Product details
Overview
R1EX25016ATA00A from Renesas Electronics is a 16-kbit (2048 × 8-bit) Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) EEPROM with MONOS memory technology, operating from 1.8 V to 5.5 V, supporting up to 3 MHz clock at 1.8 V, and housed in an 8-pin TSSOP package. It delivers high reliability for nonvolatile data storage in space-constrained consumer electronics.
For engineers reviewing the R1EX25016ATA00A datasheet, R1EX25016ATA00A pinout, R1EX25016ATA00A application, or R1EX25016ATA00A equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, SPI timing behavior, page-write capability, hardware write protection, and real-world use cases in audio equipment, camcorders, and embedded controllers.
Technical Context
The R1EX25016ATA00A implements SPI Mode 0 (CPOL=0, CPHA=0) and Mode 3 (CPOL=1, CPHA=1), with dual-voltage AC timing: 5 MHz max at 2.5–5.5 V and 3 MHz max at 1.8–5.5 V. Its internal architecture includes a 32-byte page buffer, status register with BP1/BP0 block protection bits, and SRWD/W pin hardware-protected mode.
It uses MONOS (Metal-Oxide-Nitride-Oxide-Silicon) charge-trap technology for enhanced endurance (1,000k cycles @25°C) and data retention (100 years @25°C), and integrates low-voltage circuitry enabling full functionality down to 1.8 V while maintaining 3 µA standby current and fast 5–8 ms write cycle time.

Use Value: Hardware write protection (W + SRWD) prevents accidental or malicious overwrite of sensitive connectivity data. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar SPI EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AT25160B-SSHL-T (Microchip) | 16 kbit SPI EEPROM, 5 MHz max, SOIC-8 only; no HOLD pin; 100k cycles endurance | Lacks HOLD function and lower endurance limits use in high-write-count calibration logging | Select if board already uses SOIC-8 footprint and HOLD is unused; verify endurance margin for field recalibration frequency |
| M95160-DFMN6TP/K (STMicroelectronics) | 16 kbit SPI EEPROM, 20 MHz max, TSSOP-8; built-in write protection via WP pin; 400k cycles | Higher speed and same package, but reduced endurance and different status register mapping | Prefer for designs requiring faster configuration loads; confirm compatibility of WP logic and status bit definitions in firmware |
Compared with AT25160B-SSHL-T and M95160-DFMN6TP/K, the R1EX25016ATA00A offers superior endurance (1,000k vs. ≤400k cycles), integrated HOLD functionality, and MONOS-based data retention stability-making it optimal for long-lifecycle consumer devices where firmware updates and user customization occur infrequently but must persist reliably.

FAQ
What is the maximum SPI clock frequency supported by the R1EX25016ATA00A at 1.8 V?
The R1EX25016ATA00A supports a maximum SPI clock frequency of 3 MHz when operating at 1.8 V to 5.5 V. This is specified in the AC Characteristics table under "Clock frequency" for the 1.8 V to 5.5 V condition. At higher voltages (2.5 V to 5.5 V), it supports up to 5 MHz. The R1EX25016ATA00A's dual-speed specification ensures compatibility across both low-power and performance-oriented designs.
Does the R1EX25016ATA00A support hardware write protection independent of software configuration?
Yes, the R1EX25016ATA00A supports hardware write protection via the W (Write Protect) pin in conjunction with the SRWD (Status Register Write Disable) bit. When SRWD = 1 and W is driven low, the device enters Hardware Protected Mode, locking BP1/BP0 and SRWD bits against modification-even if WREN and WRSR commands are issued. This feature is explicitly defined in the Functional Description section of the R1EX25016ATA00A datasheet.
What is the page size and write cycle time for the R1EX25016ATA00A?
The R1EX25016ATA00A has a fixed 32-byte page size and supports automatic page programming. Its write cycle time is 5 ms minimum at VCC ≥ 2.5 V and 8 ms minimum at VCC ≥ 1.8 V. These values are guaranteed across the full operating temperature range (−40°C to +85°C) and directly impact bulk write efficiency-enabling up to 32 bytes to be written in a single self-timed operation. This behavior is confirmed in the Features and AC Characteristics sections of the R1EX25016ATA00A documentation.
Can the R1EX25016ATA00A be used in automotive applications?
Renesas explicitly states that the R1EX25016ATA00A is authorized for consumer applications such as cellular phones, camcorders, and audio equipment-and requires prior consultation with Renesas sales before use in automotive systems, embedded controllers, or meters. While its −40°C to +85°C rating meets extended temperature requirements, formal qualification for automotive AEC-Q100 or functional safety standards is not documented for the R1EX25016ATA00A.
What package type and dimensions does the R1EX25016ATA00A use?
The R1EX25016ATA00A uses an 8-pin plastic TSSOP package designated PTSP0008JC-B (also labeled TTP-8DAV), with a body size of 3.0 mm × 4.4 mm and 0.65 mm lead pitch. This is confirmed in the Ordering Information table and Pin Arrangement diagram of the R1EX25016ATA00A datasheet (REJ03C0385-0100 Rev.1.00). It is lead-free and compatible with standard reflow soldering processes.
