The FM25V01 is a 128-Kbit nonvolatile memory employing an
advanced ferroelectric process. A ferroelectric random access
memory or F-RAM is nonvolatile and performs reads and writes
similar to a RAM. It provides reliable data retention for 151 years
while eliminating the complexities, overhead, and system-level
reliability problems caused by serial flash, EEPROM, and other
nonvolatile memories.
■
Very fast serial peripheral interface (SPI)
❐ Up to 40-MHz frequency
❐ Direct hardware replacement for serial flash and EEPROM
❐ Supports SPI mode 0 (0, 0) and mode 3 (1, 1)
■
Sophisticated write protection scheme
❐ Hardware protection using the Write Protect (WP) pin
❐ Software protection using Write Disable instruction
❐ Software block protection for 1/4, 1/2, or entire array
Unlike serial flash and EEPROM, the FM25V01 performs write
operations at bus speed. No write delays are incurred. Data is
written to the memory array immediately after each byte is
successfully transferred to the device. The next bus cycle can
commence without the need for data polling. In addition, the
product offers substantial write endurance compared with other
nonvolatile memories. The FM25V01 is capable of supporting
1014 read/write cycles, or 100 million times more write cycles
than EEPROM.

These capabilities make the FM25V01 ideal for nonvolatile
memory applications, requiring frequent or rapid writes.
Examples range from data collection, where the number of write
cycles may be critical, to demanding industrial controls where the
long write time of serial flash or EEPROM can cause data loss.
The FM25V01 provides substantial benefits to users of serial
EEPROM or flash as a hardware drop-in replacement. The
FM25V01 uses the high-speed SPI bus, which enhances the
high-speed write capability of F-RAM technology. The device
incorporates a read-only Device ID that allows the host to

I/O Type
Description
CS
Input
Chip Select. This active LOW input activates the device. When HIGH, the device enters low-power
standby mode, ignores other inputs, and the output is tristated. When LOW, the device internally
activates the SCK signal. A falling edge on CS must occur before every opcode.
SCK
Input
Serial Clock. All I/O activity is synchronized to the serial clock. Inputs are latched on the rising edge
and outputs occur on the falling edge. Because the device is synchronous, the clock frequency may
be any value between 0 and 40 MHz and may be interrupted at any time.
SI [1]
Input
Serial Input. All data is input to the device on this pin. The pin is sampled on the rising edge of SCK
and is ignored at other times. It should always be driven to a valid logic level to meet IDD specifications.
SO [1]
Output
Serial Output. This is the data output pin. It is driven during a read and remains tristated at all other
times including when HOLD is LOW. Data transitions are driven on the falling edge of the serial clock.
WP
Input
Write Protect. This Active LOW pin prevents write operation to the Status Register when WPEN is
set to ‘1’. This is critical because other write protection features are controlled through the Status
Register. A complete explanation of write protection is provided in Status Register and Write Protection
on page 7. This pin must be tied to VDD if not used.
HOLD
Input
HOLD Pin. The HOLD pin is used when the host CPU must interrupt a memory operation for another
task. When HOLD is LOW, the current operation is suspended. The device ignores any transition on
SCK or CS. All transitions on HOLD must occur while SCK is LOW. This pin has a weak internal pull-up
(Refer DC Electrical Characteristics table for RIN spec). However, if it is not used, the HOLD pin should
be tied to VDD.
VSS
Power supply Ground for the device. Must be connected to the ground of the system.

FM25V01
Overview
The FM25V01 is a serial F-RAM memory. The memory array is
logically organized as 16,384 × 8 bits and is accessed using an
industry-standard serial peripheral interface (SPI) bus. The
functional operation of the F-RAM is similar to serial flash and
serial EEPROMs. The major difference between the FM25V01
and a serial flash or EEPROM with the same pinout is the
F-RAM's superior write performance, high endurance, and low
power consumption.
Memory Architecture
When accessing the FM25V01, the user addresses 16K
locations of eight data bits each. These eight data bits are shifted
in or out serially. The addresses are accessed using the SPI
protocol, which includes a chip select (to permit multiple devices
on the bus), an opcode, and a two-byte address. The upper 2 bits
of the address range are 'don't care' values. The complete
address of 14 bits specifies each byte address uniquely.
Most functions of the FM25V01 are either controlled by the SPI
interface or handled by on-board circuitry. The access time for
the memory operation is essentially zero, beyond the time
needed for the serial protocol. That is, the memory is read or
written at the speed of the SPI bus. Unlike a serial flash or
EEPROM, it is not necessary to poll the device for a ready
condition because writes occur at bus speed. By the time a new
bus transaction can be shifted into the device, a write operation
is complete. This is explained in more detail in the interface
section.
Serial Peripheral Interface – SPI Bus
The FM25V01 is a SPI slave device and operates at speeds up
to 40 MHz. This high-speed serial bus provides
high-performance serial communication to a SPI master. Many
common microcontrollers have hardware SPI ports allowing a
direct interface. It is quite simple to emulate the port using
ordinary port pins for microcontrollers that do not. The FM25V01
operates in SPI Mode 0 and 3.
SPI Overview
The SPI is a four-pin interface with Chip Select (CS), Serial Input
(SI), Serial Output (SO), and Serial Clock (SCK) pins.
The SPI is a synchronous serial interface, which uses clock and
data pins for memory access and supports multiple devices on
the data bus. A device on the SPI bus is activated using the CS
pin.
The relationship between chip select, clock, and data is dictated
by the SPI mode. This device supports SPI modes 0 and 3. In
both of these modes, data is clocked into the F-RAM on the rising
edge of SCK starting from the first rising edge after CS goes
active.
The SPI protocol is controlled by opcodes. These opcodes
specify the commands from the bus master to the slave device.
After CS is activated, the first byte transferred from the bus
Document Number: 001-84492 Rev. *F
master is the opcode. Following the opcode, any addresses and
data are then transferred. The CS must go inactive after an
operation is complete and before a new opcode can be issued.
The commonly used terms in the SPI protocol are as follows:
SPI Master
The SPI master device controls the operations on a SPI bus. An
SPI bus may have only one master with one or more slave
devices. All the slaves share the same SPI bus lines and the
master may select any of the slave devices using the CS pin. All
of the operations must be initiated by the master activating a
slave device by pulling the CS pin of the slave LOW. The master
also generates the SCK and all the data transmission on SI and
SO lines are synchronized with this clock.
SPI Slave
The SPI slave device is activated by the master through the Chip
Select line. A slave device gets the SCK as an input from the SPI
master and all the communication is synchronized with this
clock. An SPI slave never initiates a communication on the SPI
bus and acts only on the instruction from the master.
The FM25V01 operates as an SPI slave and may share the SPI
bus with other SPI slave devices.
Chip Select (CS)
To select any slave device, the master needs to pull down the
corresponding CS pin. Any instruction can be issued to a slave
device only while the CS pin is LOW. When the device is not
selected, data through the SI pin is ignored and the serial output
pin (SO) remains in a high-impedance state.
Note A new instruction must begin with the falling edge of CS.
Therefore, only one opcode can be issued for each active Chip
Select cycle.
Serial Clock (SCK)
The Serial Clock is generated by the SPI master and the
communication is synchronized with this clock after CS goes
LOW.
The FM25V01 enables SPI modes 0 and 3 for data
communication. In both of these modes, the inputs are latched
by the slave device on the rising edge of SCK and outputs are
issued on the falling edge. Therefore, the first rising edge of SCK
signifies the arrival of the first bit (MSB) of a SPI instruction on
the SI pin. Further, all data inputs and outputs are synchronized
with SCK.
Data Transmission (SI/SO)
The SPI data bus consists of two lines, SI and SO, for serial data
communication. SI is also referred to as Master Out Slave In
(MOSI) and SO is referred to as Master In Slave Out (MISO). The
master issues instructions to the slave through the SI pin, while
the slave responds through the SO pin. Multiple slave devices
may share the SI and SO lines as described earlier.
The FM25V01 has two separate pins for SI and SO, which can
be connected with the master as shown in Figure 2.
Page 4 of 21
FM25V01
For a microcontroller that has no dedicated SPI bus, a
general-purpose port may be used. To reduce hardware
resources on the controller, it is possible to connect the two data
pins (SI, SO) together and tie off (HIGH) the HOLD and WP pins.
Figure 3 shows such a configuration, which uses only three pins.
Serial Opcode
After the slave device is selected with CS going LOW, the first
byte received is treated as the opcode for the intended operation.
FM25V01 uses the standard opcodes for memory accesses.
Invalid Opcode
Most Significant Bit (MSB)
If an invalid opcode is received, the opcode is ignored and the
device ignores any additional serial data on the SI pin until the
next falling edge of CS, and the SO pin remains tristated.
The SPI protocol requires that the first bit to be transmitted is the
Most Significant Bit (MSB). This is valid for both address and
data transmission.
Status Register
The 128-Kbit serial F-RAM requires a 2-byte address for any
FM25V01 has an 8-bit Status Register. The bits in the Status
read or write operation. Because the address is only 14 bits, the
Register are used to configure the device. These bits are
first two bits, which are fed in are ignored by the device. Although
described in Table 3 on page 7.
these two bits are ‘don’t care’, Cypress recommends that these
bits be set to 0s to enable seamless transition to higher memory
densities.

SPI Modes
FM25V01 may be driven by a microcontroller with its SPI
peripheral running in either of the following two modes:
■
SPI Mode 0 (CPOL = 0, CPHA = 0)
■
SPI Mode 3 (CPOL = 1, CPHA = 1)
For both these modes, the input data is latched in on the rising
edge of SCK starting from the first rising edge after CS goes

active. If the clock starts from a HIGH state (in mode 3), the first
rising edge after the clock toggles is considered. The output data
is available on the falling edge of SCK.
The two SPI modes are shown in Figure 4 on page 6 and Figure
5 on page 6. The status of the clock when the bus master is not
transferring data is:
■
SCK remains at 0 for Mode 0
■
SCK remains at 1 for Mode 3
Page 5 of 21
FM25V01
The device detects the SPI mode from the status of the SCK pin
when the device is selected by bringing the CS pin LOW. If the
SCK pin is LOW when the device is selected, SPI Mode 0 is
assumed and if the SCK pin is HIGH, it works in SPI Mode 3.

The FM25V01 will power up with writes disabled. The WREN
command must be issued before any write operation. Sending
the WREN opcode allows the user to issue subsequent opcodes
for write operations. These include writing the Status Register
(WRSR) and writing the memory (WRITE).
Sending the WREN opcode causes the internal Write Enable
Latch to be set. A flag bit in the Status Register, called WEL,
indicates the state of the latch. WEL = ’1’ indicates that writes are
permitted. Attempting to write the WEL bit in the Status Register
has no effect on the state of this bit – only the WREN opcode can
set this bit. The WEL bit will be automatically cleared on the rising
edge of CS following a WRDI, a WRSR, or a WRITE operation.
This prevents further writes to the Status Register or the F-RAM
array without another WREN command. Figure 6 illustrates the
WREN command bus configuration.

Bit 0
Don’t care
This bit is non-writable and always returns ‘0’ upon read.
Bit 1 (WEL)
Write Enable
WEL indicates if the device is write enabled. This bit defaults to ‘0’ (disabled) on power-up.
WEL = '1' --> Write enabled
WEL = '0' --> Write disabled
Bit 2 (BP0)
Block Protect bit ‘0’
Used for block protection. For details, see Table 4 on page 7.
Bit 3 (BP1)
Block Protect bit ‘1’
Used for block protection. For details, see Table 4 on page 7.
Bit 4-6
Don’t care
These bits are non-writable and always return ‘0’ upon read.
Bit 7 (WPEN)
Write Protect Enable bit Used to enable the function of Write Protect Pin (WP). For details, see Table 5 on page 7.
Bits 0 and 4-6 are fixed at ‘0’; none of these bits can be modified.
Note that bit 0 (“Ready or Write in progress” bit in serial flash and
EEPROM) is unnecessary, as the F-RAM writes in real-time and
is never busy, so it reads out as a ‘0’. An exception to this is when
the device is waking up from sleep mode, which is described in
Sleep Mode on page 10. The BP1 and BP0 control the software
write-protection features and are nonvolatile bits. The WEL flag
indicates the state of the Write Enable Latch. Attempting to
directly write the WEL bit in the Status Register has no effect on
its state. This bit is internally set and cleared via the WREN and
WRDI commands, respectively.
BP1 and BP0 are memory block write protection bits. They
specify portions of memory that are write-protected as shown in
Table 4.
The BP1 and BP0 bits and the Write Enable Latch are the only
mechanisms that protect the memory from writes. The remaining
write protection features protect inadvertent changes to the block
protect bits.
The write protect enable bit (WPEN) in the Status Register
controls the effect of the hardware write protect (WP) pin. When
the WPEN bit is set to '0', the status of the WP pin is ignored.
When the WPEN bit is set to '1', a LOW on the WP pin inhibits a
write to the Status Register. Thus the Status Register is
write-protected only when WPEN = '1' and WP = '0'.
Table 5 summarizes the write protection conditions.

FM25V01
RDSR - Read Status Register
WRSR - Write Status Register
The RDSR command allows the bus master to verify the
contents of the Status Register. Reading the status register
provides information about the current state of the
write-protection features. Following the RDSR opcode, the
FM25V01 will return one byte with the contents of the Status
Register.
The WRSR command allows the SPI bus master to write into the
Status Register and change the write protect configuration by
setting the WPEN, BP0 and BP1 bits as required. Before issuing
a WRSR command, the WP pin must be HIGH or inactive. Note
that on the FM25V01, WP only prevents writing to the Status
Register, not the memory array. Before sending the WRSR
command, the user must send a WREN command to enable
writes. Executing a WRSR command is a write operation and
therefore, clears the Write Enable Latch.

Memory Operation
The SPI interface, which is capable of a high clock frequency,
highlights the fast write capability of the F-RAM technology.
Unlike serial flash and EEPROMs, the FM25V01 can perform
sequential writes at bus speed. No page register is needed and
any number of sequential writes may be performed.
Write Operation
All writes to the memory begin with a WREN opcode with CS
being asserted and deasserted. The next opcode is WRITE. The
WRITE opcode is followed by a two-byte address containing the
14-bit address (A13-A0) of the first data byte to be written into
the memory. The upper two bits of the two-byte address are
ignored. Subsequent bytes are data bytes, which are written
sequentially. Addresses are incremented internally as long as
the bus master continues to issue clocks and keeps CS LOW. If
Document Number: 001-84492 Rev. *F
X
the last address of 3FFFh is reached, the counter will roll over to
0000h. Data is written MSB first. The rising edge of CS
terminates a write operation. A write operation is shown in Figure
10.
Note When a burst write reaches a protected block address, the
automatic address increment stops and all the subsequent data
bytes received for write will be ignored by the device.
EEPROMs use page buffers to increase their write throughput.
This compensates for the technology’s inherently slow write
operations. F-RAM memories do not have page buffers because
each byte is written to the F-RAM array immediately after it is
clocked in (after the eighth clock). This allows any number of
bytes to be written without page buffer delays.
Note If the power is lost in the middle of the write operation, only
the last completed byte will be written.
Page 8 of 21
FM25V01
Read Operation
FAST READ opcode is followed by a two-byte address
containing the 14-bit address (A13-A0) of the first byte of the
read operation and then a dummy byte. The dummy byte inserts
a read latency of 8-clock cycle. The fast read operation is
otherwise the same as an ordinary read operation except that it
requires an additional dummy byte. After receiving opcode,
address, and a dummy byte, the FM25V01 starts driving its SO
line with data bytes, with MSB first, and continues transmitting
as long as the device is selected and the clock is available. In
case of bulk read, the internal address counter is incremented
automatically, and after the last address 3FFFh is reached, the
counter rolls over to 0000h. When the device is driving data on
its SO line, any transition on its SI line is ignored. The rising edge
of CS terminates a fast read operation and tristates the SO pin.
A Fast Read operation is shown in Figure 12.
After the falling edge of CS, the bus master can issue a READ
opcode. Following the READ command is a two-byte address
containing the 14-bit address (A13-A0) of the first byte of the
read operation. The upper two bits of the address are ignored.
After the opcode and address are issued, the device drives out
the read data on the next eight clocks. The SI input is ignored
during read data bytes. Subsequent bytes are data bytes, which
are read out sequentially. Addresses are incremented internally
as long as the bus master continues to issue clocks and CS is
LOW. If the last address of 3FFFh is reached, the counter will roll
over to 0000h. Data is read MSB first. The rising edge of CS
terminates a read operation and tristates the SO pin. A read
operation is shown in Figure 11.
Fast Read Operation
The FM25V01 supports a FAST READ opcode (0Bh) that is
provided for code compatibility with serial flash devices. The

HOLD Pin Operation
HIGH while SCK is LOW will resume an operation. The
transitions of HOLD must occur while SCK is LOW, but the SCK
and CS pin can toggle during a hold state.
The HOLD pin can be used to interrupt a serial operation without
aborting it. If the bus master pulls the HOLD pin LOW while SCK
is LOW, the current operation will pause. Taking the HOLD pin

pin. On the next falling edge of CS, the device will return to
normal operation within tREC time. The SO pin remains in a HI-Z
state during the wakeup period. The device does not necessarily
respond to an opcode within the wakeup period. To start the
wakeup procedure, the controller may send a “dummy” read, for
example, and wait the remaining tREC time.
A low-power sleep mode is implemented on the FM25V01
device. The device will enter the low-power state when the
SLEEP opcode B9h is clocked in and a rising edge of CS is
applied. When in sleep mode, the SCK and SI pins are ignored
and SO will be HI-Z, but the device continues to monitor the CS

Device ID
The FM25V01 device can be interrogated for its manufacturer,
product identification, and die revision. The RDID opcode 9Fh
allows the user to read the manufacturer ID and product ID, both
of which are read-only bytes. The JEDEC-assigned
manufacturer ID places the Cypress (Ramtron) identifier in bank
7; therefore, there are six bytes of the continuation code 7Fh
followed by the single byte C2h. There are two bytes of product
ID, which includes a family code, a density code, a sub code, and
the product revision code.

Endurance
The FM25V01 devices are capable of being accessed at least
1014 times, reads or writes. An F-RAM memory operates with a
read and restore mechanism. Therefore, an endurance cycle is
applied on a row basis for each access (read or write) to the
memory array. The F-RAM architecture is based on an array of
rows and columns of 2K rows of 64-bits each. The entire row is
internally accessed once, whether a single byte or all eight bytes
are read or written. Each byte in the row is counted only once in
an endurance calculation. Table 7 shows endurance calculations
for a 64-byte repeating loop, which includes an opcode, a starting
address, and a sequential 64-byte data stream. This causes
each byte to experience one endurance cycle through the loop.
F-RAM read and write endurance is virtually unlimited even at a
40-MHz clock rate.
