M25P10-AVMN6 datasheet by STMicroelectronics

M25P10-AVMN6 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum number of erase cycles for the M25P10-AVMN6?
  The M25P10-AVMN6 has a minimum of 100,000 erase cycles per sector, and a total of 1,000,000 erase cycles for the entire device.
• How do I handle page write buffer management for the M25P10-AVMN6?
  The M25P10-AVMN6 has a 256-byte page write buffer. To handle buffer management, you should ensure that the buffer is fully written before issuing a write enable command. You can also use the 'Write Enable Latch' (WEL) bit to monitor the write buffer status.
• What is the recommended power-up sequence for the M25P10-AVMN6?
  The recommended power-up sequence for the M25P10-AVMN6 is to apply VCC first, followed by VPP (if used), and then the clock signal. This ensures that the device is properly initialized and ready for operation.
• How do I implement data retention for the M25P10-AVMN6?
  To ensure data retention, the M25P10-AVMN6 requires a minimum VCC voltage of 1.8V and a maximum temperature of 85°C. Additionally, the device should be powered down correctly to prevent data corruption.
• What is the purpose of the 'Protect' pin on the M25P10-AVMN6?
  The 'Protect' pin (PIN 1) is used to enable or disable the write protection feature. When the pin is tied to VCC, the device is write-protected, and when it is tied to GND, the device is write-enabled.
