Product details
Overview
R1EX25016ATA00I#S0 from Renesas Electronics is a 16-kbit SPI serial EEPROM (2048 × 8-bit) in an 8-pin TSSOP package, operating from 1.8 V to 5.5 V with 3 MHz max clock at 1.8 V and 5 MHz at ≥2.5 V, featuring 32-byte page write, 5 ms write cycle time, and industrial −40°C to +85°C temperature range - used for firmware parameter storage in embedded controllers.
For engineers reviewing the R1EX25016ATA00I#S0 datasheet, R1EX25016ATA00I#S0 pinout, R1EX25016ATA00I#S0 application, or R1EX25016ATA00I#S0 equivalent, key selection criteria include SPI mode 0/3 compatibility, hardware write protection via W and HOLD pins, 100-year data retention at 25°C, and 1,000k endurance cycles - critical for infrequently updated configuration memory in automotive and industrial systems.
Technical Context
This device implements a standard SPI interface with dual-mode support (CPOL=0, CPHA=0 and CPOL=1, CPHA=1), enabling interoperability with diverse microcontrollers. Its MONOS nonvolatile memory cell architecture delivers high reliability without requiring external high-voltage programming circuitry.
The internal 32-byte page buffer enables burst writes within a single page boundary, reducing total programming time versus byte-wise writes. Protection logic integrates both software (BP0/BP1 bits in status register) and hardware (W pin + SRWD bit) mechanisms to prevent unintended writes during power transitions or noise events.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory size | 16 kbit (2048 × 8-bit) - supports full device configuration storage for mid-complexity MCU-based modules. |
| Supply voltage | 1.8 V to 5.5 V - enables direct interfacing with 1.8 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V logic domains without level shifters. |
| Max clock frequency | 5 MHz (at ≥2.5 V), 3 MHz (at 1.8 V) - determines maximum read/write throughput; 5 MHz yields ~400 kbit/s effective read rate. |
| Write cycle time | 5 ms per page (32 bytes) - defines worst-case latency for persistent parameter updates; independent of VCC within rated range. |
| Data retention | 100 years at 25°C, 10 years at 85°C - ensures long-term validity of calibration data or security keys across product lifetime. |

Pinout & Package
Package: 8-pin plastic TSSOP (PTSP0008JC-B / TTP-8DAV), 3.0 mm × 4.4 mm body, 0.65 mm pitch, lead-free, tape-and-reel (3,000 pcs/reel).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC | Power supply input | Accepts 1.8–5.5 V; requires local 0.1 µF ceramic bypass capacitor to VSS for noise immunity. |
| VSS | Ground reference | Return path for all digital and internal memory operations; must be low-impedance connection. |
| S (Chip Select) | Device enable control | Active-low signal; falling edge initiates instruction decoding; high-Z output when deasserted. |
| C (Serial Clock) | SPI timing input | Drives internal state machine; rising edge latches D input, falling edge clocks Q output. |
| D (Data In) | Serial command/address/data input | Receives instruction opcodes (e.g., 0x02 for WRITE), 16-bit address, and up to 32 data bytes per page. |
| Q (Data Out) | Serial data output | Shifts out memory contents MSB-first on falling clock edge; tri-states when S or HOLD is high. |
| W (Write Protect) | Hardware lock control | Low level enables Hardware Protected Mode when SRWD=1, freezing BP0/BP1 and blocking WRSR execution. |
| HOLD | Communication pause | Halts ongoing SPI transfer without deselecting device; requires S=low and C=low for valid assertion. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 32-byte page write buffer | Reduces average write time by >90% vs. byte-wise programming - critical for fast factory calibration uploads. |
| Hardware + software write protection | Combines W pin and SRWD/BP0/BP1 bits to prevent corruption during brown-out, ESD, or firmware bugs. |
| MONOS memory technology | Enables 1.8 V operation and 100-year data retention without charge-pump circuitry - simplifies power design. |
| SPI mode 0 and 3 support | Ensures compatibility with ARM Cortex-M, Renesas RX, and legacy 8-bit MCUs without custom driver adaptation. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar serial EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AT25160B-SSHL-T (Microchip) | 16 kbit SPI EEPROM, same 8-pin TSSOP, but supports 20 MHz clock (5 V) and lacks HOLD pin. | No HOLD functionality limits use in systems requiring interruptible SPI transfers during real-time operation. | Select if higher speed is needed and HOLD is unused; verify absence of HOLD does not impact system-level timing robustness. |
| M95160-DFMN6TP/K (STMicroelectronics) | 16 kbit SPI EEPROM, 8-pin TSSOP, 20 MHz max (5 V), includes HOLD, but only guarantees 40-year data retention at 25°C. | Lower retention spec may require more frequent recalibration in long-lifetime infrastructure applications. | Prefer for cost-sensitive consumer designs; avoid where >50-year unattended operation is mandated (e.g., smart grid meters). |
Compared with AT25160B-SSHL-T and M95160-DFMN6TP/K, R1EX25016ATA00I#S0 provides superior long-term data integrity (100-year retention) and integrated HOLD functionality in a proven industrial-grade package - making it optimal for safety-critical or maintenance-free deployments.

FAQ
What is the maximum SPI clock frequency supported by R1EX25016ATA00I#S0?
R1EX25016ATA00I#S0 supports up to 5 MHz when VCC is 2.5 V to 5.5 V, and up to 3 MHz when VCC is 1.8 V to 5.5 V. These values are specified across the full operating temperature range (−40°C to +85°C) and reflect guaranteed timing margins - not typical or best-case performance. The device uses standard SPI modes 0 and 3, ensuring compatibility with most MCU SPI peripherals without protocol translation.
Does R1EX25016ATA00I#S0 include hardware write protection independent of software configuration?
Yes, R1EX25016ATA00I#S0 implements hardware write protection via the W (Write Protect) pin combined with the SRWD (Status Register Write Disable) bit. When SRWD = 1 and W is driven low, the device enters Hardware Protected Mode - freezing BP0/BP1 bits and rejecting all WRSR instructions. This protection remains active even if firmware attempts to modify protection settings, providing fail-safe defense against corruption during power transients or software faults.
How many write cycles can R1EX25016ATA00I#S0 endure at 85°C?
R1EX25016ATA00I#S0 is rated for a minimum of 100,000 write cycles at 85°C, as specified in the Memory Cell Characteristics table. This is one-tenth of its 25°C rating (1,000,000 cycles), reflecting accelerated wear at elevated temperature. The specification applies to the entire memory array and is validated per JEDEC standards - enabling reliable use in under-hood automotive or enclosed industrial enclosures where ambient temperatures approach the upper limit.
What is the function of the HOLD pin on R1EX25016ATA00I#S0?
The HOLD pin on R1EX25016ATA00I#S0 pauses ongoing SPI communication without deselecting the device or resetting internal state. When asserted (HOLD = low) while S = low and C = low, Q goes high-impedance and D/C become don't-care - allowing the host MCU to service interrupts or perform other tasks. Communication resumes on next valid clock edge after HOLD returns high. This avoids retransmission overhead in time-constrained systems.
Is R1EX25016ATA00I#S0 compatible with 1.8 V logic systems?
Yes, R1EX25016ATA00I#S0 operates fully at 1.8 V, including SPI communication (3 MHz max), read/write functionality, and all protection features. Input thresholds (VIH = VCC × 0.7, VIL = VCC × 0.3) and output drive strength (VOL ≤ 0.4 V at 1.5 mA) are specified down to 1.8 V. Its MONOS memory technology eliminates need for internal charge pumps - ensuring true single-supply 1.8 V operation without level shifters or auxiliary rails.
