Look who decided to switch with... FRAM in July of last year: APPLICATION NOTE 3886 Benefits of the DS32X35 Accurate Real-Time Clock with Ferroelectric Random Access Memory (RTC + FRAM) Abstract: This application note presents an overview of the DS32X35 family of products. These devices provide an accurate Real-Time Clock with Ferroelectric Random Access Memory (RTC + FRAM) that does not require a battery to maintain its contents. Overview With the introduction of the DS32X35 family of products, Dallas Semiconductor provides nonvolatile memory that does not require a battery. These devices utilize Ferroelectric Random Access Memory (FRAM) technology. FRAM is nonvolatile and performs read/write cycles like RAM. It provides reliable data retention for over 10 years while eliminating the complexities, overhead, and system-level reliability problems caused by EEPROM and other nonvolatile memories. This is an established technology with devices available since 1992. maxim-ic.com Based on the links at their website... it would appear that much of the AMR market, possibly the medical sector as well, is in fact demanding FRAM's cost/performance specs: maxim-ic.com 0\|0
