Product details
Overview
M95640-DRDW3TP/K from STMicroelectronics is an AEC-Q100 Grade 0 automotive serial SPI EEPROM with 64 Kbit (8 Kbyte) capacity, 32-byte page size, and extended operation up to 145 °C at 2.5–5.5 V. It features embedded ECC for enhanced data integrity, a lockable 32-byte Identification Page, and supports 20 MHz clock at VCC ≥ 4.5 V. Used in engine control units for calibration storage under high-temperature conditions.
For engineers reviewing the M95640-DRDW3TP/K datasheet, M95640-DRDW3TP/K pinout, M95640-DRDW3TP/K application, or M95640-DRDW3TP/K equivalent, key selection criteria include write endurance at 145 °C (400 k cycles), block-level write protection (1/4, 1/2, or full memory), Schmitt-trigger noise immunity, and TSSOP8 package compatibility with automotive PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device implements a true EEPROM array organized as 256 × 32-byte pages, with dedicated logic for Error Correction Code (ECC) per 4-byte group to detect and correct single-bit errors during read operations. The Status Register (b7–b0) controls write enable (WEL), write-in-progress (WIP), block protection (BP1/BP0), and SRWD-based hardware/software write lock coordination.
It operates in two SPI modes: CPOL=0/CPHA=0 and CPOL=1/CPHA=1, with input sampling on rising C edge and output valid after falling C edge. Hold (HOLD) enables pause/resume of ongoing transfers without chip deselection, while Write Protect (W) and SRWD jointly govern Status Register programmability under voltage and temperature stress.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Size | 64 Kbit (8 Kbyte), organized as 256 pages × 32 bytes - enables efficient firmware patching and parameter logging in constrained automotive memory maps. |
| Max Clock Frequency | 20 MHz at VCC ≥ 4.5 V - supports fast boot-time configuration loading in ECUs without requiring external wait states. |
| Write Endurance | 400 k cycles at 145 °C - ensures reliable reprogramming over full vehicle lifetime in under-hood applications. |
| Data Retention | 50 years at 125 °C - guarantees calibration data integrity across 15+ year automotive service life without refresh. |
| Operating Voltage | 2.5 V to 5.5 V - compatible with 3.3 V and 5 V microcontroller I/O domains and withstands automotive load-dump transients. |
| Temperature Range | −40 °C to +145 °C - qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 0 for direct mounting on powertrain control modules. |

Pinout & Package
TSSOP8 (DW) package: 8-lead thin shrink small outline, 3 × 4.4 mm body, 0.65 mm pitch, RoHS-compliant and halogen-free (ECOPACK2®).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| S | Chip Select | Active-low enable signal; edge- and level-sensitive for protocol safety - prevents spurious writes during power-up or bus noise. |
| C | Serial Clock | Master-generated synchronous timing signal; rising edge latches input (D), falling edge outputs data (Q) - supports dual SPI modes (CPOL/CPHA). |
| D | Serial Data Input | Input for instructions, addresses, and write data; MSB-first, sampled on rising C edge - enables compact command framing with minimal overhead. |
| Q | Serial Data Output | Output for read data and status bits; MSB-first, valid after falling C edge - high-impedance when S is high or HOLD is active. |
| W | Write Protect | Hardware lock for Status Register; interacts with SRWD bit to freeze BP1/BP0 settings - prevents accidental memory protection changes in field operation. |
| HOLD | Hold Control | Active-low pause signal; suspends ongoing transfer without resetting internal state - allows MCU to service higher-priority interrupts mid-transaction. |
| VSS | Ground Reference | Common return path for all signals and VCC - requires low-inductance connection to minimize ground bounce in noisy automotive environments. |
| VCC | Supply Voltage | Core power input (2.5–5.5 V); supports wide-range operation across battery voltage fluctuations and cold-crank conditions. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Embedded ECC Logic | Corrects single-bit errors per 4-byte group - eliminates need for external error-handling firmware in safety-critical calibration storage. |
| Lockable Identification Page | 32-byte dedicated area with LID instruction - enables permanent storage of unique device IDs or cryptographic keys post-manufacturing. |
| Multi-Level Block Protection | Configurable via BP1/BP0 bits to protect 1/4, 1/2, or full memory - supports hierarchical security models for bootloader, application, and user data partitions. |
| Schmitt Trigger Inputs | On S, C, D, HOLD, W pins - rejects noise spikes up to 30% VCC, ensuring reliable operation in high-EMI engine compartments. |
| Fast Write Cycle | ≤4 ms for byte or page write - reduces firmware update time and minimizes window of vulnerability during reprogramming. |

FAQ
What is the function of the HOLD pin on the M95640-DRDW3TP/K?
The HOLD pin pauses ongoing SPI communication without deselecting the device or resetting internal state. When driven low while Serial Clock (C) is low, it places Q in high-impedance and ignores D and C transitions. This allows the host MCU to service urgent interrupts and resume the exact same transaction afterward - critical for deterministic timing in real-time automotive systems.
How does the Identification Page differ from the main memory array?
The Identification Page is a dedicated 32-byte area accessible only via RDID/WRID instructions. Unlike main memory, it supports the LID (Lock ID) command to permanently disable further writes, making it ideal for storing immutable device IDs or cryptographic keys. Its contents are retained independently and verified separately during AEC-Q100 stress testing.
Can the M95640-DRDW3TP/K be used in both CPOL=0/CPHA=0 and CPOL=1/CPHA=1 SPI modes?
Yes - the device fully supports both SPI modes. Input data is latched on the rising edge of C, and output data is valid after the falling edge in either mode. The only difference is idle clock polarity: C remains low in CPOL=0 mode and high in CPOL=1 mode. This dual-mode compatibility simplifies integration with diverse microcontroller families without hardware redesign.
What happens when the SRWD bit is set to 1 and the W pin is held low?
When SRWD = 1 and W = low, the Status Register becomes permanently locked: WRSR commands are discarded, and BP1/BP0 protection settings cannot be modified. The only recovery method is to drive W high. This hardware-enforced freeze prevents accidental or malicious alteration of memory protection boundaries - a key requirement for ISO 26262 ASIL-B/C systems.
