Product details
Overview
M95512-DRMN8TP/K from STMicroelectronics is a 512-Kbit (64 Kbytes) serial SPI EEPROM with 128-byte page size, rated for operation up to 105 °C and supply voltage range 1.7–5.5 V, featuring embedded ECC logic for enhanced data integrity in automotive and industrial control memory logging.
For engineers reviewing the M95512-DRMN8TP/K datasheet, M95512-DRMN8TP/K pinout, M95512-DRMN8TP/K application, or M95512-DRMN8TP/K equivalent, key selection criteria include write endurance at elevated temperature, block-level hardware write protection, identification page lockability, and SPI mode compatibility (CPOL=0/1, CPHA=0/1).
Technical Context
This device implements a true EEPROM array organized as 512 pages × 128 bytes (65,536 × 8 bits), with dedicated Identification Page (128 bytes) supporting permanent lock via LID instruction. It uses Schmitt-trigger inputs for noise immunity and supports two standard SPI modes: CPOL=0/CPHA=0 and CPOL=1/CPHA=1.
Protocol control relies on edge- and level-sensitive Chip Select (S), Write Enable Latch (WEL) state validation, and byte-aligned command framing. Data protection combines non-volatile Block Protect (BP1/BP0) bits, Status Register Write Disable (SRWD) bit, and physical W pin coordination to enforce configurable memory locking.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
Package: TSSOP8 (DW), 169 mil width, RoHS-compliant and halogen-free (ECOPACK2®).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| S | Chip Select | Active-low enable; edge- and level-sensitive - prevents spurious commands during power-up or noise events. |
| C | Serial Clock | Input synchronizing all SPI transfers; supports CPOL/CPHA modes - defines timing reference for D input sampling and Q output transitions. |
| D | Serial Data Input | Input for instructions, addresses, and write data; latched on rising C edge - carries command stream and payload in single-wire half-duplex mode. |
| Q | Serial Data Output | Output for read data and status; driven on falling C edge - provides deterministic output timing aligned to clock fall. |
| W | Write Protect | Hardware control for Status Register write lock when SRWD = 1 - enables tamper-resistant configuration lockdown. |
| HOLD | Hold | Pauses ongoing SPI transfer without deselecting device - preserves internal state during host interrupt servicing. |
| VSS | Ground | Signal and supply reference plane - must be low-impedance to maintain noise margin for Schmitt-trigger inputs. |
| VCC | Supply Voltage | Power input (1.7–5.5 V); powers internal charge pump for EEPROM programming - enables wide-voltage system integration. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar serial SPI EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AT25DF512C-SSH-T | 512 Kbit SPI Flash (not EEPROM); no built-in ECC; lacks Identification Page and lockable ID feature. | Requires external ECC implementation; unsuitable for secure calibration storage where immutable ID binding is required. | Select only if cost sensitivity outweighs data integrity assurance and long-term retention at 105 °C. |
| BR24G512FJ-WE2 | 512 Kbit I²C EEPROM; max temp 105 °C; no HOLD pin; no Identification Page; lower write endurance (1M @ 85 °C). | Requires I²C bus allocation and arbitration; incompatible with SPI-only hosts; insufficient endurance for high-cycle logging at full spec temp. | Choose only for space-constrained designs where I²C is already dominant and write frequency is <100×/day. |
Compared with AT25DF512C-SSH-T and BR24G512FJ-WE2, M95512-DRMN8TP/K uniquely delivers SPI-native EEPROM reliability with integrated ECC, lockable ID page, and guaranteed 900k write cycles at 105 °C - making it the sole option for AEC-Q100 Grade 2 systems requiring both security and endurance.

FAQ
What is the function of the HOLD pin on M95512-DRMN8TP/K?
The HOLD pin pauses active SPI communication without deselecting the device or resetting internal state. When asserted low while Serial Clock (C) is low, it places Serial Data Output (Q) in high-impedance and ignores D and C transitions. This allows the host MCU to service interrupts or perform other tasks while preserving the exact point in the current command sequence, resuming seamlessly upon deassertion.
How does the Identification Page differ from main memory?
The Identification Page is a dedicated 128-byte region separate from the 512-Kbit main array. Its first three bytes contain ST's fixed device ID (0x20, 0x14, 0x00), while remaining bytes are user-programmable. Unlike main memory, it supports the LID (Lock Identification) instruction to permanently disable writes - turning it into a tamper-proof zone for serial numbers, calibration signatures, or cryptographic keys.
Can M95512-DRMN8TP/K operate reliably at 1.7 V and 105 °C simultaneously?
Yes. The datasheet explicitly specifies 5 MHz max SPI clock, 900 k write cycles, and >50 years data retention at 1.7 V and 105 °C. These parameters are measured and guaranteed under combined stress conditions - not extrapolated - and validated per AEC-Q100 Grade 2 requirements for continuous operation in automotive under-hood environments.
What protection mechanisms prevent accidental writes to protected memory blocks?
Accidental writes are prevented by a dual-layer scheme: (1) non-volatile BP1/BP0 bits in the Status Register define protected address ranges (none, upper quarter, upper half, or full memory + ID page); (2) SRWD bit + W pin state determine whether the Status Register itself can be modified. If SRWD=1 and W=low, BP bits become frozen - blocking any change to protection scope until W is pulled high.
