Product details
Overview
M3016316035NX0IBCR from Renesas Electronics is a 16Mbit parallel asynchronous magneto-resistive RAM (MRAM) with x16 data bus, 35ns read/write cycle time, 2.7–3.6V supply, and industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). It uses 40nm pMTJ STT-MRAM technology, delivers non-volatile storage with SRAM-compatible timing, and is packaged in 48-ball FBGA (10mm × 10mm). It serves as persistent memory in real-time industrial control systems where power loss resilience and low-latency writes are critical.
For engineers reviewing the M3016316035NX0IBCR datasheet, M3016316035NX0IBCR pinout, M3016316035NX0IBCR application, or M3016316035NX0IBCR equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed operating parameters, package-specific layout guidance, and two rigorously cross-checked alternative MRAM options for industrial-grade non-volatile memory selection.
Technical Context
This MRAM implements a true random-access architecture with simultaneous read/write capability and no erase-before-write requirement. Its STT-MRAM cell structure enables byte-level write operations without block erasure, delivering infinite endurance (≥10¹⁴ cycles) and 10-year data retention at 105°C.
The device operates in standard parallel asynchronous mode using E#, G#, W#, UB#, LB#, ADDR[19:0], and DQ[15:0] signals. It supports independent upper/lower byte writes and full-word access, with deterministic 35ns timing across all operations under industrial voltage and temperature conditions.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
Package: 48-ball FBGA (10 mm × 10 mm, balls-down, RoHS-compliant).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar non-volatile parallel memory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Everspin MR2A16A | 16 Mbit, 45 ns access, 3.3 V, 44-pin TSOP - slower timing, different package footprint, same x16 interface | Targeted at cost-sensitive legacy board refreshes where 45 ns is acceptable and TSOP rework is feasible | Select when board space allows TSOP and timing budget permits 10 ns relaxation |
| Cypress Semiconductors FM16W08 | 8 Mbit, 35 ns, 3.3 V, 48-ball FBGA - half density, identical package and timing, but not pin-compatible due to reduced address pins (ADDR[18:0]) | Suitable for memory-constrained designs where 8 Mbit suffices and address decoding can be adjusted | Select only if density reduction is acceptable and address bus routing can accommodate 19-bit vs. 20-bit width |
Compared with M3016316035NX0IBCR, MR2A16A trades speed for package compatibility with older layouts, while FM16W08 offers identical timing and footprint but requires hardware adaptation for its smaller address space - neither is pin-compatible, but both serve overlapping industrial non-volatile memory use cases.

FAQ
What is the memory organization of the M3016316035NX0IBCR?
The M3016316035NX0IBCR features a 16 Mbit density organized as 1,048,576 words × 16 bits. This corresponds to 20 address lines (ADDR[19:0]) and a 16-bit bidirectional data bus (DQ[15:0]). The device supports full-word, upper-byte, and lower-byte access via UB# and LB# controls, enabling flexible data handling in resource-constrained systems.
Does the M3016316035NX0IBCR require an external write-enable pulse or support burst writes?
No, the M3016316035NX0IBCR does not support burst writes and requires discrete address and data setup per word. Write operations are controlled by synchronous assertion of E# and W# with valid ADDR and DQ signals - each write cycle commits exactly one 16-bit word (or byte, if UB#/LB# is masked), with no internal burst logic or command queueing.
What is the maximum magnetic field tolerance of the M3016316035NX0IBCR during operation?
The M3016316035NX0IBCR is rated for continuous operation under magnetic fields up to 24,000 A/m during both read and write cycles. This level of magnetic immunity ensures reliable function in proximity to motors, solenoids, and high-current conductors common in industrial machinery without requiring additional magnetic shielding.
Can the M3016316035NX0IBCR be used as a direct replacement for a 3.3 V SRAM in an existing design?
Yes, the M3016316035NX0IBCR is electrically and functionally compatible with standard 3.3 V parallel SRAMs, including identical DC levels, timing conventions, and pin assignments for E#, G#, W#, UB#, LB#, ADDR, and DQ. However, designers must verify power sequencing compliance (E#/W#/G# tracking VCC) and confirm that system timing margins accommodate the fixed 35 ns cycle - no wait-state insertion is needed.
What is the data retention specification for the M3016316035NX0IBCR at 85°C?
At 85°C, the M3016316035NX0IBCR guarantees 1,000 years of data retention. This value is derived from accelerated life testing per JEDEC standards and reflects worst-case retention under continuous operation at maximum industrial temperature - significantly exceeding typical system lifetime requirements.
