EEPROM ImageEEPROM
  • Excellent Single Event Effects:
    • SELTH LET: > 120 MeV/mg/cm2
    • SEUTH LET (read mode): > 90 MeV/mg/cm2
    • SEUTH LET (write mode): > 18 MeV/mg/cm2
  • JEDEC approved byte wide pinout
  • High Speed:
    • 120, 150 ns maximum access times available
  • High endurance:
    • 10,000 erase/write (in Page Mode), 10-year data retention
  • Page Write Mode:
    • 1 to 64 bytes

Maxwell Technologies’ 28C256T high density 256k-bit EEPROM microcircuit features a greater than 100 krad (Si) total dose tolerance, depending upon space mission. The 28C256T is capable of in-system electrical byte and page programmability. It has a 64-Byte page programming function to make its erase and write operations faster. It also features data polling to indicate the completion of erase and programming operations.

About RAD-PAK® Technology

Maxwell Technologies' patented RAD-PAK® packaging technology incorporates radiation shielding in the microcircuit package. It eliminates the need for box shielding while providing the required radiation shielding for a lifetime in orbit or space mission. In a GEO orbit, RAD-PAK provides greater than 100 krad (Si) radiation dose tolerance. This product is available with screening up to Class S.
