ROHM released the BR24H-5AC series, a 125°C operation compatible I2C bus EEPROMs. Its purpose is to target applications that require data storage under harsh environments.

According the company, the series is the industry’s first to achieve a writing time of 3.5ms by implementing original data writing and reading circuit technology.

Furthermore, the series guarantees up to four million writing cycles by data endurance, which is ideal for data loggings that require frequent data rewrites.

Per a company press release, operating history in non-volatile memory in the system is necessary for safety and traceability requirements in the automotive and industrial equipment sector. EEPROMs are usually adopted over other non-volatile memory such as flash memory in applications that require high reliability, including onboard cameras, airbags, industrial automation systems and servers, due to their ability to reliably write and store data under harsh conditions.

ROHM’s newest series of I2C bus EEPROMs was developed in an effort to reduce process time before shipment in automotive and industrial equipment applications.
