FM24CL16B in Cypress / Infineon FM24 & FM25 FRAM Family
The FM24CL16B is a 16-Kbit non-volatile memory family from Infineon Technologies (formerly Cypress Semiconductor) that utilizes Ferroelectric RAM (FRAM) technology. Operating as a drop-in replacement for serial EEPROM, it offers significantly faster write speeds, virtually unlimited endurance, and lower power consumption. It communicates via an I2C interface and is designed for applications that require frequent or rapid data logging where traditional EEPROM endurance limits or write-cycle delays would pose a system bottleneck.

| Part Number | Package | Voltage | Stock |
|---|---|---|---|
| FM24CL16B-GTR (Infineon Technologies) Tape & Reel | SOIC-8 | 2.7V | 14,379 |
| FM24CL16B-DGTR (Infineon Technologies) Tape & Reel | WDFN-8 | 2.7V | 4,893 |
| FM24CL16B-G (Infineon Technologies) | SOIC-8 | 2.7V | 4,803 |
The FM24CL16B variants primarily differ in their physical packaging and delivery formats. The standard 'G' suffix denotes an 8-pin SOIC package, while the 'DG' suffix indicates a smaller 8-pin DFN footprint for space-constrained designs. The 'TR' designation signifies tape-and-reel packaging for automated high-volume SMT assembly. All variants maintain functional compatibility and electrical specifications across the specified industrial temperature range.
