Product details
Overview
M30162040054X0PSAR from Renesas is a 16Mbit serial STT-MRAM non-volatile memory IC with Quad SPI (QSPI) interface, 54MHz DDR timing, industrial-plus temperature range (−40°C to +105°C), and 8-pin SOIC package. It delivers SRAM-compatible read/write performance with true non-volatility, enabling persistent data storage in real-time control systems requiring zero write latency and infinite endurance.
For engineers reviewing the M30162040054X0PSAR datasheet, M30162040054X0PSAR pinout, M30162040054X0PSAR application, or M30162040054X0PSAR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1.71–2.0V/2.7–3.6V dual-voltage support, hardware/software write protection (WP# pin + configuration registers), 256-byte augmented storage array, JEDEC reset compliance, and QPI (4-4-4) mode for high-throughput memory access.
Technical Context
The M30162040054X0PSAR implements spin-transfer torque magnetoresistive RAM (STT-MRAM) on 40nm pMTJ technology, delivering persistent SRAM-equivalent operation without refresh cycles or wear leveling. Its architecture supports Execute-In-Place (XIP), reducing command overhead during sequential reads/writes.
It operates in Single Data Rate (SDR) and Double Data Rate (DDR) SPI modes - with DDR enabled at 54MHz using both clock edges - and supports full QPI (4-4-4) instruction/address/data transfer. Power management includes Deep Power Down (3µs entry, 400µs exit) and Hibernate (3µs entry, 450µs exit) states, preserving data and configuration while drawing minimal current.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cypress Semiconductors FM25V10-G | 1 Mbit F-RAM; 40 MHz SPI max; single 3.3V supply only; no QPI or DDR mode | Limited density and interface bandwidth; suitable for low-throughput parameter storage but not high-speed logging | Select only when 1 Mbit capacity and 3.3V-only operation suffice; avoid for 16 Mbit or mixed-voltage designs |
| Infineon Technologies CY14B108N-ZSP25XI | 8 Mbit nvSRAM; parallel interface (32-bit); 25 ns access; requires external backup capacitor | Higher latency than MRAM for random writes; capacitor dependency adds board area and lifetime uncertainty | Consider only for legacy parallel-bus systems where SPI is unavailable; not drop-in compatible with M30162040054X0PSAR |
Compared with FM25V10-G and CY14B108N-ZSP25XI, the M30162040054X0PSAR offers 16× higher density than the F-RAM, supports QPI/DDR for 4× faster throughput than standard SPI, and eliminates backup capacitors required by nvSRAM - making it optimal for next-generation industrial and medical devices demanding scalability, speed, and maintenance-free reliability.

FAQ
What is the operating voltage range supported by the M30162040054X0PSAR?
The M30162040054X0PSAR supports two independent supply ranges: 1.71 V to 2.00 V and 2.70 V to 3.60 V. This dual-voltage capability allows direct integration into both 1.8 V and 3.3 V system designs without level-shifting circuitry. The device automatically adapts to the applied VCC and meets all AC/DC specifications across the full range within its specified industrial-plus temperature grade.
Does the M30162040054X0PSAR support Quad Peripheral Interface (QPI) mode?
Yes, the M30162040054X0PSAR fully supports QPI (4-4-4) mode, where command, address, and data are each transferred simultaneously across four I/O lines (IO[3:0]). This mode enables maximum throughput and is distinct from standard SPI or Dual SPI. QPI activation requires issuing the appropriate instruction sequence per the datasheet; the M30162040054X0PSAR maintains full backward compatibility with legacy SPI hosts.
How does the augmented storage array in the M30162040054X0PSAR differ from the main memory array?
The M30162040054X0PSAR includes a dedicated 256-byte augmented storage array, physically separate from the 16 Mbit main memory. It is divided into eight 32-byte sections, each independently programmable and write-protectable via configuration bits. Unlike the main array, this region is optimized for storing infrequently updated identifiers, calibration data, or secure keys - offering enhanced protection granularity without consuming main memory bandwidth.
What power-saving modes are available on the M30162040054X0PSAR, and how quickly can it resume operation?
The M30162040054X0PSAR provides two low-power states: Deep Power Down (IDPD) and Hibernate (IHBN). Both preserve all memory contents and register configurations. Entry time is ≤3 µs for either mode; exit times are ≤400 µs for Deep Power Down and ≤450 µs for Hibernate. These modes reduce standby current to microamp levels while maintaining full data integrity - ideal for battery-powered or energy-conscious industrial gateways.
Is the M30162040054X0PSAR pin-compatible with other members of the Mxxxx204 family?
Yes, the M30162040054X0PSAR shares identical 8-pin SOIC pinout and signal mapping with all Mxxxx204 variants, including M1004204, M3008204, and M1016204. This enables footprint reuse across densities (4/8/16 Mbit) and speed grades (54/108 MHz), simplifying design scalability and inventory consolidation. Voltage range and temperature grade are encoded in the suffix, not the pinout.
