The IC component S29AL016J70FAN020 is a 16-megabit (2 megabyte) non-volatile flash memory chip manufactured by Cypress Semiconductor. Here is an overview and key features of this component:
1. Memory Capacity: The S29AL016J70FAN020 offers a total storage capacity of 16 megabits, which is equivalent to 2 megabytes (MB). This amount of memory is commonly used in various electronic devices for data storage.
2. Non-volatile Flash Memory: It is a non-volatile memory chip, meaning it retains stored information even when the power supply is disconnected. This makes it suitable for storing important data that should not be lost during power cycles.
3. Organization: The S29AL016J70FAN020 uses a uniform 16-bit word architecture for data access. It is organized in the form of blocks, sectors, and pages, allowing for efficient programming, erasing, and reading of data.
4. High Speed: This flash memory component operates at high speeds, supporting a maximum access time of 70 nanoseconds (ns). The quick access time enhances the overall performance of the system by reducing data transfer delays.
5. Low Power Consumption: The S29AL016J70FAN020 is designed to minimize power consumption. It features a standby mode where the chip operates at low power levels when it is not actively reading or writing data
