/VDD pin assignments and SPI mode 0/3 protocol. No PCB redesign is needed when replacing legacy serial EEPROMs like AT25DF041 or flash such as MX25L4005, though firmware must disable polling loops due to instant write behavior.
Does the 256-byte special sector require separate addressing or commands?
Yes - it is accessed using dedicated opcodes (0x77 for read, 0x76 for write) and occupies address range 0xFFFC00–0xFFFCFF. Unlike main array access, special sector reads/writes bypass status register protection and retain data across reflow, making it ideal for immutable board IDs or factory calibration data.
How does write protection behave during power loss or brownout conditions?
Hardware WP pin protection remains active as long as VDD > 1.5 V; software protection (WPEN, BP bits) is stored in non-volatile status register and survives power cycles. During brownout, the device halts writes automatically - no partial writes or corruption occurs due to F-RAM's intrinsic bit-level write atomicity.
Can the unique device ID be overwritten or disabled?
No - the 64-bit Device ID is factory-laser-programmed and read-only. It cannot be altered, erased, or disabled. The separate 8-byte serial number register is user-writable via opcode 0x1B but resides in standard F-RAM array and obeys normal write protection rules - it is not fused or one-time-programmable.
